<blockquote class="twitter-tweet" lang="en"><p>Dropped another prospect this AM due to his social media presence...Actually glad I got to see the 'real' person before we offered him.</p>— Herb Hand (@CoachHand) <a href="https://twitter.com/CoachHand/statuses/494457320064421888">July 30, 2014</a></blockquote>

Hand considers Twitter and other social media outlets as branding tools. Those who use them correctly can build their brands; those who don't can destroy them.
"There’s an opportunity in social media that's very powerful to connect with people," Hand said. "It's important for people to understand that before they get involved with it because you also can shoot yourself in the foot real quick. That's one of the problems with a lot of the young guys on there, players we're recruiting. They don't think before they post stuff. They don't realize that this is your brand.
"You're telling the world who you are."
