I think perhaps Wilder’s reference to “direct outreach” is being missed here. I’ve heard from good sources this is actually e-mail being sent directly to athlete university accounts. It’s hard to simply “stop” reading criticism when knuckleheads send it directly to you. I think a little empathy and some self-reflection would be appropriate for anyone who throws criticism around so freely at these kids.
