Here's the latest poster created by ATM trying to steal FSU's legacy for the Aggies.
that's hilarious.

How does Brewster and Jimbo not see how obvious this is. Especially to a young recruit, much less middle aged men.

"backfire" is the word.

He did which makes it all more hysterical. Someone said in the comments of the original tweet that it was an ad for one of the shoe/apparel companies. If what was said was true it was originally about ACC programs that use their product and the success they are having making it to the NFL. The original did not include the average salary amount and was pretty basic.

The most amazing thing to me is that the tweet still exists. As far as I can tell Jalen Ramsey was one of the first if not the first to respond to it. He asked the coach to not use his image to promote a school he did not attend and a coach who did not teach him how to be a DB.

You think the coach would respect that and take the tweet down to avoid legal actions and avoid further embarrassment from the public/media. But he hasn't and the tweet with the response is still there for everyone (including lawyers) to see.

The guy is using the images of eight NFL players to promote a school none of them attended. Has been asked publicly not to do it and is STILL doing it.

I think it is really weird. But, then again there is a lot of weird when it comes to the Texas A&M Aggies.

Well, the NFL and most schools are frigging hawks over their branding. Especially the NFL... just look at the uniform rules. And look to EA Sports regarding colleges.

This is a real minefield here, even without individual's images (in NFL uniforms).

Ramsey kinda laid into them. If he has any FSU fandom left he's likely to take it to the next step.

What legal actions? At worst they’d send a letter demanding they taking down.
