They've backed down, LOL...
Originally posted by NCAA: UPDATE: Responding to criticism over its apparent ban on Instagram photos being sent to recruits, the NCAA altered the wording of the education column referenced in the article below and issued a statement late Thursday afternoon clarifying its position.
"There is no NCAA ban of Instagram," the statement read. "Schools just can't alter the content of photos — and to be clear, we do not consider Instagram's filters as content alteration — and then email them directly to recruits."
In case the statement wasn't proof enough of the NCAA's stance, an NCAA spokesman tweeted the amusing photo to the right. So there you have it, coaches. You can send recruits Sepia-toned photos to your heart's content. |
