Rich Rodriguez says he's banned his West Virginia players from dancing on TikTok

"No — they’re going to be on [social media] so I’m not banning them from it,” Rodriguez said Monday when asked if he had a social media policy. “I’m just banning them from dancing on it. Look, we try to have a hard edge, whatever, and you’re on there in your tights dancing on TikTok it ain’t quite the image of our program that I want.

“But I told the team today, I said, ‘Everything today’s about trying to make everybody individual, it’s all about the individual. It’s all about the individual.' And I said football is one of the last things that’s got to be more about the team than the individual. And so I just — I banned dancing on TikTok. I guess I did that. But anything that doesn’t look like our program should look like — I think it’s just like come on, really. And I’m allowed to do that I guess. I can have rules.

“Like I said, 20 years from now if they want to be sitting in their pajamas in the basement and eating Cheetos and watching TikTok or whatever the hell they can go at it. Smoking cannabis, whatever. Knock yourself out. But hopefully their focus can be on winning football games. How about let’s win the football game and not win the TikTok.”
