Not everything is intended to be posted on social media. Ohio Bobcats guard Michael Brown Jr. found that out the hard way, and as a result of his posting, is in a little bit of trouble with the NCAA. The Ohio player posted a TikTok  showing off some behind the scenes footage of the NCAA Tournament bubble in Indianapolis. The video he posted showed off  his personal credentials, and an NCAA worker who was applying the tracking devices that each player and coach must wear inside the bubble.

He then posted another video showing an email from the NCAA asking to take down the video.

The email said:

“For event safety and security reasons, [they] need [Brown] to take it down or edit the post to remove the image of the credential asap.”

Brown deleted the original video but asked  his followers  to “blow this up even more for [him].”

Not too smart.

Maybe they need to take away these guys phones while they’re in the bubble?
