Update: Tight end Reid Fragel posted updates that contradicts his earlier assertion that Urban Meyer has banned Twitter.

Just now finding out the whole twitter thing wasn't exactly true. #hearsay Haha sorry for the confusion, sometimes people decide to put words in others mouths... That's all I have to say about that

Ohio State cornerback Bradley Roby also chimed in.

Lol this twitter stuff is funny. He never told us we can't have twitter.

Don't expect to see any Twitter comments from Ohio State football players in the future. Urban Meyer appears to have instituted a ban on players posting comments on the social media web site.

Meyer put on the restrictions within hours of formally taking over as Buckeyes coach, one day after the school lost to Florida in the Gator Bowl.

As part of an agreement with the NCAA to exceed the school's amount of coaches, Meyer was previously only allowed to recruit even though he was hired on Nov. 29.

The move by Meyer was relayed, conveniently, on Twiter.

Offense Reid Fragel posted the following.

New staff new rules. No more twitter, not a big deal and probably for the better. Love our fans, love this place. Go Bucks #2012

Tight end Jake Stoneburner also mentioned the ban.

Twitter=Done. Me=back for senior year, leading this team, and shocking the world!! #gobucks #12-0

Meyer is returning to coaching after one season as an ESPN analyst. Ohio State is banned from a bowl game in 2012 due to NCAA violations committed by former coach Jim Tressel.
