user: IN: Twitter CEO commits NCAA recruiting violation on Twitter
Twitter’s CEO Dick Costolo is a Michigan fan and he committed a NCAA violation. On his own social media network no less.

Wilton Speight is a 2014 quarterback recruit who is committed to Michigan. Over the weekend, he tweeted out a congratulatory message to future teammate George Campbell, a wide receiver in the class of 2015, who recently committed to the Wolverines.

Costolo, who happens to be a Michigan booster, must have forgotten that he is not allowed to contact recruits in any way, shape or form — even after the prospect has signed a National Letter of Intent or any other agreement with the university. And that includes Twitter.

“We are aware of a potential minor violation involving social media,” Michigan spokesman Dave Ablauf told For The Win via email. “We will handle it as appropriate.”

This violation isn’t severe, but rules are rules.

IN: Aroldis Chapman questions how Joe Maddon used him in World Series
A late-season rental and key contributor to the Chicago Cubs’ curse-breaking World Series victory in November, relief pitcher Aroldis Chapman is back in New York, where he lobbed some criticism at Cubs manager Joe Maddon on Friday.

Traded in July from the Yankees to the Cubs for prospects, Chapman returned to The Bronx after finalizing an $86 million, five-year deal on Thursday, the most lucrative contract ever for a reliever.

The 28-year-old met with reporters to discuss his return to the Yankees and also fielded questions about his stint in Chicago, specifically in the World Series when analysts and fans heavily scrutinized the way Maddon deployed his bullpen arms. Via Newsday, here’s Chapman’s assessment on the way Maddon used him:

“Personally, I don’t agree with the way he used me,” Chapman said through a translator, citing specifically Game 6 of the World Series, when he pitched despite the Cubs holding a sizeable lead. “But he is the manager.”

Chapman said he shouldn’t have been pitching in Game 6 of the World Series.

Game was out of hand as you recall. And Chapman remained in the game anyhow.

Chapman said he never told Maddon/Cubs his opinion on the playoff use. Felt that his job was to be ready to do whatever they needed.

The flamethrowing reliever is certainly not the first to voice disagreement over Maddon’s moves in Game 6 and Game 7.

In Game 6, Maddon put Chapman on the mound in the seventh inning when Chicago held a 7-2 lead. He pitched 1.1 innings and into the ninth when Maddon pulled him for Pedro Strop to close a 9-2 game.

But that appearance prevented Chapman from entering fresh in Game 7 — a wild, rain-delayed endeavor for everyone involved that nearly proved disastrous for the Cubs when a fatigued Chapman allowed three hits and two earned runs in the eighth inning as the Indians tied the game at 6-6. He remained in the game in the ninth inning and managed to preserve a tie in a clean inning.

Of course, all is well that ends well. The Cubs won the game 8-7 in extra innings and will get the rings, and Chapman got the big contract.

IN: Ice cube for a better burger? Graham Elliot's bizarre grilling trick
Ice cubes aren't just for chilling sweet tea at summer barbecues. According to "MasterChef" judge Graham Elliot, they can be a great grill accessory.

The chef says the secret to a great burger is putting an ice cube in the middle of the patty before you grill it.

"Make your patties, then put your little ice cube in there and then when you grill it, it keeps it moist and keeps it from getting dried out," Elliot told FoxNews.com.

Elliot also said to be mindful of your meat mixture.

"People always end up doing the same mixture for a burger as they do with meatloaf or a meatball, they put all the pepper and onion in it. You don't want to do that," Elliot said. "You want it to be just straight meat."
