Monitoring Sites with Hawkeye

After reading the article “Monitoring Sites with a Hawkeye”, I agree with the fact that senior leaders of Universities have the right to monitor profiles of athletes. I think this because if an athlete were to put of an inappropriate picture or themselves doing something wrong or bad, it gives them and their team a bad image. Also, if an athlete were to post a picture of a fellow teammate, they could be unintentionally hurting the future of that athlete and student.
Another reason why monitoring profiles is a good idea is to keep athletes safe. For example, if an athlete posts something giving away information about their team or themselves, leaders monitoring the profiles can advice them to take it down. If I were in this situation, I would rather have my profile looked at than possibly putting myself, or others in danger.
Although I am for this specific article and controversy, I can also see why athletes and others could disagree with myself, and the situation. I can see how athletes may think they are being violated of their personal pictures and profiles. These athletes that are against this must believe that it is unconstitutional to go through private profiles. I believe if this is the case, then the athletes need to see that these senior leaders are only doing this for the sake of the school, the specific team, and most importantly, the actual athlete.
I believe that monitoring athlete’s profiles on sites like Myspace and Facebook is for the better. These athletes need to realize that this is for their own team’s good. When being apart of team, you do what’s best for the team as a whole, not just you. Therefore wouldn’t these athletes be willing to do this?
