For those looking to take their Crimson fandom to the next level, it’s time to stop procrastinating your way through that paper by checking Facebook every three minutes—and time to make the move to Twitter. Here’s a chance to get to know Harvard’s biggest athletes in their everyday lives (without them even realizing it).

The Crimson’s Twitter prowess starts with the men’s basketball team. These guys have honed their tweeting skills, making them the preeminent contributors of 140-character sentences on campus.

Here are a few accounts that stand out.

For a deeper look at the status of the team, a good first stop is @bcrimson10 (junior guard Brandyn Curry). “This hate fuels the fire that's burning on harvards campus. Keep it coming. We absolutely love it #killseason,” he tweeted in late September.

Follow @KWright44 (basketball co-captain Keith Wright) to find some musical insight along with your dose of basketball knowledge: “I better not hear anyone say that tha carter IV is better than cole world: a sideline story,” Wright recently tweeted.

Looking for fashion tips? Look no further than @omcnally11 (co-captain Oliver McNally), who says, “If I ever wrap a sweater around my waist, I'd have to kick my own ass.”

You can also catch up with fellow Crimson ballers @crimson_0 (sophomore guard Laurent Rivard), @wesley_shyamm (freshman forward Wesley Saunders), @dgiger21 (junior forward Dee Giger), and @YeezySmith25 (freshman center Kenyatta Smith).

If you’re hoping to be hear some breaking news about the NBA Lockout, you might want to check up on Harvard alumnus @Jlin7 (Jeremy Lin).

Outside of the basketball team, you can get some financial advice from a quarterback @thenugg16 (senior Collier Winters), who recently pointed out that “If I didn't spend money on food, I would probably be pretty close to a millionaire by now... #justsayin.”

Some other  interesting profiles: @TheBearShirt (Ryan Grimshaw) and @Akillorn19 (Alex Killorn) of the men’s hockey team; @thenscottsaid (Scott Yim) of the men’s volleyball team; @Paulyligs41 (Paul Liguori) of the wrestling team; @JosephinePucci (Josephine Pucci) of the women’s hockey team; and @imEMMAude (Emma Golen) of the women’s basketball team.

And of course, you can get your fill of Harvard sports news by following @THCSports.

So get your fill of #CrimsonSports on Twitter, but be wary—you don’t want to be labeled a #stalker.
