Another week, another round of hilarious tweets from UVA players and some other gems from around Cavalier Nation. The star of this week's show was starting TE Jay Mathis, who apparently took a liking to his UPS woman. Jamie Oakes of Wahoos247 also makes this week's list by breaking the news that 4-star wide receiver Canaan Severin of Massachusetts picked the Cavaliers over a host of other top programs to become the 25thmember of Virginia's 2012 football recruiting class. With that, let's get to the tweets...

1. As previously mentioned, Jamie Oakes of Wahoos247 reported this week that Virginia received a verbal commitment from 4-star wide receiver Canaan Severin. Severinpicked the Cavaliers over PSU - showing that Coach London can go up against bigger programs and win key recruiting battles. With a 2012 class that now has 7 4-star prospects onboard, Cavalier fans are hopeful that Coach London can start winning these battles on the field as well. If you're a fan of UVA football, follow @Wahoos247 now...and @ChatCavaliers while you're at it. Here's what you'll see from Scoopy Oakes:
@Wahoos247 (Jamie Oakes) – Virginia lands Worcester (MA) Worcester Academy four-star wide receiver Canaan Severin
@Wahoos247 (Jamie Oakes) – Canaan Severin is the seventh four-star prospect to commit to UVa and head coach Mike London in the 2012 recruiting class
2. @Royal_Flush82 (Kevin Royal) – How the hell my mom got a thousand friends on facebook
Ah, the age old conundrum - what happens when your parents decide they need to become hip and sign up for Facebook? As UVA wide receiver Kevin Royal is about to find out, it's all fun and games until mom sees explicit rap lyrics posted on your wall and pictures of your 'fun day' at Foxfield. Not that I would know...but I do have a friend who says it's pretty rough. And yes, it's just a coincidence that I no longer have a Facebook account.
3. @LBow70 (Luke Bowanko) – Dang what a poop practice [Followed later the next morning with the following tweet] @LBow70 - Dang what a poop nights sleep
UVA offensive guard Luke Bowanko seems to be a fixture in the series. While his creative use of the word 'poop' is certainly admirable, one can only hope this type of language doesn't catch on with the rest of the population. We already have enough poopy slang being used these days.

4. @JakeOvaTheWorld – have been being a bad friend to @MORGANMOSES_78 hope he can forgive me
If was nice knowing you, Jake McGee. If #83 no longer appears on special teams for UVA, we can just assume that Big Mo did not accept Jake's twitter apology and ate him. Let this be a lesson to the rest of the Morgan's 'friends' out there.
5. @Battle_Blood (Lovante Battle) – Can somebody come wash my hair?
I've seen Lovante's dreads and I'm guessing nobody took him up on this offer. Just a hunch.

6. @Multimili (Max Millien) – @kburd18 @Dom_Jo23 @supaDUPAFLY_4 @Will_ii_amm who the hell ate my damn gushers? I’m bout to flip everything in yalls room over
The horror, the outrage! You do not touch a man's gushers. Especially a bull like UVA fullback Max Millien. I hope Kris Burd, Dom Joseph, Rodney McLeod and Billy Cuffee got what was coming to them (I mean that in the nicest way possible, of course).
7. @Dom_Jo23 (Dom Joseph) – No jelly for my bagel this morning…This is an outrage
You know what they say about karma - steal a man's gushers and the jelly goes missing. The world always has a way of righting itself.
8. @supaDUPAFLY_4 (Rodney McLeod) – Can’t wait for Saturday we play back in our house..Scott stadium babbyy..
Hopefully Rodney's excitement about playing in Scott Stadium for the next 4 consecutive games is felt by Cavalier fans as well. For Virginia to make it to a bowl game this year, the upcoming home stand is absolutely critical and the fans need to give our team the best home field advantage possible. See you all out there.
9. @BiggE61 (Elton Brown) – UVA this sat vs Southern Miss, jersey being retired at halftime. God is good.
For further enticement to attend this weekend's game, look no further that Cavalier great Elton Brown's tweet that he will be honored at halftime of the game. Watching Big E lead the sweep was a thing of absolute beauty.

10. And finally, what we've all been waiting for...as evident below, Jay Mathis just couldn't contain his excitement when the brown truck pulled up in front of his crib.
@Cavboi81 (Jeremiah Mathis) – Man that UPS lady was niiiiice…was working the hell outta them brown shorts
@Cavboi81 (Jeremiah Mathis) – $hit I know what brown can do for me
That's it for this week. We'll be back again next week with another edition. Keep tweeting, Cavaliers.
