It's been a busy week in the world of Twitter. But in case you missed anything, I've gathered all of the week's best tweets from across campus.
Thad Matta Out
After news on Monday that Thad Matta was fired from his duties as Ohio State men's basketball coach, players past and present took to Twitter to express their appreciation.

Cavs Down 3-0
Despite leading with less than three minutes remaining, the Cleveland Cavaliers dropped Game 3 of the NBA Finals Wednesday night 118-113 to the Golden State Warriors. The loss makes the series a 3-0 deficit for LeBron and Co., despite Joe Burrow's wise words before tip off.
For the cavs to win tonight we need:

Headband Lebron
Jersey Untucked Kyrie
Fat Kevin Love
Kardashianless Tristan
And JR off that Henny
With the loss, there were mixed opinions from Buckeyes on Twitter.
That's cool.. now it's Cavs in 7
