Jimmer Fredette's got a posse, and it just happens to be the most harmlessly scary thing on the internet. After CBS Sports' Matt Norlander linked to a letter critical of Fredette's adoring fans at BYU, the letter's author was quickly sniffed out by the Jimmilitia.

This kind of thing that happens from time to time at any university that finds itself with an athletic superstar on its hands. Priorities are different for everyone, and that's not always easy for fans of things besides sports (WHATEVER THOSE ARE!) to square with.
