Personal news: I have accepted a position as 247Sports' national college football reporter. Beyond excited. It's a dream and I'm humbled. We've been working toward this transition for months. I'm going to miss living in Auburn. Our son was born here. This is will always be a home

He was a good one. Solid coverage. Didn't shill like PMarsh and wasn't a Bammer covering the beat.

Being the best of the worst isn't much to celebrate.

"This will always be a home".  Akin to, "Of all the people I've known, you're certainly one of them."

I only read the quote you posted. In this day and age, why would he have to move?

 Yep.  It's like winning the ugliest dog contest.

I personally thought he was a smug, condescending, rumor mongering Debbie downer. He was rarely ever right on any of his "I am hearing from sources that...." blockbuster stories he peddled to get people to grab subscriptions. He tried to create news. Sorry, but I won't miss the dude.

I’m skeptical and concerned that this is the case but I agree with all of this. ^^
