Whole situation is dumb.

Bryan Matthews, Justin Hoke and Jay Tate? Pretty good group.
Take out Hoke and you have an even better group IMO.

The rivals write up says he "took a 4 year sabbatical" from Auburn Sports. I mean, come on.
Pretty funny if you ask me.

Hokes twitter profile used to say managing editor of auburnsports.com. It now says reporter. What's going on?

What a let down if he is the big hire ron referred tk

Dear God I hope it's not Hoke. If it is then Ron Sanders greatly over estimated and over sold the hire to AUC members.

I'm starting to think my fear of Hoke to AUC is very much in play. Bryan just posted on the bunker that he will cover recruiting and will break down the recruiting board position by position and highlight needs. Hoke has already done this in the past 2 weeks. While I don't like the I attitude he uses in some of his posts Hoke is an ok recruiting reporter who on occasion gets the best scoop and is a good writer when longer in depth pieces are done. He is good enough and has done enough to where I can't see him being an assistant team and recruiting reporter.
One thing I will say is even though there has not been much going on or to report Hoke has been the best of the 2 sites reporting basketball stuff since Pearl was hired. Penny was writing more basketball recruiting articles but Hoke was giving the best scoop. I would be completely happy Hoke staying at AUR being the lead basketball team and recruiting guy. Sites may need an exclusive basketball reporter as big as AU basketball may become under Pearl.

I'm tired of the merry go round bullcrap.
Ridiculous even when 247 staff takes shots at rivals

It hasn't been anyone from Auc. You are right. I've seen other 247 writers do it.
I was hoping for some new blood

He's been posting there, right? For like a week or two?

wut u do to him?
I got into a "slight disagreement" with him on one of the Facebook articles he wrote for autigers.com.
He is a big hypocrite. He was trashing JFF when the autograph stuff hit the presses. He was one of the big proponents of the "wait and see" group when The Cam shite came out. Then he was trashing JFF based on accusations only
He was not happy with me but I was right. And he knew it. His entire article was bullshite.
I just don't play that way. I'm basically a straight shooter. Gets me in trouble sometimes.
