Ive been thinking about pulling the trigger on an athletic subscription. Does anyone already have one? How is their AU coverage? Is it worth it? I have several other teams I like to follow but AU is most important. I get all my cruiting new form here so Im not really interested in 247/rivals. TIA

Just started the trial.
Quality wise, really good stuff. Ferguson is a perfect fit for a stats nerd like myself. Seems like the national coverage is great/interesting too
I don't know if the constant, play by play type coverage will be there in terms of quantity
Not sure if it is $60/yr or whatever good though

I've had the subscription since last fall and I love it. They always have offers of 30% - 50% off. They also have their own app on the phone. I think I waited until I found a 50% because I'm cheap.
Justin Ferguson does a great job on Auburn Sports. I also like to follow the NHL and they do a great job of that.

Justin Ferguson is the best writer covering Auburn, not particularly close either

Is that why he left Tigerdroppings?

AU coverage is ok, but I have other subscriptions for that so it's hard to say whether The Athletic is really worth it on that basis.
I think I got a deal on it, but it is really good sports journalism in general. I'd probably say I get the most value out of the Braves coverage, but it's just nice to have a place to go read about major sports stories without unnecessary bias, videos, etc.

Ferguson is a pussy. He blocked me on Twitter for no reason.

The Athletic has “damn strong” premium content for every sport and for CFB it’s the best. I have notifications set for Feldman, Stuart Mandel, Justin Ferguson sent straight to my phone when something hits.
I’m a fan of MLB, NFL and NHL outside of NCAA sports so I get a lot of value out of it.

Thought I would bump this thread because The Athletic is running their spring sale for 50% off. Only catch is you have to buy it for the year, which is $30 for a year.
ETA: Link for offer. Also the sale ends at midnight.

Haven’t subscribed but the NBA coverage looks like it’d be good too.
