Rivals went to shite after Dave Childers was forced out. Neal hated Ole Miss for a long time amd it showed in his work. He's come around a bit but he's only doing the bare arse minimum to keep his job at Rivals.

I left Rivals when Dave left. Neal spent years bashing Ole Miss on a non-stop basis - add to the fact that Neal himself had stated he hated college football and didn't even watch it unless he absolutely was forced to do so. Yet, people were quick to wanting to pay his bills, regardless of how much he hates Ole Miss and hated college football. Chase was the only good thing Ole Miss' Rivals had during that time, as he did a great job covering baseball.

Neal lost access to any actual inside information within the program for a very long time. Most of his information was just repeating what other people were reporting, or him just making shite up out of thin air.
