Guesses? Employed by Mizzou? Starts his own paywall website?

Going head-to-head against Gabe? Any ideas?

He sucked arse. Hopefully he’s off the Mizzou beat.

I think he already does a bit of work for the university, helping out with a few classes.

I always enjoyed the content he put out there, have followed him for a very long time. Not sure why so many folks dislike him. He did a good job on the beat.

He's definitely always been more likable than Gabe. I like how he's building suspense to announce his next job like he's a recruit. He should release a top 5 companies he's considered working for on Twitter

After they put up the pay wall, I only read him from time to time. He acted like a journalist and gave the known facts when most of us want to hear the rumors. Tough time for the big newspapers. I wish him the best.

We can start with a couple:
1) Inserted political opinions into what should be strictly "reporting."
2) His football analysis was kindergartener level. I dont know how someone who has watched so much football could be such an idiot when it comes to the subject.

If he would have stuck to just being a reporter, he would have been fine. His opinions/takes/outlooks were just putrid his whole career. He wanted so badly to appear as a Mizzou football expert and he just wasn't. He is a reporter and nothing more (or should be).

I find him miserable. Never cared for him.

I guess when you have jillions of SEC dollars, you can hire someone for "storytelling."

The journalist that publicly announces that he’s not a fan of Mizzou is hired by Mizzou to tell Mizzou stories.
