It’s as if he’s only looking for negative stories on covid with players and race related things. He lives for going after coaches like Dabo, Leach, and Gundy.

The guy seems miserable to me. Does he ever write about actual sports

A writer for OM 247 had a pretty intense takedown of Wolken recently.

quote:



Wolken pounds his chest as a national writer for USA Today despite the fact he was only hired because he was unemployed and would work for cheap for an outlet whose criteria in its search for talent was simply semi-large social media followings. At the time, USA Today was lagging behind in new media. Wolken, then, fit. They wouldn’t have to pay him much, and he had some 80,000 Twitter followers, for whatever that’s worth. He doesn’t break news. Actually, what few stories he's led on in the last few years were those Ole Miss-related stories handed to him by Tom Mars, like the "breaking news" on the transfer of Deontay Anderson. Otherwise, he's embarassed himself, as he was when he was exposed for running public relations for then-Tennessee A.D. John Currie in his attempt to hire Greg Schiano. Mars represented Anderson in his quest to bypass NCAA transfer requirements and gain a waiver granting him immediate eligibility. Otherwise, Wolken lazily goes after Ole Miss because his audience at this point -- what gets him his precious radio and podcast interviews -- is angry Ole Miss fans and the Mississippi State fans who live only to hate Ole Miss he panders to. They're pretty much his entire national footprint and traffic.

Yep. When you're talking about him he's winning.

Mississippi State fans hate him just as much. Just look at him and Leach’s beef over the years

He's a clickbait hack. USAToday is hardly better than the National Enquirer now, I remember I used to love reading it

Wolken despises football, the SEC and any SEC team that's doing well. Wolken is a Vandy grad. Yes, he is a miserable shite.

He is a complete dumass. Who makes up for that by being a liar. USATODAY, where this goofus has a "sports column" is a mess. My coffee shop gives then away and people use them for place mats. The payroll budget for the entire editorial staff and writers must be peanuts. The absurdity content is close to 100%.

He should be arrested and charged with conspiracy to incite violence and promote racism.

Do we need Vandy for baseball purposes? They should've gotten the boot long ago. Duke, GT, Wake Forest, Stanford, etc. may be in weaker conferences but they've accomplished far more than V in every sport but baseball so they have no excuse. Dead weight
