The Athletic's college football team is stacked, and I could not be more excited to be jumping aboard as a senior editor to do something special with friends new and old. Today's big news all in one place: theathletic.com/1075857/2019…

I am back to rank more CFB broadcasts, including the first time in at least a half-decade I've thought to myself during a Vanderbilt heartbreaker, "This is great television": nytimes.com/athletic/5788614…

I went to a diner in the Midwest to ask the question on everybody’s mind: Did Jim Harbaugh order a bacon cheeseburger for breakfast here? nytimes.com/athletic/5688042…

What you need to know from a very fun college baseball weekend that included series Ls for the No. 1 and No. 2 teams, an 82-pitch shutout, a 43-run game and much more: theathletic.com/5415938/2024…

A fun story I'm excited to share with you: What's it like to recruit another football coach's son? Sometimes it's awesome. Other times it can be a little nerve-wracking. But it's always unique. "It's like asking permission to marry their daughter:" theathletic.com/4603949/2023…

Well, I’m excited to share my final piece for Sports Illustrated, which happens to be this month’s cover story - I went to Paris to find out what makes Victor Wembanyama tick. On the making of a generational prospect: si.com/nba/2023/02/21/victor…

Molly pushed me to raise my game every day we worked together. Nobody cares more about doing good work.
I was laid off by Sports Illustrated today. I came here as a nervous and awed 22-year-old fresh out of college and leave nearly 9 years later having grown immensely. I’ve worked with so many tremendous people and I’m really proud of everything we accomplished.

Here is today’s NC State squad. A few more in the bullpen, but still missing a lot.

ESPN's @TaylorTwellman didn't want to do TV. Today, he's the network's lead soccer analyst and a bold on-camera personality. Twellman on having thick skin, his commentary on Christian Eriksen and the untold story of the"What are we doing!" meme. theathletic.com/2651822/2021…

Day 1 of the Road to Omaha is a top-5 day for me, and my @TheAthleticCFB colleagues did some awesome work to set it up. Warms all four chambers of my quad box heart. @BrodyAMiller on La. Tech: theathletic.com/2628047/2021… @joerexrode on Corbs at Presbyterian: theathletic.com/2627667/2021…

SEC membership is lucrative. No one has left since before Americans landed on the moon. Arkansas has been counting its money for three decades in the league. And fans have been losing. Why a Big 12 move makes sense for the Hogs: theathletic.com/2631894/2021…
