    I had a hell of a time until they hired a couple editors I happened to know.

    Looks like The Athletic is moving into Atlanta, and has started by picking off the AJC's top two sports writers, David O'Brien and Jeff Schultz.

    I am surprised The Athletic hasn't hired more college football writers with practice starting soon.

    Would The Athletic ever create a Boise site? Maybe a Boise/Spokane site that covers Boise State, Gonzaga and Wazzu?

    Interesting that they hired a few recent college graduates. Trying to save some money?

    I noticed that, too. Seems a little odd if you want people to pay for it. I'd favor someone with at least some experience. Maybe that's obvious, but as I'm sure many people on this board would say, save money on Rick Reilly et al.

    This college rollout makes me feel less and less optimistic about this company’s future.

    I don’t see Johns Hopkins.
    Who’s going to cover D3?
