Waking up to see my favorite college football DFS analyst @ukillbillwalsh.bsky.social wearing an old-school Auburn shirt on the Run Pure Sports show. It's gonna be a great Saturday!

Today was a very cool day. Our students learned a lot, and so did their advisers.

This seems like good, wholesome content to share for my first post here. I'm incredibly proud of our students at The Collegian for all their hard work and accomplishments. The Pacemaker is the equivalent of the Pulitzer in student media circles. 💪
