He just moved up a little in my book with the semi-rant he had today on SVP. He basically called some of the folks on twitter who grilled him for picking Andrew Luck for ROTY and read out loud some of the thousands of tweets he's gotten on the topic.

I don't always agree with some of his opinions. But, he's easily in my top 3 of ESPN personalities and doesn't come off as some cookie cutter host/journalist that seems to plague ESPN in the present day.

This is why you like him? Don't all ESPN personalities read out dissenting tweets sarcastically? That's pretty standard.

I'd like him a lot more if he spelled his first name normally

You could have rubbed elbows with him at Walk Ons for the South Carolina and Alabama games if you like him that much.

I said this is a reason why he moved up even more in my book.


A lot of the espn personalities will read out dissenting tweets when they are actually in the wrong and are just being stubborn.

Yes. Russillo and SVP are the only sports radio I'll listen to, they're pretty well rounded on the topics they cover unlike some who can only do NFL. Russillo really knows his NBA, he's much better than just about every 'analyst' they have that covers the NBA.

Met him and SVP at the radio show before the Bama game on Friday.

Both are cool guys.

He's not as good as SVP, and I'm not sure if it's because they told him he needs to disagree sometimes or not but some of his idea's are just wrong (still way better than mike, mike and colin)
