RIP in Peace, man.

quote:

Brian Perroni:


-Taylor has done a great job of covering A&M over the years but he called me to let me know that 247Sports and CBS have decided to go in a different direction in the market.

-From talking to people since then, I will be covering recruiting - a role that I did for a long time and that I still love to do as evidenced by my focus on finding the younger players and the sleepers. I will be much more involved in covering the everyday A&M recruiting battles now, though.

-Tarp will still be focusing heavily on the team.

-The company will be bringing on another writer in the near future as well.

I enjoyed working with Taylor the past three or four years and I definitely wish him the best of luck. You guys are free to speak your mind but I ask that any conversation about Taylor stay in this thread.

I'm surprised it took this long.

Did they have to give him his Pink Slip under a restroom stall door?

He was terrible at this job. He needs a new direction and a new career.

Rest in peace in peace?

I actually liked him at 247. Most entertaining, delusional board on the network

Guy was a douche. Shame he lost his job, but that's what happens when you think you're untouchable.

Still don't know what happened to Bartow.

Sucks for Hamm, think he has a couple of young kids. He seems like a resourceful guy though and will probably land something pretty quickly.

Daddy is too busy selling real estate and breaking down footage.

Are you still on Geaux247? I pretty much gave up following recruiting and unsubscribed. I saw Scout was purchased. Are there any new additions to Geaux247 ?

+1

Gave up after S/S were pumping up O way too much. Do wonder if they're still championing him as much as they were? Hamm and the Junction provided endless laughs. That fan-base is so delusional.

No. I got out after the coaching change and pumping ponamskys coach O is a great option stuff. If they ever allow you to cancel online I would go back. Having to call in to cancel just to keep you from canceling is a bit much.

Are you an A&M fan?

I was just reading the thread https://tamu.247sports.com/Board/20/Contents/A-heads-up-on-some-GigEm247-changes-105464957
and am really surprised. People are talking about cancelling their subscriptions. I thought even the Aggie fans hated the guy. It seems like that board has almost self-imploded a few times the last couple years over crap he has started.

You don't even have to call to cancel. I just left because there's too many tards like Nam and Ice17 over there that it became pointless to click on any thread
