The SEC needs to improve its journalism programs

the big10 has some journalism giants, and they really do fill the rolls at the major networks and national newspapers
and this isn't an, "ESPN HATES LSU" rant. it is just shitty to listen to the typical condescending attitude and defense of the big10/notre dame. it goes beyond CFB, but you see it biggest in CFB
*ETA: this comment is inspired by this CFN discussion: Is the Big10 That Bad?
Teddy Greenstein:
Attended: Northwestern University
you will constantly see the same snide comments all over the major networks, especially toward the end of the CFB season
just go look at the big talking heads/writers across the country and you will see so many northwestern, michigan, notre dame, etc grads it isn't funny

UGA has an excellent journalism school - it produced Lewis Grizzard.

i may be ignorant, but how many writers for big market papers or analysts/studio people for big networks come from UF or UGA (and i'm limiting this to just sports reporting)
woody page is a big name and he went to UT. bayless went to Vandy. that's all i can think of off the top of my head (not counting former players who get analyst roles due to their playing, not writing)

wouldn't they fill roles not bread rolls?

rolls like election rolls, payrolls, etc. a list/roster
quote:
1 a (1): a written document that may be rolled up : scroll; specifically : a document containing an official or formal record <the rolls of parliament> (2): a manuscript book b: a list of names or related items : catalog c: an official list

oh yeah this reminds me of a thread i was going to make on the rant last week
in TSN's national CFB preview it says that KW has major fumbling issues
if you don't believe that CFB writers just steal shite they read on message boards, you need no other proof

they could've just stole it from Miles' post spring game comments. i'm sure thats a huge part of what they look at.
yeah, 12gauge, murphy may be the first guy with a youtube of highlights from a spring game.

murphy made those white walkon LBs who are 5-3, 180 lbs look silly son

Did you notice in that clip, the first run was a long run around the edge and then the second was that same run from just a different angle?
