I'm now living the American dream. I can't even believe this is actually a reality. My own site, that I own and operate. Mine.

owning a shitty wordpress website is the american dream now?

Loy posted a VIP$ RB big board article today.

Coach D answered with a "My RB Big Board Article is Free, come preview our stuff"

Battle stations in ND recruiting news!

Regardless of how you guys feel about Hopkins, he sure did out kick his coverage in the ladies department.

Everyone's favorite disgraced fanboy masquerading as a journalist has moved on to greener pastures. #JHop has a new site that will be focused on PREMIUM content. PREMIUM! And your hard earned money will stay in Oregon supporting Oregonians!*

*Except for the trip to Disneyland that he's promised all pictures from. Can't wait!

#OregonFirst #MakeOregonGreatAgain #ScoopDuck

Welcome to ScoopDuck | ScoopDuck

(Seriously, go read his "welcome" it's hialriously self-important, self-indulgent, and PREMIUM!)

Eh. I don't think it comes across as self-important. I just think he's an atrocious writer.

He is DEFINITELY an atrocious writer. I would proofread it and send the corrections to his email, but that would take too much of my time.

For what it's worth, BGI (rivals) is absolutely crushing 247 these days, in terms of amount of content. IMO, it's not even close.

Noticed that as well. The site was dead for months but now that they have the pieces in place it's awesome. Love the weekly chats even though I feel like they talk about the same thing every week lol. Driskell can break down football and so can Jamie but don't argue with Driskell about his points because he is never wrong. 247 is lacking a football guy big time. I can really do without Evan Sharpley, I have no idea what he brings to the board.

I believe Evan was one of the first to call out this defense last year in a big big way.

Loy said this morning that he expects, at some point, Irish247 and IrishIllustrated (scout) will be one site now that CBS owns both.

I figured this was bound to happen. I hope that all the II guys can stay.

I would assume they would. Don't they have some sort of ownership in the Irish Illustrated brand/name? Similarly to Lou S and Blue and Gold Illustrated, doesn't he have some ownership in that? I could be way off but if not, how does that work?

I don't know who has the ownership in II. I was worried more about The Couv.

they have to do crystal ball picks now and they use the cbs platform so they look identical but DON'T in anyway work w/ 247 reporters, share info and you have to subscribe to one or other etc.....so NO changes to the subscribers or workers...just a little added bonus i guess you could say

Something's gotta give. Maybe they'll find Loy a gig in SoCal or Tallahassee?
Yeah I don't want him to lose his job, but Loy is definitely the guy I'd move out, due to personal preference.

He tweeeted not too long ago about a multi-year extension with 247. So he’ll be on the network. Didn’t say anything about ND (at least on Twitter).

This is pretty funny as Loy has long called himself "the best" on the ND beat. Puffed out his chest and showered himself with praise every chance he gets. And gets very very defensive when he's put on the spot. Now he's incredibly complimentary towards Sinclair and the II guys. Wondering how sharing the limelight will go.

My guess is he's far too big of a tool to do that. A lot of egos with Loy, Wiltfong, Prister, and Sampson. Sinclair is just a boss

Haha, Rivals gave a fake kid a 3 star rating because "he" tweeted an Alabama offer.

Apparently they even had an evaluation write-up... I would have loved to have seen it lol
