Yep, sucks for those who built their career in a trade that is all but dead.

Where is ZL these days?

He should be proud. You could see his growth as he ran his start-up message

The Athletic still doesn't have a BYU reporter . . .

How Gordon Monson retains his job at the Trib is nothing short of amazing

He drives traffic.

Whatever he does for the Trib, he'll only get to it once a week.
Seasider
10/26/20 5:20pm
Really? Nice. If we're lucky, maybe the Trib will go to semi-annual the year after that.

Gomo went to bat for us when it really mattered (Big 12) He's also never afraid
Genghis Spreads

Maybe never "afraid"...but also hardly ever committed.

When did he ever hurt the program? No one else had the balls to offer healthy

Hey, that's the way you want to read him — you're certainly welcome to do so.

Gurney's become a well-rounded reporter for both fanbases. I agree.
