It’s hard to believe a year ago I packed my car full to the brim and made the 10-hour drive to Wetumpka. It’s hard to imagine that version of myself, painfully optimistic yet full of conviction. I didn’t bear the weight of any doubt; I was to…
Another Auburn baseball season that was filled with anticipation, expectation and numerous accolades has ended in disappointment. The Tigers fell to the Ole Miss Rebels over the weekend in front of a record crowd at Plainsman Park.
I just love when things get exciting in the middle of the week. Fresh after completing my column that ran in Wednesday’s Outlook, filling in for Andy Graham, who is on a much-needed vacation. I immediately saw upwards of 10 notifications from…
I’ve never been much of a gamer. I tried all the games, but they rarely ever stuck for me. It does not mean I do not see the appeal of certain games; they just did not stick. I fell into the sports genre mostly, shocking, coming from the spor…
Hey guys, I’m back. I feel as though I’ve been absent from my work. Although all I’ve been doing for two weeks is sit in my red chair and watch softball for an absurd amount of time for work. I have not seen my coworkers in what feels like ages. I’ll walk into the office with a nice tan, exc…
Memorial Day has long been considered the “unofficial” beginning of summer. It’s a wonderful time of year full of graduations, vacations and warm sunny days. It also happens to coincide with what’s known in the college football world as “spring meetings.”
I know there are plenty of folks who would fight me on this, but the NBA playoffs are by far the best postseason of all the professional sports. Don’t get me wrong, I know there’s nothing like a Game 7 in late October, or the high-stakes stress of the AFC championship game, even the do-or-di…
Butch Thompson has now been the head baseball coach at Auburn University for over a decade. He and the No. 5 Tigers will play their final regular-season series of the year this weekend at Plainsman Park against the No. 4 ranked Georgia Bulldogs.
We are part of the football offseason, where things are just weird and somewhat boring. Obviously, most media companies know that; so its hot take, hypotheticals, depth chart projections — the whole nine yards.
I’ll be taking an opportunity this week to continue my annual tradition of making some college football prognostications shortly after the end of spring practice. Springtime happens to be the most advantageous time of year to peer into the space-time continuum. I think it has something to do…
I’ve talked about gambling before. I believe just a few months into my tenure with Tallapoosa Publishers Inc., I talked about it and my conflicting views on the subject.
The Auburn baseball team won their fourth straight series over the weekend at Plainsman Park against Oklahoma, cementing themselves as one of the best teams in the country.
The 2026 NFL Draft was this Thursday, and I’ve been met with a lack of optimism from some of my closest friends. For them, preparation hasn’t been as diligent, with one saying, “I just haven’t followed it that closely this year.”
The colloquial term for the NCAA Division I Men’s College World Series is “the greatest show on dirt.” For those unfamiliar with the chaos and craze of college baseball’s postseason tournament, the term might seem hyperbolic. I promise, it’s not.
Auburn all but finished up their first spring practice of the Alex Golesh era on Saturday with the traditional A-Day game pitting the Tiger offense versus the Tiger defense. A little over 30,000 fans in attendance witnessed a mix of explosive…
Truthfully, I cannot explain what has come over me as of late. It’s so far out of my wheelhouse that saying it has garnered questions from some of my closest friends and even resulted in my mom saying, “Who are you and what have you done with…
First of all, I just want to congratulate Steven Pearl and the Auburn basketball team for bringing home another championship to the Plains. It might not be the one they had envisioned at the beginning of the season, but it’s worthy of a banne…
I’ll be honest, I’ve never been a big Facebook person. Even when the age of social media dawned for me as someone in Gen Z, it was just at the bottom of the totem pole. I prefer Instagram and Twitter (X) and might be slightly addicted to TikTok.
Bruce Pearl transformed the Auburn basketball program from a doormat in the SEC into one of its most luxurious penthouse apartments over the last decade. They have filled their trophy case with three regular season conference championships, t…
I already wrote about March Madness, so I’m going to hold off writing about that more until it gets dwindled down a little further and maybe do a typical highlight of the Cinderella story later. However, after talking to Horseshoe Bend boys b…
