With now having some downtime since early September, finally was able to finish my new 🏈football reel. It was another fun season which featured calling several Top 10 FCS match-ups, the biggest Cat-Griz meeting and the Big Sky Championship Game. Again thankful for everyone with

The fact Damar’s mom was in the stands, saw what happened to her child & rode with him to the hospital is absolutely gut wrenching. I can’t imagine what she’s going through. I can’t imagine what any parent would be feeling in a situation like this. Again hope for a miracle
The only time I ever got to cover a game at Bud Walton Arena was that 2018 OT battle with Tennessee. Loudest college basketball atmosphere I’ve ever experienced to this point. I’m sure Hog fans will be taking it up an even bigger notch vs Kentucky
📺MUST WATCH: Carson Shaddy, Grant Koch & Heston Kjerstad describe how special this year and team was.
Kjerstad: "There's no group of guys I'd rather go on that field and play Game 3 of the National Championship with. Going forward we have a bond that will last a lifetime."

My guess is that Blaine Knight’s day is done. Once again, to no one’s surprise, solid in his start.
Probably the final time he walks off the mound in a Razorback uniform. Hell of a career in Fayetteville. A tip of the cap to the former Bryant Hornet 👏🏻👏🏻👏🏻👏🏻👏🏻

“My initial thought was she’s 48-years-old and I’m about to lose my wife and we gotta figure out how to do this.” 😢
My heart continues to break for Blake Anderson. Tom Rinaldi did an AMAZING job with this story portraying the impact Wendy Anderson had
Oregon State lost their first game of the CWS last year and went on to win the whole thing. Just saying, it’s not over. There’s a reason why this tournament is double elimination

Just a quick reminder:
Please be respectful of a recruit’s decision. If they don’t chose to commit to your school or decommit from the team you love, don’t bash them on social media. They’re just doing what they believe is right for them. Don’t be a jerk

My long goodbye to a great guy with a BIG personality:
@Mitch_Petrus
One of the nicest people I have ever met. I'll appreciate his energy, the random phone calls, his kindness and, probably most of all, him reaching out when I was still adjusting to living in Arkansas. RIP Mitch
I know it has to suck and it’s really hard to be positive right now. But I’m gonna try to be. Like Blaine Knight told us just now in the locker room, the world’s not ending. Gotta have a short memory. Still got another game tomorrow and another chance for a title
Sorry if I’m blowing up your timelines today but I gotta keep sharing clips of my buddy Mitch Petrus. He tried impersonating me on air and I had to bust him for it after he thought I wouldn’t see it 😂
#RIPMitch
It’s Ole Miss Game Week 🗓
Night game, in the Capital City, against an SEC foe. Really hoping to see Hog fans pack this place and make it loud come Saturday night

This is probably my favorite segment with
@Mitch_Petrus
. We're in Starkville back in 2016 when
@RazorbackFB
beat Mississippi State in that 58-42 shootout. This shows not only his INFECTIOUS personality but also his knowledge about the alma mater and team he loves
#RIPMitch
Not a bad night for Bobby Portis. The former Hog finishes with a double-double in his return to the Bulls from his eight-game suspension. 21 points, 13 rebounds, 4 assists
#WPS
Another note from last night. When we talked to Dom Fletcher in the locker room, he said TD Ameritrade was like
“Baum Stadium on steroids”
Easy to understand why he’d say that when you saw the huge amount of red in the park. Sure it’ll be a similar scene tonight
Wes Johnson on Blaine Knight: "Young man's 14-0 and he's beat everybody in the country. He's the best guy in college baseball on the mound in a big game. I'll take him over anybody in the country."

However I wanna try to keep Mitch’s spirit alive under the lights. So I will be wearing his jersey EVERY game I cover on the sidelines in 2019 to help remember a great guy & friend
🚨 A personal update. Thank you, Arkansas for everything! I absolutely loved my time in the Natural State ⚔️🐗🐻🐺🦁.
Hopefully I’ll come back and visit someday.
