As a commentator on the
#ATP
Challenger Circuit, I can honestly tell you that every night before calling matches, I'm up until 2-3 AM doing prep work. Showing up to work studied and well-researched is a sign of respect to the players, which they deserve.
Insane to me that time and time again J. McEnroe goes on air and just admits he has zero clue who a player is. (Today, bergs, 120 atp) just says to the world, hey guys, I’ve done zero research for my job and I’m just going to disrespect someone who’s top 150 in the world at a job
Now that it's officially official I can announce. I'm getting back in the TV game, and with ESPN. I'll be broadcasting college volleyball for them.
My first assignment is on October 1st on SEC Network at LSU as they take on Mississippi State.
Thank you all for your support.
Growing up without a father for most of my life, I’ve longed for a way to use my experiences to help others.
This Saturday, I signed up for Big Brothers Big Sisters with the intention of mentoring a boy who doesn’t have a dad.
I went them to know they’re not alone.
Really excited to announce that I’m joining Tennis Channel. I’ll begin broadcasting for them at the end of this month. I’ll be continuing to do radio as well. This is in honor of you, Dad. I miss you and love you. Thank you to all who’ve supported me through this process. 🎾🎾🎾
Autograph seekers and picture takers regale in the win of former world number 4 Kei Nishikori, winning a quick 2-setter in the first round here in Michigan.

The AP college football coach of the year award needs to go to Washington State's Jake Dickert. He's winning, and won back over a locker room mid-year. That's 2 winning seasons in 1. The unifier, in the face of division, w/ the mettle to galvanize the program and bring hope.
Hiring Eric Bieniemy as offensive coordinator/associate HC signals

's commitment to an increased excellence on the field, and an intolerance for the previous status quo.
Recruiting spikes and glistens w/ Bieniemy. He'll walk into a room, work the room, and win the room.
I’ve done hundreds and hundreds of hours of interviewing and telling the stories of others.
Now it's my time to share my story, the things you don’t know as I begin the process of unpacking those layers.
My struggles with anxiety, depression, grief and sleep apnea, and how I
My heart goes out to all involved with the Holiday Bowl. Thinking of UCLA and NC State, but also - traveling fans, stadium workers, ushers, grounds crew, security guards, and the heaps of other unrecognized people - working behind the scenes around the clock on the event.
Happy to report that Corgi Beach Day was a success. Hundreds and thousands of corgis took over Huntington Beach. Ours is the one with the lady bug outfit on ;).
I got some really exciting news to share!
This Saturday on ESPNU, I'll be calling a mega exciting men's volleyball match between two powerhouses: Long Beach State and Hawai'i.
First serve is 7:30 PT.
Thank you all for your support. I'm very, very grateful for all of you.
The world needs more people like Jerry Shang.
During his 1R match at the Lexington Challenger, a ball kid on court momentarily appeared to have lost consciousness.
Shang picked up the kid and carried him to shade, handed him water and placed ice behind his head until help came.

This young UCLA team played like a top 15 team tonight against Marquette.
Tonight clearly indicated that this Bruin team, with all their freshmen and international prospects, is way ahead of schedule.
There's no rebuild with Sebastian Mack in the lineup.
So grateful to announce I'll be having my ESPN debut coming up in November calling college tennis on ESPNU. As soon as I get the actual times of the broadcast, I'll post them here. Thank you all for your support :)
Kelly and I felt so much love to all who showed up to our West Coast wedding celebration. So many wonderful people including

Oregon State running back BJ Baylor
@FTF_Prez
is the best running back in the country who you might not have heard of, which needs to change. The word needs to get out about his skills because he’s the real deal.
Why in the world is Oregon State not in this week's latest AP Top 25 poll? Not that Beaver players frankly care considering they control their own destiny. Plus, they're firmly aware this oversight comes from powerless, out of touch sports writers. This is all motivational fuel.
Twitter is a cesspool for negativity. If you're in the market for positive content and inspiration, head over to my YouTube channel and subscribe away. You'll find interviews with media stars from talent, executive producers to influential athletes.
I want to let you in on a little secret. His name is Calvin Tyler Jr., a Utah State running back. He’s been crushing it lately. His 1-year old son is his motivation. Dad, Calvin, has promised his son, “We’re going places.’’ It’s clear Dad is a man of his word.
@BlessedAthleteC
Take that haters. UCLA is on to the Elite 8. I got so much crap on social media and on Fox Sports Radio for supporting this team. Go eat humble pie because the Bruins are still dancing baby and there’s nothing you can do about it.

Head Coach Mike Rhoades
@CoachRhoades
has someone special to build around with star Bones Hyland
@BizzyBones11
. Rhoades professes, "In my 24 years of coaching, I'm not sure if I've ever coached a kid who loves basketball as much as he does."
@VCU_Hoops
With UCLA football and basketball lacking in the NIL space, where are the NFL Bruins and NBA Bruins, and why aren't they speaking up and doing more to help out?
This needs to happen, yesterday.
Happy Birthday to my sweet mom! I don’t know if there’s a way I could ever repay you for everything you did for me as a single mom when I was younger. I love you so much!
You are running out of excuses for discrediting this Oregon State football team. What a bounce back game for the Beavs. Here’s my take on the win over Utah.
UCLA basketball is going to be 10 times better by January.
Another month and change together as a unit, and they will be scary good. With their 7 freshmen and heaps of international talent, the Bruins are so close to breaking out.
The two close losses at the Maui
Fun news to share with you!
I'm extremely grateful to be doing play by play broadcasting for the Big West beach volleyball championships on ESPN+ this spring.
The conference is growing and it's an honor to get to work with such a fun team.

is a self-made, ultra-driven man, who's gonna add a whole lot of sizzle to the

football program as an incoming freshman running back.
Frankly, Qwuantrezz Knight
@qknight4
is not getting enough credit for
#UCLA
football's turnaround. He's ushered in positivity and gotten his teammates to believe more in themselves. He's powerfully upped the team's morale and psyche, which is why his impact is off the scale.
Someone has to say it. The time has come to view Oregon State quarterback Chance Nolan
@chance_nolan
as a dark horse Heisman candidate. His first snap at OSU was a game winning TD vs. Oregon. That’s been a foreshadowing for his playing abilities ever since.
I don’t know what else I need to tell you. As I have been saying for weeks, Oregon State football team is the truth. They are not going anywhere. Get with it people. These guys have some race horses in the running game with BJ Baylor
@FTF_Prez
and company.
