Tales from the Press Box

My life now has a Frank Beamer story, and as it goes about as my transition to press box reporter has been- awkward and funny. But in the end, I’ve been blessed to see things from a different angle than I ever have.

I’m one of the least likely people you’d see in a professional press box. Ex-high-school-football players, there are plenty of, sure. A lot of people covering the game have personal appreciation for it from their own experiences. I’m also not a ‘professional’- I’m a writer for an SB Nation blog, sure, but I’ve got no professional training.
