It\u2019s good to be back.<\/p>\n
Back in 2021, I was recruited to join a startup by the name of On3. It was going to be the next big thing in high school recruiting and collegiate sports coverage. And it has ended up being that, and so much more.<\/p>\n
I started off covering Clemson, which took me out of the state of Florida for the first time in my life. With On3 still in its early stages, however, there were changes being made, and the opportunity to be based in my hometown of Miami to give the company a South Florida presence was presented to me.\u00a0<\/p>\n
While it was difficult leaving the Clemson market to cover a new team in Alabama, the next three years allowed me to grow professionally in ways I could have never anticipated.\u00a0<\/p>\n
In early 2025, I deemed it best to take a break from my profession. My time in this field went back to the summer before my sophomore year at the University of Florida. This had been all I\u2019d known for nearly a decade, and I cherished every moment of it. <\/p>\n
But I wanted to now go on a journey of personal growth.<\/p>\n
Florida had been my home for most of my life, but the state of Texas always called me. A die-hard Dallas Cowboys fan since 2007, I made multiple trips to see America\u2019s Team over the years. Of course, each one \u2013 2019 versus Minnesota and the 2024 playoffs versus Green Bay \u2013 ended in a loss.<\/p>\n
Even so, I knew that I wanted to move to the Lone Star State not only for my personal growth, but to open up new career opportunities as well. And when a chance to start covering Texas A&M last September was on the table, I wasted little time making my decision.<\/p>\n
I had opportunities elsewhere at that time. I had opportunities elsewhere with my previous employer. But I want to keep covering the Aggies.<\/p>\n
