Some personal news … I have been incredibly blessed and fortunate the past 7 years to work in intercollegiate athletics for a place I love dearly, but yesterday was my last official day at @hailstate @msstate
Huge thank you to my good friend @CoachDanMullen for believing in me and giving me the opportunity to join his staff in 2017.
A heartfelt thank you to @BallCoachJoeMo and the late Mike Leach for allowing me to continue in that role. Sincere gratitude for another close friend and mentor, @JohnCohenAD, for allowing me to grow and move over to administration and be a member of his executive staff.
I hope I provided leadership and direction that made each of you happy you decided to give me the opportunities you did.
Thank you to the countless co-workers I’ve had the opportunity to work alongside. We’ve been through some battles together. We’ve walked some incredibly hard and difficult roads in these 7 years. We lost friends. We hurt. But we grew. And persevered. And won. Oh we won! And we had an absolute blast!
There are literally hundreds and hundreds of student-athletes I’ve been blessed to work with and to call friends - far too many to thank here. Always know this: you guys and girls are rockstars. You are shining examples of what college athletics is supposed to be. I am a far better person for knowing you.
I have been far from perfect, but I have always tried to keep our student athletes and their growth, development, and well-being as my guiding star while being the best representative of my alma mater I could.
Although my time on staff at @hailstate is over, I will continue roaming the field as the sideline reporter for @hailststefb and @learfield.
Stay tuned (or don’t 😂) for updates on my future plans.
God bless and #HailState! Remember, at MISSISSIPPI State, faMily means everything.
What a ride …
