Good morning. I have a new sports media company. Welcome to Sport & State. My welcome column telling you what the site will be and where I see media going. This will be fun. Check us out: https://t.co/hzOcYs3laE
Arch Manning has gotten the memo that many athletes and coaches get: say absolutely nothing interesting & be a robot. Don’t joke, don’t be entertaining at all. You don’t hate the sports media enough. Most of the time the sports media makes sports less fun.
Arch got 19 questions and gave less than a minute in total answers after being ripped for laughing at a meme. Watch this. This is what bogus media criticism creates, what incentive do athletes have to be honest? Zero.
Byron Donalds took his campaign somewhere you probably don’t see many candidates: an FSU fraternity tailgate.
@ByGusWilson spoke with @ByronDonalds , fraternity members and organizers about the strategy behind the visit — and why college tailgates could become a new way to reach young voters.

The heroic and brave juror who refused to find Lindsay Clancy not guilty is now being investigated. He should be honored and protected for his bravery not attacked. I discussed with @willcain.
Holly Rowe. Texas. Rd. 2.
After issues surrounding OSU-Texas, the ESPN sideline reporter is back working a UT game on Sat.
If and when approached for interviews by Rowe, the expectation is that Steve Sarkisian/Arch Manning will participate, per Texas.

Paramount now is set to own CNN after the 12 Democrat AGs crumbled, which means a far left wing CNN will die. This is why Democrats are panicking. All they have now on the far left is MSNBC, which no one watches, and the New York Times. Major media shift.
An Australian newspaper called me a “professional dickhead” for ripping constant apologies in their country. My response: We have to stop apologizing for western civilization and start defending it everywhere. Or we will all live in squalor.
The Minnesota newsperson who said I was sexist for offering $10 million for a WNBA team to play a high school boy’s team and who last week demanded every reporter who laughed at the Holly Rowe meme be forced to apologize has lost her TV show. https://t.co/C05PVGWtfn
I was at NC State-Vandy on Saturday. Right after the game I saw the NC State coaches trying to get downstairs from the coaches box. The NC State coaches looked like they’d seen a ghost. Total shellshock, biggest choke I’ve ever seen in person. Bonkers.
Ole Miss fans didn’t storm the field after beating LSU. Why? Because they expect to win big games like this now. Great programs should never storm the field, they should always expect to win.
Yes, you’ve caught me. Israel and the Southeastern Conference have a secret relationship to covertly pay people online to say nice things about them. And until your Tweet I was getting away with it too!
Lane Kiffin got a ton of attention before LSU-Ole Miss. But here’s the truth: whichever team had Trinidad Chambliss wins this game. If LSU has him, they win by 10+. He was that good. He may well be the best QB in college football this year.
