This one hurts.
So many of us associate Bobβs voice with awesome memories at the ballpark with our family and friends, even though most of us probably didnβt know his name until just recently. He contributed to those great experiences, and he will be missed.
Rest easy.
Cutting your marketing, communications, and creative teamsβ¦
While maintaining a dual-AD structure and taking on cross-country travel in the ACCβ¦
And now outsourcing it for βrevenue and authentic storytelling" model...
This is gross and soulless.
Iβve heard from a number of friends and colleagues in the comms space and it sounds like the NCAA and Genius really left them in the lurch. These are hard jobs to begin with and theyβve been made exponentially harder. Happy to amplify awareness of this issue any way I can.
