“Bill is undoubtedly the best reporter on the beat. Subbed to the Athletic when he joined.
I have an inside baseball question for you both - after listening to the Knowles press conference, I do not understand the hype for Kourt Williams (KW) that is running rampantly through some parts of the OSU beat. It seems like reporters often ask extremely leading questions to confirm their preconceive notions about the team.
Super exaggerated example -
Reporter 1
Q: Jim, I love KW. Do you love KW? Why do you love KW? Even though he has never started, I think he could win the safety or LB job. Where will he be starting this fall?
A: KW is great. Smart, great vision, leader (insert coach speak here). He’ll be playing safety.
Reporter 2
Q: Hold on a sec, Ronnie Hickman is pretty good. Would they ever play together?
A: Yeah I love RH too. Smart, great vision, leader (insert coach speak here). I’d love to have them playing together if possible.
90% of the OSU beat the following day - Let me tell you why we are kicking RH to free safety, benching Josh Proctor, and clearing a path KW.
Why not instead ask -
Q: Jim, looks like there’s a lot of potential starters for the three safety positions. Where is everyone starting out? Anyone catching your eye this off-season or on the film from last year?
Does this question not provide enough information? Do you not get the quotes you need to write a story? I am genuinely trying to understand more about the press conference strategy here.”

“It’s a great podcast and they have repeatedly asked for this so I will do it.
Don’t know if I get more fired up about their football or food takes.”
