If you've missed it on the N.C. State game thread or on Twitter, the pandemic and brilliant minds at the Journal and Lee Enterprises have made me expendable and I've been laid off.
Nine years in the industry so this was bound to happen eventually, and I always told myself not to worry about it because there was nothing I could do ... but fucking hell, I kinda figured once football season started I had a little security.
It's been a pleasure covering Wake Forest. When I took this beat three years ago I knew I was stepping into some big shoes and I hope to have at least partially filled them. I've made some mistakes, like defending Bz's basketball acumen, but really felt like I could be in this spot for a long time.
Alas.
I have no idea what's next. I'd love to stay in the area. All I've ever known is sports writing -- it's literally what I've known I wanted to do since 8th grade.
Hey, maybe it's finally time for The Athletic to have a Triad presence.
