Agreed, but a recruiting site reporter should never say he's not interested in covering recruiting...honestly anyone taking over from Osen was going to be a disappointment. That guy rocked.

Did Alec actually say that somewhere? I stopped following 247 after Osen left.Agreed, but a recruiting site reporter should never say he's not interested in covering recruiting...
Yes, on the board. I don't remember the direct quote, but he essentially said he's not as interested in covering recruiting as he is storytelling. Well 247 is not a storytelling service, unfortunately.Did Alec actually say that somewhere? I stopped following 247 after Osen left.
247/Cyclone Alert was frustrating because it's become a stepping stone for writers to reach their ideal school. Swain used it to get to Kansas, Osen to Wisconsin, and I'm sure Alec has similar aspirations to get to Illinois. That's the main reason I didn't give Alec a chance and swore off the subscription.
That said, Swain and Osen both worked their tails off and offered phenomenal value to their subscribers. They earned their dream jobs and did ISU fans right while covering the Cyclones. I'll always thank them for the product they rolled out while in Ames.
He did. His recruiting information is basically just reported offers on twitter.Did Alec actually say that somewhere? I stopped following 247 after Osen left.

Osen is better informed about ISU than Alec at this point. Alec’s appearances on KXNO are cringeworthy.
Saw that, I will say their last pod, Brend gave a rant on CC22 where he was probably the most well spoken he’s been on the podLooks like the guys got Tre King on their latest pod? Will give it a listen.
