I don't know how you locals perceive Axe but from afar he comes across a douche bag.

i'm on his insider text list and honestly thru interactions i've had with him - could not be a nicer guy

I don't know him. Never met him. But people that I know and think highly of, think he is a great guy and a great reporter. Against odds growing up, fought his way and has made something of himself.

from anear too .

I'm not too sure about that. I think Salter and Collins were 1a and 1b. The NIL package for Salter may have been the issue.

that was pretty easy to see imo

I'm on his insider text list and have the ability to shoot him questions/comments with it. He's a very good guy I will never get the hate he gets

He’s the same exact guy who used to read us the lunch menu and sports report for morning announcements in HS. He’s not a bad guy, this is how he’s always been. I do miss those days of slop being on the lunch menu.

People want reporters to ask tough questions until they ask tough questions of someone they like. And sometimes, it's just the way they look.

Brent went to school with a good friend of mine and I’ve had nothing but positive interactions with him for a very long time.

You miss slop on the lunch menu? You are a easy to please guy.

I don’t think we settled here because we frankly didnt have to offer him but we did. There are still good QBs out there AND QBs still entering the portal so there’s obviously something we like.

Yeah i dont get it either

Bit Shrader ish with a better arm. Not a bad thing but this is the type I thought we would get given Williams will also compete.

I think you're right. Pretty sure we targeted Collins from the jump.

Someone tell me how excited to be!

harken back to the hype you had for DeVito as he stepped into the UNC game

BUT MORE

A bit of a better arm? That’s a bit of an understatement

 

[orangepassion]

Clearly he was waiting to see if we landed Chris Long before committing

 

[Trueblue25]

This is a freakin sick land. A talent we’re not used to getting. EfffffF yeah fran

Ah, playing the Long game….

Up close, too.

I know him and you are dead on. He’s literally living his dream job. Like i said in a previous post he used to do morning announcements when we were in HS and was very good back then. He’d even throw in a sports report.

Don’t tell him it’s not Howie’s son.

 

[phil77]

I like him better than others and I like others better than him. From his high school tapes and scouting reports, he looks like he has all the talent in the world. After sitting for two years I don't think he is transferring to sit some more.

Turkey slop is the best school lunch in the entire history of school lunches... lunch ladies call it turkey love but that's a different story...

Nixon has to be salivating watching the strong arm hitting all those deep crossing routes on the tape. Wanted this guy bad, his high school and elite 11 tape is crazy good. The upside here is worth the risk, if they are comfortable with Williams being the floor and this guy the ceiling next season so am I. LGO!!
