About Roy »

From Tennessee, I have lived in Louisiana so long I have become a split fan. Volunteers and Tigers capture my thoughts in September, and when the two actually meet I cannot bear to watch. My loyalty usually leans toward the one with the best shot at a championship, so the 2007 game in Atlanta was incredibly stressful.
Between weekends I design circuits and program industrial controllers, but in the real world of the weekend I live to see Florida, Georgia and Auburn feed on each other, opening the way for another unbearable championship between LSU and Tennessee. And of course, Sunday is all about the Saints.

Hey Roy—Dave Mo here, a Bleacher Report Community Coordinator.

I've been spending time on our College Football page and read a couple of your old articles. Really on-point analysis...you do good work.

Given that you haven't written in a while, I thought I'd check in and see if you're interested in picking up your coverage again. What do you say?

If not, it would be great if you could give me some feedback on why you decided to stop writing and what we could have done to better serve you. If you wouldn't mind, please shoot me a line at dmorrison@bleacherreport.com with any thoughts.

Thanks so much,

Dave Mo

Hi Roy,

As a desperate Raiders fan, (and not knowing much about the SEC, except for the LSU/ND game a few years ago...shame on me.) I need to know...is Jamarcus Russell the real deal????

I'm not talking athletically...I'm talking football smarts, and composure to be amongst the best.

Thanks,
Tony
