About

Hey, I'm Josh.

I started writing for Bleacher Report in December of 2010 as a junior in high school. After posting a few articles I was placed into the Featured Columnist Program and I am now a full-time FC. I mainly write about college basketball, but I also write about the Phillies and the MLB, tennis, football, the Little League World Series, and whatever sporting events are of interest.

I am a former intern for Bleacher Report, with my internship being in the Summer of 2011.

I previously considered business as my main option for a major in college, but I am now looking to major in sports journalism/TV broadcasting in order to have a career following my passion of sports.

Be sure to check out my monthly rankings of college basketball recruiting: one about updated recruiting class rankings, and one about updated undecided recruits. The second of which only runs from April through December.

    Hi Josh, Thanks for responding. I will agree that Katin in his Junior year thought that you can get extra points for "degree of difficulty". But his senior season was completely different. Watch some of his games and you will come to a different conclusion. He has a great basketball IQ and hopefully you'll see this and change your opinion of him.

    You undoubtedly have never seen Katin play. Your description of his game is so far off it's humorous. Don't write about things you have no knowledge of.........

    C'mon Josh... According to your article Kentucky Derby 2012: Ranking Every Horse in the Field article on the Trinniberg page you say "and the Kentucky Derby is 12 furlongs" In fact you mention Trinniberg can't get the mile and a half. Do you detect a flaw in your handicapping?

    Josh,

    Thanks for your comments, I really appreciate them and will strive to keep working on making the articles better and coming on those sports I mostly write about. Thanks again and keep your articles coming.

    I was a little thrown off about the Tyler Lewis article until I saw that you're like 18 years old. Clearly you do not know much about scouting (other than a few YouTube videos) in making your judgements. You're assessments seem as if they come from a fan of certain schools (cough, Duke, cough) rather than an unbiased sports writer. You have a long way to go kid.

    Hey Josh just curious did Alex Murphy start the first exhibition game of the season for Duke? Was he in the rotation of the top 7-8 players on the team until a concussion during a critical period of the season where players fight for playing time forced him to the sidelines for 10 days? Is it not true with the schedule ahead the team does not have time for any players to start over and prove their worth? I am sure he is extremely disappointed, however, for you to say that he is one of the five disappointments of the season for Duke thus far is outrageous. My thinking is that you suffered a concussion before writing the piece regarding the 5 most disappointing Duke players this season. Either that or your retainers were giving you a headache and you weren't thinking straight. Alex Murphy absolutely made the right decision enrolling at Duke when he did. Had he not suffered a concussion, you would be writing a completely different article about the contributions he was making to the team. Concussions are hot topic in sports right now Josh. Calling someone a disappointment because he had a concussion is not a good career move. Just sayin.

    Be careful! Your online article about Suh borders on being slanderous.

    Joe you and I are on the same page my friend....Suh did not run in to the skirmish to make things worse, he was in there to calm things down. I watched the entire game as well. Apparently this guy wasn't watching...or got his information on the game from his 8 year old sister

    Fix your story. Clemson DID NOT lose. Apparently you wrote this drivel at halftime.Clemson overcame two 18 point deficits to win by 11.
