What a journey it’s been.
When Jared Oliver recommended me to apply to be the successor of Akiem Bailum and the next sports editor for The Signal, I had mixed emotions. First, I remember how highly Jared spoke of Akiem, so I was honored he believed I could handle the job. On the other hand, I was a bit frightened to carry such a title, because I had to follow in the footprints of Akiem.
There was no time to waste before I was thrown into the fire. My first issue was the 2015 football preview, which was 12 pages – written by only two writers – about a team that had won one game in two years.
