Georgia State alum Tiffany Blackmon’s post student-athlete career took a different route than most. The former women’s soccer defender that played for the Panthers from 2003-2006 now reports for the NFL Network.
Since joining the network in 2015, Blackmon has been assigned to field reports around the country, but she got her start in media by interning with the communications department for Athletics at Georgia State while she was a student.
How does it feel coming from Georgia State to where you are now on a national platform?
Blackmon: It’s great. I had a great experience during my time, I guess many years ago now, back at Georgia State and I was given a lot of opportunities to be put in a position to succeed with a lot of the professors that I had there.
