9. any collegian writer, past or present.

10. mark jannsen - don't know if i spelled his name correctly, and frankly don't care. he was respected by almost nobody, he was rude and dismissive and needy, had a crusty personality and writing style, and often lifted quotes from others without attribution. his LHC LHC Bill Snyder book was one of the most poorly formatted books i've ever read.

Super late to the party, but I couldn't agree with this more. Janssen's longevity was the only thing he had going for him. Otherwise, he was a major tool. On more than one occasion, I was doing an one-on-one interview (admittedly as a new and fairly dumb college reporter), and he interrupted me to make small talk and openly laugh at my questions. Completely derailed two separate interviews, which I really didn't appreciate. Can also confirm that he lifted quotes from road games he didn't even attend, etc. His writing wasn't near good enough to make up for the crap human being he was.

he also used to stand creepily behind frank martin when asking questions, sort of like trump did to hillary at the one debate.

Ha, I don't remember that but I don't doubt it. Btw, Rake, you were still around when I was just getting started at the Collegian. I was never nearly as talented as you, Meek, etc., but you really helped turn me into at least a competent reporter. Hope you're doing well, man.
