He’s heading up the KSU on3 site and Mason Voth is coming back to run the Rivals site.
Interesting! Have not seen anything about Mason taking over rivals. That's a great acquisition.

I don’t think it’s official but he quit his job at KSGO in Wichita today and I’m speculating.

It's official now. The rivals sure is more called EMAWonline and Mason is the managing editor. The Nebraska guy is no longer the publisher, it's now a lady from LSU. The two writers that work for Mason are two dudes I've never heard of, one from the Illinois rivals site and the other from the Arizona State rivals site.

Yahoo still have the nerve to charge $10 a month or $100 a year for this brand new site, with all of the writers new to the beat. They're rough ridin' ridiculous.

Mason is a great dude and great writer. I hope he has nothing but success with this group.

Pricing is absurd as it always has been.

This Julie lady from the LSU site seems like a polished journo, must have been pretty slim pickings to get a recognizable kstate dude that would take the bait and be the token face of the site.  I just don’t see it with Mason, maybe in like 10 years, but he is not ready to run that site IMO.

I don't think he's much younger than Derek Young was when he took over KSO. The salary of that job doesn't lend to getting a seasoned journo. Mason went to j school and he already has contacts with the department, in the SIDs office, and he has friends on the beat. He'll be fine.

The biggest piece of this that shocks me is how shitty the pay must be a KGSO. I knew Steckline Communications didn't pay jack crap, but damn.

Went to cancel my rivals sub and they offered me 5 months free. lmao.

At least they don't make you call a 1-800-number anymore.
If there was a gif of nicname thwarting the attempted-flag-taker and then gesturing him to suck it, followed by motioning for all of Hilton Shelter to boo him louder, it'd be better than that auburn gif.

This was exactly my first thought. I knew he wasn't rich but he had the main sports morning show in a decent sized city.

It’s not really his age more of how casual he is.  Reminds of Grand Flanders, good reporter but doesn’t feel like he’s got the ambition or drive to run the whole thing. Maybe I’m wrong we will find out soon enough.

Fitz hosted a GPC Twitter Space tonight on KSU recruiting which essentially was a sales pitch for their 75% sub sale. Had 100+ listeners including Tang and Braet so it funny listening Wallace and Gilbert talk about them while they're in the room.
