TomVH on ESPN Recruiting Nation

Submitted by MgoblueAF on

I just caught an episode of Recruiting Nation on ESPNU, and it looks like TomVH is getting some good publicity/opportunities.  They had some field reporters at a few universities talking about the impact of retro/creative uniforms, and TomVH reported from in front of the Big House. 

He said that the ND retro jerseys are a hit, specifically mentioning Darius Powe's reaction as, "Oh, the uniforms definitely give them the same advantage as an Oregon-type of school"  (This was paraphrased, not an exact quote). 

It appeared to be a piece pushed onto TomVH by ESPN because I don't think he would have otherwise ever mentioned jerseys.  Nonetheless, it's good seeing him get some TV time, and he definitely had the best AV equipment of all the reporters.

However, these posts are getting a little redundant.

I can see tomorrow's already

OP: "TomVH scratched his ass on ESPN!"

Concerned MGoBlogger: "Hey, this is behind a paywall, can someone summarize?"

Helpful MGoBlogger: "TomVH just scratched his ass on video - boy he sure is short!"

will not be degraded by a single satirical comment I posted.  Tom was not the target of the satirical post.  That is the nature of satire - some can see the humor, some are just offended.  Sometimes people need to be able to take a look at themselves and find humor in what they do.  There was a lot of self deprication in that post.  Following TomVH was what got me hooked on MGoBlog, and I see quite a bit of myself in the dialogue I posted.

On the other hand, if you are just an overly sensitive indiviual, then I fear I will offend you again in the future - just maybe at a different grade level.
