Smart move. Journalism is being ripped apart and the money has always been scarce. Sad times but crying won’t change them.

He had a good run, good luck to him

I heard he is taking a position with the harris administration

Wrong forum.

He blocked me years ago so I haven't seen or read anything of his in a while. He is the biggest whiny ass crybaby on the planet but when he stuck to just writing and covering basketball he was excellent. He has some serious anger issues, hope he gets those addressed in whatever he does next.

No one believes the press. They have themselves to thank for all the fake new. Once politics ruled the forth estate, they were doomed.

And immediately politics. SMH.

Tucker has always been very good at covering UK Sports, albeit a little grumpy from time to time. He wasn't afraid to go after Cal in the last couple of years either (when it was needed). Gonna miss him a bit.

But maybe this is a good thing, Pope basically gets a fresh start with new media members as well (minus KSR and a few others).

Many many reasons involved. In this instance I’d say he got offered better money with less travel. That lifestyle seems like it would be fun but I’d bet it gets real old real quick.

Money isn't great in journalism unless you hit it big.

Yeah, I've seen some ads for freelance photographers for like $30 bucks PER assignment. Like, dang, that's awful.

For me it would be $30 per hour, minimum of 4 hrs + gas and board.

Kyle and his family are dealing with some tough issues I won’t go into. I think it best to send good thoughts his way.
