According to Kelly Hines, she will no longer be the beat writer for TU... nothing about a replacement, so I guess TU just won’t have a beat writer. She said she’d cover general college football stuff that may include TU from time to time.

I’m ecstatic to announce that Wednesday I’ll start a new job @tulsaworld, the newspaper I grew up reading. I’ll be a utility man for @TWSportsExtra, covering a little bit of everything, from TU football, to #okpreps.

If I were the TW, I would have made the same move. It’s a challenge for us to become relevant again.Yep - that’s the other guy who’ll be covering a little bit of TU.
Either the Tulsa world is REALLY hurting or this is just a big slap in the face.
Can you imagine this happening at Memphis, Cincinnati, Houston, UCF, USF, etc? Nope. But we’re “just Tulsa” so it’s acceptable.

Staff cuts. Peters gone. Where is Bailey?
or in the words of the wise Douglas Wojcik: it is what it is.
Is that extra perhaps a one Lawrence Lewis?
Yeah, I called out Peters on that and Hines and Gregory came to his defense.Looks like the Tulsa world refused to send a rep to AAC media days. And the two fine folks assigned to “cover” TU from the Tulsa world are being crabby patties about it on twitter.
Fixed it for meSo coming to the defense of your boss on the tweets is now part of a sportswriter's job description? Oh brother. Glad I got out in '94.
Or they simply don't give a rats arse; which I believe is the most likely position of those in Collins Hall.If TU says they aren’t going to invest, why should their partners?
It’s things like this that stack up over time that I was referring to when I said if Collins Hall thinks it can take the money but not match it, or worse not spend what they get and just pay debts, then they are woefully naive about how conferences work.
