Re-upping this post hoping that some of my many sports media friends would be willing to do this short survey for a research paper I’m working on. Please share if you’re so inclined. Thanks in advance!

Please feel free to share this among your sports media friends as well. We’d love to have a large pool for this!

Worlds colliding for me last week as one of our sports reporting students at the GameOn UK Workshop caught up with former UK and Marion County star Makayla Epps to discuss her new roles. Great work by Sterling Hohman and photographer Brooke Johnson. nam04.safelinks.protection.outlook.com/?url=https%3A%…

Check out all of our students’ work this week at bigbluestudentmedia.com And on Instagram, follow GameOnUKworkshop

We’re running our GameOn UK workshop again at the girls’ Sweet 16 this week. Students from four classes cover every game of the tournament. This is one my favorite images so far.

Is this the last remaining remnant of snow/ice left in Lexington?

What is with this poor man’s rail cam, ESPN? It’s awful and distracting from the game.

Our School of Journalism and Media is so excited to have one of our alums @GrahamShelby introduce our students to the magic of Muhammad Ali on Wednesday from 5-7 p.m. at UK’s Worsham Cinema. The “City of Ali” screening is free and open to the public. kentucky.com/opinion/op-ed/…

@WillGravesAP @danielfleser It was my first thought.

99.9% of ppl watching the Bears game: “How? What?” Sportswriters: “those poor souls on deadline.”

I should mention that Michael is hiding in the third row. 💙

I can’t tell you how lucky we are to have so many talented alums come and visit our students every semester. This past week has been HUGE with SportsCenter Anchor @michaeleaves joining us today and ESPN Director of Social Media @AnnieDunbar14 visiting last Friday.

@SportsBizMiss What’s the best way to contact you for these? I’m planning to use it as part of an issues in 21st century journalism course at Kentucky … and potentially expand it to a separate course. So I’d love to learn more.

Professors, if you're looking to use The Athlete's NIL Playbook in a course and you haven't already gotten on my list, let me know. Today, I sent out suggested syllabi (undergrad and grad) with discussion questions and assignments, PowerPoint slides for each chapter and other resources.

@RoushKSR @AdamLuckettKSR I miss those days. (Not a lot of women in that photo.)

@AdamLuckettKSR Where’s Waldo but with Rick Bozich.

Only 40 days until college football season.

@coreyp08 Thank you, Corey!

Happy Birthday @ByJenSmith!

A great ⁦@USBWA⁩ awards luncheon in the books. Congrats to all honorees, but especially these two Hall of Famers I’ve known for 35 years. ⁦@johnclayiv⁩ ⁦@ChuckCulpepper1⁩

We've found an excellent friend and partner in the KHSAA. So proud to be a part of this special event and give our students such a hands-on experience. Follow along here to see our students' work all week. kykernel.photoshelter.com/.../C0000MO9E3…

Today we started what we hope will be the first of many GameOnUK workshops training our students to cover sports and communities. As part of our service mission, we're distributing the images to papers around the state as well as the participating schools.

Just a few months ago, David Stephenson and I had a wild idea to bring students from UK's News and Sports Photography class and the Sports Reporting class and have them cover the Boys' Sweet 16.

Quite the rainbow over Lexington right now. 🌈
