Shannon Russell

@ByJayMorrison So, so sorry to hear this, Jay. My deepest condolence to you and your family.

Some unfortunate news to share:

@XUmktgguy @EiserXUSports Legend! @EiserXUSports' game notes are elite.

Dug up a copy of @EiserXUSports Game Notes from 25 years ago today.

@pfronckowiak @ReboundRundown That was something else! Hope you are doing well!

@ReboundRundown @slrussell SHANNON! I needed the Macura/Cronin Crosstown Shootout story where Mick went after JP at the end of the game

New @ReboundRundown today with former Xavier and Louisville beat writer @slrussell! Watch: youtu.be/oHZTsYOb-_k?si… All platforms: linktr.ee/reboundrundown

@xukeith @PaulFritschner Hi! I’m a copywriter at a company in Cincinnati. Still a stone’s throw from XU.

@PaulFritschner @slrussell Is she at NKU still?

Shannon spent 12 seasons covering Xavier before one year at Louisville. Thanks to @slrussell for taking the time to catch up! We covered everything in here. Give it a listen ⬇️

What an amazing trip down memory lane with @PaulFritschner. I loved covering Xavier hoops and getting to know so many special people. Thanks for the opportunity to revisit the beat, Paul, if only for an evening!

@AstiMama @EiserXUSports @PaulFritschner Same!!!

@slrussell @EiserXUSports @PaulFritschner We miss you, Shannon!

Had a chance to catch up today with Xavier hoops royalty @EiserXUSports for a few minutes and @PaulFritschner for quite some time. So great to be back at Cintas, it just for a short time. Many memories in that building!

@cgalvinesq @EiserXUSports @PaulFritschner You are too kind! Thank you.

@slrussell @EiserXUSports @PaulFritschner One of the best to ever cover the beat!

*if just for a short time. I'm out of practice Tweeting!

@herdnurse Hi! 😀

@slrussell Shannon!!💙💙💙

The former Xavier reporter in me wants to know everything about this coaching search. What. Is. Happening.

@shabbychi Well, hi! Hope you are well!

You guys.

@MOR_XU I mean, what.

@slrussell RICHARD PITINO!!

@TheRealBJK First, thank you! Second, I wish more jobs like the ones I had at The Enquirer and The Athletic existed. I loved covering XU hoops.

@slrussell Shannon! I always appreciated the way you covered this team and were all in from a media accessibility standpoint. I wish there were more beat writers like you. Could def use one (you) now that there is scoopage that needs scooping.

@adamliddell11 Miss you all too!!! 🏀

@slrussell Shannon! The 🐐 !!! We miss you!

@BrendanBurnsie Aw, thanks! I miss covering XU. Richard P. headed to Nova, no?

@slrussell I miss you Shannon. Wish Chris Mack was coming back stunned he isn’t. Gotta be Pitino now I’d imagine

@1XavierMan Saw that! It's becoming like a soap opera.

@slrussell Hi Shannon its sound like coach Mack is staying where he is

@princesskathieb It's been wild to watch.

@slrussell It's a fucking hot mess. Sean totally screwed the program!!!

@XUStatman I love Griff II! What a handsome fellow.

On of my favorite things about working the MVC Tournament #ArchMadness is meeting back up with Griff II, the Drake mascot emeritus. This year, he is all business and trying to out dress me.
