First Post: Wednesday

Hey everyone. It's another warm, sunny day in the Gump. That makes it a lot like yesterday, the day before that, the week before that. My lawn is browning. That isn't an issue at Auburn, where the main practice field is made of plastic and recycled rubber.

I'll be spending part of my morning at Catholic High talking with students about journalism. I'll walk a fine line between warning them to avoid this business at all costs and imploring them to give news a try.

I don't know what advice I'd give a youngster pondering a career in journalism. I guess I'd ask: How badly do you want it? We could make a song about that.

As an Auburn aside, what is the deal with Montez Billings? He hasn't helped us understand what's going on with him. The Head Coach says the issue is out of his hands. Billings is an Auburn graduate. I don't get it.

(I have addressed this in today's notebook.)

Here's the Auburn situation at this moment:

Jay G.,

Did I miss the MA's high school preview section? I snagged Friday-Sunday papers last week but came up empty.

Jay G, if you need help writing a song about getting into the journalism business, just give me a call. After all, I wrote the Captain Boxhead theme song.
