I did a 2 minute web search for info on this guy. Found more about Bishop Chad than Chad Bishop.

Anyone know where he learned his journalism?

If he grew up in Georgia (or at least in the AUC distribution area) then, based in that tweet, he didn’t grow up a Tech fan. Sigh.

30 second search…

Thanks. My preferred search engine stinks if you found that in 30 seconds.

At least he's not coming from the Grady school

I just he can ask a succinct and coherent question. The previous guy struggled with this concept.

I will always thank Ken for his questions after the UCF game. His questions were the last straw for TFG. (as if he wasn’t already exposed enough as a fraud)

he did a nice job overall covering us. Never biased towards us but still able to understand the Tech community.

Pulled it from LinkedIn. Don’t know how long it would have taken otherwise. First hit was the Vandy AA homepage and I was looking for his CV. Wasn’t apparent, so I jumped to LinkedIn.

Not a lot out there on Chad per se.

Yea, we have a beginner as our beat writer

Back when Carson was here in 68--69 ish , we were often covered by Atlanta journal sports columnist Furman Bisher.

Dogging Carson , he once said "Ramblin Wrek is GaTech, and a Helluva Shape its in" .
Cant say we are much better

I graduated high school with him!

Also he has been working in sports journalism for 20 years so I would not call him a beginner.

He was the Sports Editor for the Statesboro paper 19 years ago, so he has been around.

Looking at his work history, he has been around for a long time. He’s been an editor, a beat writer, a recruiting reporter, a radio sports guy, and a AA Communications person at a P5 school. He seems to have decent credentials. Did he date your daughter or something?
