The only objective GT reporters that I know about are KQ, Rod at 247, and Chad at the AJC. I think the Athletic had someone, but I understood they don't any more. Maybe I am wrong. Does anyone know of any others?
He does want subscribers. Much like the Athletic, or AJC trying to get subscribers with headlines.Quinlan isn't objective. His slant is to drive people to his paid site. "I imagine" he really only cares about his bottom line.
He is a dwag, what in the heck do you expect.....I didn't think much of KQ's double bird on the video. That said, it is probably not the most professional look to interact with fans in that way in general. Tone/intent is difficult to interpret off the internet and I understand the way KQ took it. As someone who has a young family, that balance can be tough to manage. Both the fan who made the comment and KQ apologized to each other later in the video and that should have been the end of it. I think WT took the opportunity to stir the pot to increase his viewership like what RonJohn said.
Nerves seem to just be wearing thin in general in the sports media/podcast space. I thought that Bryce Koon has pushed back at fans too with some comments he/they have made. Josh Pate has seemed a little defensive at times recently too. Covering Tech sports has to be pretty merciless for several reasons. Not the least of which is having to interact with a bunch of intelligent, awkward, engineers. It even gets to my wife at times.
Pre ireland predict and interact w fabs, epecially FSUJackson Caudell (SI, Bleav) is generally objective. As I said I think Bryce Koon (Crowded Booth podcast) does a good job - he reports for 247 LSU for his day job. I’ve noticed Caudell is generally more optimistic and Koon more pessimistic.
Eventhough he is a uGA grad, I think he does a fairly decent job of not involving that in any of his content/opinions. He seems pretty even-keeled with his takes to me. Lets be honest, if we had a tech fan covering the team, we may have a time like the FSU message boards where there demands for refunds because fans have felt mislead about the team.He is a dwag, what in the heck do you expect.....

He went to the cesspool. I think he has said on one of his podcasts that he is a TX fan instead of a mutt fan.Kelly Quinlan is a dawg!? I never knew that, but it does explain why I can’t stand him.
I, um, just uh, kinda feel like, um, I sorta wish, uh, maybe, um, he could, uh, kinda sorta maybe ever, um, ask a direct question.
