Looks like he's leaving Gene's Page and 247 for ON3 which is now Six Pack Speak.
Huge blow for Steve and the 247 guys. Paul will take a pretty big following with him. And then GP will turn into the old men sunshine club it was before the merger

Damn, Paul was the OG for Bulldawgs247 too
Wow
It?ll be refreshing to not have some guy hawking books all the time where I go to get my recruiting news.
Definitely a shock when I saw that this morning. A huge coup for the On3 site. Steve will really have to step up on the football recruiting front. Paul published recruiting news every day.
Yeah, since Steve took over the site, his recruiting info has gone way down. You never know when you're getting it from Steve either.Quote:

I imagine most will do the same. Someone over at 247 will have to really step up to keep those consumers.Quote:

I thought Steve was posting part time for the Auburn board, after Cohen left. ***
He went to their board during the Cohen to Auburn time frame posting all about Cohen to them.
Maybe we can get some On3 ranking boosts now.
Yeah the new writer made me think the same thing. A website like that can only support the salaries of so many grown men. Plus Paul has run a site before, it always seemed like a matter of time before he took the On3 site.Quote:

So, On3 will finally have State representative?
Paul and Robbie are head and shoulders above the rest.
Can confirm that this true.Quote:

This will hurt Genespage unfortunatelyQuote:

ON3 is a newer paid/free service from the same guy that started 247 before he sold it.Quote:

Genespage has went down for years. I left probably 12+ years ago and just couldn't stand the sunshine pumpers on everything. You couldn't even critique a game or team. It was ridiculous.Quote:

I just read the free info on all sites, but it is obvious that genespage lost most of their inside info when Cohen left. They have been reduced to running articles on 2025 or 2026 athletes.
Paul didnt even attend games half the time but wrote about them from other people's interviews. At least Rosey goes to baseball games and such on the road
I don't have time to worry about which board is better. Good to have more boards.
Robbie is OK. Their new writer frommer is great. He's not a fan like the rest so he actually reports the good and the bad, and does stories that nobody else does. Paul announced he left and he already broke news on basketball.Quote:
