In Memoriam

I started my website in March 2018 and it’s crazy I’ve had to create and update this page. I wish I didn’t need it, but I’ve lost family while in the TV business and they will live on here. Bo and JT, you’ll be missed.


I spent 3 season on the road with Bo Chapman and he became what we refer to as “road family”. But Bo was more than that. We weren’t always in touch, but I knew I could always call or text and I’d find a true brother on the other end. He passed away on February 18, 2019 at 35 years old. My time with him doing college football were some of the best memories I’ve made in the TV biz. There are so many moments we shared together that I’ll always remember. I fondly look back on our hotel room chats over a 6-pack and I will miss you deeply. You were family.

Justin Tolbert was a friend and colleague of mine at FOX Sports for 5 years. We were hired at the same time back in 2013 and found our way in the company together. He passed away May 26, 2018 at 29 years old. Way too early. He was a hard worker, a great friend and a caring person. I’ll always remember him. https://www.dailyrepublic.com/all-dr-news/obituaries/justin-tolbert/
