aubiefifty 16,717 Posted May 4, 2022 Share Posted May 4, 2022 Auburn basketball fans happy Jesse Newell is no longer an AP voter Andrew Hughes 3-4 minutes Auburn basketball fans celebrated Jesse Newell moving on from his job as an AP voter. (Photo by Kevin C. Cox/Getty Images) Auburn basketball fans couldn’t be happier about the promotion of a college basketball writer from the Kansas City Star to the role of covering the Chiefs. “Why would Tiger fans give a flying hoot about someone on a beat over 800 miles away from the Plains?”, you might ask. Well, Jesse Newell isn’t just any random college basketball writer. He is, in essence, public enemy No. 1 to Auburn basketball and ‘The Jungle’. During the 2021-22 season, he deliberately followed the KenPom rankings and admitted he doesn’t watch the games. The announcement gave the Auburn family every reason to take the biggest sigh of relief: Fly War Eagle wishes you luck on your new venture Mr. Newell. Don’t let the door hit you on the way out of the NCAAB beat. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

tgrogan21 6,198 Posted May 5, 2022 Share Posted May 5, 2022 After I figured out that he does the same exact thing every week, I didn't care as much. I don't think he deserved a vote, though, since he basically copied and pasted Kenpom. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
