A big one on Paulson Adebo and Duane Akina - davidmlombardi - 09-27-2018

A deep dive into Paulson Adebo, Duane Akina (who always has some fantastic experience and stories, given his 39 years coaching), Stanford's adjustments to beat Oregon, and this showdown against Notre Dame:

Thanks for checking it out! The support on these articles from Stanford followers through these big features that I've started writing has been great.

Good article. The Athletic content continues to impress me. Definitely worth the money.

For sure. It's a bit funny though, the first few days after I subscribed were kinda slow for all my teams, and I was left wondering if that was really all there was. Definitely not the case, just weird timing, it's been awesome so far.

I did the free trial. I wish I could sign up for college football season only, and a lot of the authors listed as potential people to follow hadn't published anything in a while. I really like Doug Haller who covers ASU, David of course, and ChantelJennings had a good article on the difference of AT Hall returning in the 2nd half of last weekend's game.

The Athletic has the best PAC12 and Stanford coverage I've seen.  The articles have some depth and knowledge that I just don't find in other sources (with the exception of the The Cardboard, of course!).

Wow thanks so much for the nice words everyone! Remember, the more sign-ups we get through the original link that I posted at the top of this thread, the more deep-dive, long-form Stanford stuff we'll have.

So as someone has already mentioned, there is a free trial option if you're still on the fence. A guy like Duane Akina has so many stories that he alone may be worth a few articles this year! Thanks again!
