Hey everyone. So unfortunately, like @SamHerderFCS, I also have some bad news to share.
After covering the G6 for four years at HERO Sports, my position was cut by the company that owns HERO. I loved my job. Getting to highlight schools so often overlooked was really special for me.
And I don't want to stop now, especially with the football season days away. So, like Sam, I'm also going to try independent content. I've started a Substack called The Pool Report, where I'll be covering Group of Six football and I plan to have everything there you could want: rankings, columns, podcasts, game previews, profiles and a lot more. If you're a fan of football in the Pac-12, American, Sun Belt, Mountain West, MAC and/or Conference USA, I'll work my ass off to give you content that's worthwhile.
Thank you in advance for the support! Here's the link to my Substack: cpoolreporter.substack.com/

Week 4 of the G6 Top 25! Boise State takes the top spot, and I bumped the Broncos back up to No. 1 on my ballot.
Maybe a little premature, given WMU didn't offer much of a passing threat... but 32-7 is hard to ignore.
My Top 5:
1. BSU
2. JMU
3. New Mexico
4. S. Florida
5. NDSU
This week’s G6 Top 25 media poll is out! Boise State is at No. 1, but it's not unanimous despite the win over Western Michigan 👀

Another edition of the G6 Top 25 media poll, and there are 4 MAC teams included.
Western Michigan (8) and UMass (10) in the top ten, while Toledo (13) and Miami OH (24) move up after nice wins.

Tulane survived and hung on to beat Southern Miss, Will Hall’s former team, 24-21.
Maurice Turner ran for 200 yards and 2 TDs.
Hasn’t always looked pretty, but the Green Wave are 2-2, and their losses have been to P4 teams each by 14 points or less.

JMU stays undefeated at 4-0 with a convincing 46-20 win over Old Dominion.
The Dukes rolling right now and, to me, are in a class of their own in the Sun Belt.
Camden Coleman was 24/42 for 243 yards, 4 TDs and 1 INT. George Pettaway ran for 110 yards.
