Announcement: A heartfelt sendoff and a look ahead to the future
- Thread starter Ketchum
- Start date
He wouldn't be a NFL guy. He'd be a Texas football beat writer and columnist. It could be that his previous job was as a NFL beat guy/columnist.
Congratulations Chip....Thanks for all of your contributions here on OB....I will miss your articles...
Am still waiting for your Big Exposer of the Recruiting/player payoffs in the $EC...
Say hello to Erin for us....
Ketch....
If Coach Walker is still not available because he hasn't found his laptop yet, you might think of hiring Scipio Tex....Always entertaining.....
PS. Mack Brown may be available....

I have mixed emotions. I hate to see you go Chip, but I'll always support you in your endeavors. OB has benefited greatly from your presence. Ketch may find a fine news reporter to fill the void, but in truth you will never be replaced.
God bless and good luck in your new position.
Ketch - Thank you for hiring Chip and good luck in your search.

I had the pleasure of working with Chip as an OB intern back in 2010 when the program fell apart. All I can say is that, above all else, he is a first class human being.
I hate to see him go, and agree that he will be impossible to "replace," but Ketch has an always evolving and ambitious vision for the future of OBs and he will find a way to make sure the product doesn't suffer. Additionally, I am glad to see the situation handled with such professionalism from all sides.
Best of luck Chip.

Good Luck Chip. I enjoyed your contributions to OB tremendously. I can't
believe it has been 6 years already, Wow!

Honestly, even if Ketch didn't bring in anyone to replace me, OB would still be worth the sub because Ketch, Jason, Dustin, Taylor and Alex are that good. They grind, and that's why I have so much respect for them. Plus this message board has a life all its own. One of a kind!
John harris is terrible on radio but I could stomach him here. Lance Zierlien would make me light my torch and if it's Bomani Jones i'll burn down the village.
Other than that, I look forward to who you select.
Congrats on the new opportunity Chip, I know you'll do great.

Good luck Chip and best to you and your new venture. Hopefully you will keep Ketch in the know on the good stuff.
Lance Z kicks ass on the radio. He's funny, brusque, and damned knowledgable ! I love when he gives Manziel lovers grief and calls them Manzielots. The dude gets it, he probably didn't handle his time on OB very well, but he makes fun of every fan base. Him and Johnny Harris are by far the two best sports personalities in Houston! Bring him back, hell, every recruit in the Houston area listens to him and he's probably pro Horns 80% of the time. Hell, he's getting rich off his lawyer wife that has two degrees from UT.
Wishing you a fond farewell from Orangebloods. Since 2004 I have had a recruiting addiction that I thank you for. I have so enjoyed your posts, blogs, and radio input for a decade now that I hate to think of TEXAS recruiting without you at the fore front. You have had a lot of change the last few years and this is no different.. I along with everyone else wish you all of the best at Fox/Scout.com Go and grab ahold of your dreams Chip. We all are better fans & people because of your contributions !!! You will be greatly missed !!!
Chip, your an absolute class act and you will be missed. Excited for you and this opportunity that has presented itself - you will continue to be nails, of that I'm certain.
Best of luck in your new endeavors, and know that your work and insights were and are most appreciated.

Fairly new to OB, longer subscriber than poster. I have enjoyed the work that has been put in Chip. Thank you sir for your work. It shows you truly love what you do. Congratulations on your new endeavor. I know you will do well!
Will Chip keep an Orangebloods account or would that be a conflict of interest with him moving to Fox Sports/ scout.com?

Congrats Chip.
Here's to you, me, EA and Charissa being in the same room! (It might well be a football stadium ... that's a room right?)Originally posted by cagrafft:
But seriously going to miss you at OB Chip! You're one of the main reasons I joined the site and have remained a member here for so long, but I'm excited to see what you can do with your new opportunities! Say hi to EA and Charissa for me and put in a good word for me!Thanks for all your hard work for the site over the years and for helping me personally. You'll always be someone I look up to in the sports writing industry and someone I try to model myself after professionally.
Goodluck!
Well deserved Chip. We will miss your great input. Here's hoping you get the best out of things you do in the future because you have certainly made this a better place while you were here.
