Yeah, Stephen has admitted to not following college hoops much at all, but the rest of us have followed and paid attention quite a bit. Zay and Phil have been covering the draft for us, and they’ve done a good job thus far.
Stephen is a die hard Magic fan though and an excellent host. Does a good job at booking guests and asking questions the fans care about.
Luke comes from a coaching background and his insight into the game is probably 2nd to none, at least on Magic Twitter. Zay is a self professed college hoops junkie, he’s the newest addition to the team so I don’t know him well, but he provides good insight on draft prospects. Wyatt and Stephen are eternal optimists and both of them do an excellent job finding and articulating positive Magic related stuff. Phil is another relatively new addition, and from what I’ve seen so far he’s an excellent writer. I don’t know too much about his background, but he has proven to be knowledgeable and eloquent.
Really, the biggest goal we have as new website/blog is be a bit more authentic than other Magic fansites. We want to be less cookie cutter and more (for a lack of a better word) punk rock about it. We want to be fun, we want to be engaging, and we want to contribute content that we, as a collective, wanted to get from the other outlets.
