The latest
- Women’s sports generated more than $1 billion in commercial revenue in 2024
- NBC Sports president Jon Miller confirms interest in ESPN’s MLB package
- Andrés and Nico Cantor talk ‘bucket list’ chance to call CONCACAF Nations League clash together
- AA Podcast: Ian Rapoport on Aaron Rodgers’ free agency status, Jordan Schultz altercation, and more
But now he’ll be behind the paywall writing various articles for The Athletic for Seth Davis’ college basketball portal, The Field House. And that means that the site has amassed a staff of experienced writers including former ESPN.com reporter Dana O’Neil, former SI’er Brian Hamilton, as well as former Sporting News and Vice writer Sam Vecenie.
So this brings some statistical analysis as well as regular game stories and reporting on college basketball. And while it may cost a monthly fee to read everything, the stories and writing may be worth the price.
Getting KenPom for The Field House is a big get and to get some exclusive analysis and analytics that aren’t available anywhere else is an attraction for the site. So Pomeroy joins The Athletic and will bring his famed analysis to subscribers.
