John Pennington

The man with the plan, John dreamed up MrSEC.com and somehow convinced the rest of this awesome crew to take part. He’ll be the guy bringing you every story from across the SEC every day, which, admittedly, sounded easier back in the planning stages. John’s a 7-time Emmy Award winner and produces and hosts The Sports Source, a TV show that can be watched on the Tennessee page of this here website. (There was no real reason to mention the Emmys other than the fact that John’s ego is the size of Utah. Not true, it’s really more the size of Rhode Island.) Contact him at john@mrsec.com.

Jimmy Hyams

The Ace SEC Reporter and backbone of our operation, Jimmy has been covering the SEC as a beatwriter and a radio talk show host for more than a quarter-century. His connections across the Southeast are unmatched. Most importantly, he happens to bear a strong resemblance to a circa-1960s Glen Campbell, which gives the rest of us endless amusement. At any rate, he is a writer for this website… and he drives the main road, lookin’ in the sun for another overload. Ha, never gets old.

Josh Ward

Our recruiting guru, Josh’s mug can be found in the dictionary beside the term, “sucker.” Who else would agree to try to keep tabs on 12 schools’ recruiting efforts? That’s like agreeing to wrestle otters in a fish-filled speedo. The man is our Atlas (the globe-lifting dude, not a road map). He’s also been working in sports talk radio since he was a zygote. Seriously.

Rich McVey

Known for his boyish, Ron Howard looks, Rich will be providing his own (not-always-safe-for-young-eyes) take on any SEC-related stories that strike his fancy. He gets plenty of leeway from us because no one here really wants to rattle his cage. (It’s rumored he once “Multiple Migged” a man in Brushy Mount State Prison during one of his extended stays there.) If you dare, you can see more his work by visiting freefantasyfootballpicks.com.

Mike Mitchell

The business end of our operation, Mike’s the man to contact (admin@mrsec.com) if you have any advertising or business questions for us. Or if you want to buy the site for a couple million or so. You see, we also own the domains for MrBig10, MrPac10, MrNotreDame, and so on and so on. So millions really are in order. Wait, this has turned into a big ad, hasn’t it? Anyway, Mike’s our business guy. Just don’t let him show you what he calls “the business end of HIS operation.”

Malt Shovel Media

The multimedia business that John and Mike put together while sipping Carling Extra Colds and smoking Montecristos at The Malt Shovel pub in Edinburgh. Combined, they are involved in newspaper, radio, television and now internet. Next up for Malt Shovel Media? Laser-projected programming on the surface of the moon.

There will be other team members coming onboard in the weeks ahead. Check back from time to time to see who’s collecting a check (or one heck of an IOU).
