Goodbye from John Silver

Goodbye from John Silver - Leaving the industry.

There will be an UConn information void that needs filling.

Goodbye from John Silver - Leaving the industry.

There will be an UConn information void that needs filling.

Thanks for your coverage of UConn John. Good luck.

 

[SonsOfNutmeg]

Wow... Wonder where hes going? Also, is this the end for UConn Football online editorial content on SNY??

 

[Kgun7]

John - Thank you for everything you have done the last 10 years! Good luck in your future endeavors ... you will be missed!

 

[FDNY99]

Good luck John...he was always good for a back and forth on Twitter about UCONN football or hoops.

 

[CL82]

He'll be missed. Classy goodby column.

So let's start the nominations for who should take his place - @3uconn

[By the way feel free to join the Boneyard...]

 

[Dooley]

Good luck John! Yes, you will be missed. Could always count on him for active tweets and articles. More active than most.

 

[NYUConn]

John is the absolute best. Can't say more than what has already been said, but he was one of the most engaging and knowledgeable sources on UConn athletics that we had. He was great to his readers.

This is a serious loss for UConn fans.

 

[Fishy]

It's certainly not good news for us.

But he's a young guy and that's a business that's in dire straits - I'm glad he's found something on solid ground.

 

[sportsart]

That sucks. Met him several times. Great guy.

He will be missed.

 

[ConnHuskBask]

Good luck John. Always one of the most informative and fair UConn reporters.

 

[Nostical]

Totally agree with Sportsart. John's a really good guy. He's been to our tailgate. Just like SonsOfNutmeg, I'm also concerned about our coverage on SNY.

 

[BlueDogs]

One of the few in the horde with at least some blue running in the blood. Rest are Syracuse turncoats or just don't care to think we deserve a national level program.

 

[uconn34]

Thank-you

 

[tjhusky]

Thanks for all of the coverage of all UConn sports I like to think that you have done your best to keep up interest in UConn football during some tough times over the last few years.

Good luck in your new endeavors.

 

[CTBballfan243]

John is really going to be missed. Is there anyone left to cover UConn football?

 

[Jimdish255]

John best of luck. I can only repeat the sentiments above on what a great contribution you have made for the UConn players and fans. Some epic quotes on twitter!
(epic sounded pretty good in my head)

 

[Adios]

Replacing him will not be easy. We might need to be a winning program again before someone can be inspired to write as well as he did.

Thank you John, and best of luck. Selfishly, it's sad to see the best people leaving journalism, but pay and job security being what it is, I'm happy you've found an exit.
