Attention Champaign Room Readers: Let's Run This

Hey everyone,

I'm not sure how many people actually look at these fan posts, but I figured it would be worth a shot to write one.

As we all probably know, Tom Fornelli isn't going to be running this website anymore. I think I speak for a lot of people when I say that this site is awesome, and it would be a shame if it were to completely stop. I'm not sure if the other writers are going to take over or not, but I have an idea regardless...

In his last post, Tom mentioned that SBNation is now looking for someone to run things here. I think it'd be a great idea to get a small group of people to run the site for the time being--until a suitable replacement could be found anyway. I wouldn't worry too much about experience; I'm a current student at UofI with very little background in journalism (so that makes me perfectly qualified, right guys?). The important thing is that The Champaign Room keeps going

So if you're interested comment below, or email me at illini_nation44@yahoo.com . If a few people show interest we can contact SBNation and see about continuing this masterpiece.

Go Illini,

Jim Vainisi
