Saturday Road is hiring an ACC columnist

    Saturday Road is growing, and I am actively recruiting a full-time, salaried columnist to cover ACC sports.

    This is a terrific opportunity. You will quickly become the face and voice of our coverage.

    Your focus will be primarily football with a heavy, seasonal dose of basketball and baseball.

    Our SEC and B1G columnists at Saturday Down South and Saturday Tradition, respectively, have columns published every day. On average, you will write 10 columns per week. Included will be a couple of shorter blog posts.

    Previous ACC experience is a must. Ideally, you live in an ACC market. You are a columnist (or were before a buyout), someone with a unique and interesting style and perspective who enjoys turning a phrase. You have a critical eye but aren't a one-trick, made-for-TV hot-take artist. You chase and recognize great stories. Above all, you are somebody people want to read.

    If interested and qualified, please email a resume and links to 8-10 ACC columns to: chris.wright@xlmedia.com.

    Update: We are very excited to welcome Brett Friedlander as our ACC columnist.
    Brett is an ACC lifer who won numerous state awards as a columnist with two North Carolina newspapers before joining the online world.
    Brett provides Saturday Road instant credibility and decades of ACC experience -- keys to any relatively new and growing website.

    I posted this separately on the freelance board, but we also are recruiting a Notre Dame writer.
    If you are interested, feel free to email a resume and 6-7 Notre Dame clips to:
    chris.wright@xlmedia.com.

    Thank you,
    Chris Wright
    Executive Editor
    Saturday Road
