I am an editor with Roll Bama Roll as well as a contributor to Football Study Hall, Team Speed Kills and Stride Nation. I also write articles on the history of college football for SB Nation's main site.
While "kleph" is my nom-du-plume for SB Nation (and elsewhere) I am actually a working journalist writing under my real name C.J. Schexnayder. I have more than a decade-and-a-half experience working for newspapers, magazines and various other periodicals around the world.
I attended the University of Alabama in the mid-1980s and graduated from the University of Texas at Arlington in 1995.
