With all that’s going on in BYU sports, we’ve got too much to cover and not enough time. We need fans who want their voice heard to join the Lawless Republic team.

We’re covering the No. 1 women’s volleyball team in the nation.

And the No. 2 men’s cross country team in the country.

Not to mention the No. 17 women’s cross country team nationwide.

Plus there’s the women’s soccer team that’s off to a strong start, and the football team that’s already pulled off one surprise and is looking for more.

There’s too much to write about and too little time to do it.

That’s where you come in.

BYU has one of the strongest nationwide fanbases of any university, and we’re some of those fans who have the opportunity to pass along our passion for Cougar sports in our writing. We need more fans like us who love to watch, analyze, and share insights into BYU athletics.

Lawless Republic has multiple openings for writers, and we want to fill them with Cougar fans who want to make sure their voice is heard.

Expectations

Anyone who writes for Lawless Republic is free to cover any aspect of BYU sports. Is your passion football? Then write about it. Are you a recruiting junkie? Share your insights and analysis.

We want to cover all all the sports and all aspects of Cougar athletics. From basketball to swimming, from previews to profiles, you can write about it.

You’re already busy with various aspects of life: a family, school, a full-time job. We know how that is, since we’re the exact same.

More from Lawless Republic

Writers are asked to contribute as little as an article or two a week. You’re welcome to write more.

You don’t have to have a degree or previous writing experience (although that’s always a plus). All you need is a desire to share your insights with Cougar Nation.

Ready to Write?

Getting started is easy. Simply fill out an application here. You’ll be asked to give some insight into your previous writing background (if any), what you most want to write about, and why you think you’d be a good addition to the Lawless Republic team. You’ll add in a writing sample and you’re all set. We’ll get in touch with you from there.

If you have any questions about the roles, please feel free to email our recruiting director, Kyle Franzoni, at kyle.franzoni@fansided.com.
