Calling jhodges a "guest" on HailToPurple.com may be a bit of a misnomer: as of 2008 Jonathan Hodges is the primary content provider for the site.

From 2004 until 2007 jhodges hosted his own Weblog featuring NU football analysis and commentary.  In July 2007 jhodges began posting his commentary here.  Click here for the jhodges main page.
