Join the Rule of Tree Team

SB Nation is nice enough to provide us hosting for the site, but ultimately, Rule of Tree is a fan community that thrives on participation. This fan community is run by people who are passionate about Stanford sports for people who are passionate about Stanford sports. While Jack, myself, and a handful of others work hard to bring you the latest and greatest of all things Stanford, the fact remains Rule of Tree needs more voices to contribute to our community. We are always looking for new voices and perspectives, but now we want to explicitly invite you to contribute. We are looking for exceptional Stanford men and women to join the Rule of Tree team.

Questions to Consider:

• Are you passionate about Stanford sports?
• Do you love to write/create podcasts or videos?
• Do you have a solid understanding of college sports? (If you are a regular reader of Rule of Tree then you probably do)
• Can you write good?
• Were you bothered by the previous question?

If you answered yes to these questions then you should strongly consider writing for Rule of Tree. Understand though, that this is a fan community, we do this because we love Stanford sports, and do not have the funding for paid positions.

How to get in contact with us:

If you are interested in Stanford basketball (women's and men's), football recruiting, baseball and other Stanford sports then we definitely want to hear from you. Please email Nick at nickdempsey@gmail.com or Jack at jmblanchat@gmail.com with a resume and a writing sample
