Bill Yadlon

Originally from Tinton Falls, New Jersey, Bill Yadlon is currently a full time Industrial Engineering student at Purdue University in West Lafayette, Indiana.

As a huge metropolitan area sports fan, Bill classifies the New York Jets, New York Mets, New Jersey Nets and New York Islanders as his favorite teams.

More so than anything, his interests in sports, and influences for his work involve specific players. Some of the favorites include, but are not limited to: David Wright, Johan Santana, Jake Peavy, Darrelle Revis, Francisco Liriano, Ian Kinsler, Jay Cutler, and Kris Jenkins.

Despite not much professional experience, Bill had found his niche writing as a hobby in his spare time. Having studied creative and essay writing, as well as journalism briefly in the past Bill has been honing his craft on several member based news sites, prior to joining the Suite101 team.

No sport is off limits for Bill, but his strongest areas of expertise include the MLB, NFL and NBA.

Within professional sports, my biggest area of specialization is on the draft and draft history. Bill has begun working on his first book, entitled, "Now on the Clock: A What-if look back at the past 15 years of the draft".
