Joe Willett Hooks Up With Hoops4Life.com

Joe Willett joined Bleacher Report just six months ago. A seventeen year old high school student, he came to the site looking to get involved in an online community where he could show off his basketball expertise and engage in discussions with like-minded fans.

Little did he expect that just a short time later he’d be one of the Open Source Sports Network’s rising stars. Joe has published 131 articles and 904 comments to date; he assumes the post as Chicago Bulls Community Leader and is known for regularly speaking his mind on how to improve Bleacher Report’s site offerings.

Some very good news has come Joe’s way recently, as Hoops4Life.com has offered to pay him to write about his favorite sport. How about that—this kid’s getting his first professional writing gig before his high school diploma. I wish I was that cool when I was seventeen…

The sky is the limit for Joe. We wish him all the best with Hoops4Life and are excited to see that he is more engaged in Bleacher Report than ever before.
