THE 'SEC-OLOGIST'

As the south’s sweetheart of sports, Ms. Baribeau has been dubbed an “SEC-ologist” as she has covered the SEC, and college football, for over ten years. In fall of 2015, she was bestowed a Heisman vote by the Heisman Trust. She was the first female host on SiriusXM ESPNU. She can also be heard on ESPNU, SEC and ACC channels in the SiriusXM family of Networks. 

A CHAMPION OF CAUSES

Outside of work, Ms. Baribeau may put down the microphone but chooses to pick up a megaphone and rally others for the causes in her community. In April of 2014, she organized a climb up Kilimanjaro for former NFL, and Alabama, fullback Kevin Turner, who suffers from ALS. The climb was later turned into a movie narrated by Mike Ditka.

AN ACTIVE SPEAKER

Rachel is also an avid speaker at many a college, quarterback club, and church. In 2016 she founded she blazed another trail with the movement, #ChangingtheNarrative. Since August of 2016, she has visited 35 schools, and counting, talking to young athletes about being Kings and Queens through purpose, passion and platform; and an increased and real look at mental health and how we deal.
