Zito Madu

Kizito "Travis" Madu was an accomplished writer in his own right before joining The Bent Musket's staff. He has touched ink to paper for SB Nation Soccer and The Short Fuse on the network already, but his resume doesn't end there. He has credits from luminary blogs such as Twisted Blood, The Offside, and Surreal Football, and also blogs for soccer-focused clothing line Live Breathe Futbol. An avid reader of ancient literature and a Roman emperor enthusiast, Travis blogs under the name Octavian, and appreciates satire and humor most of all.
