Auman wasn't perfect by any stretch, but at least it came off as if he liked USF. JK is awful and not because of this article. His entire body of work is garbage. The attendance thing is ridiculous. His Twitter is just him trying to come across as the smartest guy in the room. If there's real news to report, he's about 10th in line to report it. Name one time you read a JK article and it contained something you didn't already know or couldn't type "usf football" into Google and find out.

There are positive USF pieces in the Orlando Sentinel all the time.

JK hates USF!  How dare he pick USF to win the conference!  He must be fired!

He was asked by his boss to write an article on UCF and he didn't want to get fired?

You can take the name JK and substitute it with Collin Sherwin and I would believe every word you say.

Big difference, though. Collin is a blogger vs. a paid journalist. I have lower expectations. Also, Collin actually likes USF.

Not gonna lie - Collin and team's articles about The Holtz New Error are pretty entertaining though.

The fake Holtz and Cosh twitter accounts were the best writing of that era.

The attendance thing is definitely ridiculous but there have been plenty of times I've seen news firsthand from JK. Could most have probably been found with a Google? Most assuredly, but I'm not going to Google "usf football" every freaking half hour to find out what's going on .... I really don't give a crap about JK wanting to be the first with breaking news. We had a TMZ-type beat reporter whose priority that was and it sucked. Joey ain't perfect but I think he does a decent enough job most of the time.

Auman took advice AND he learned a lot from the dramatic and miserable failure of a beat writer Brett McMurphy became.

I like Colin at times, but he's the king of snark, and takes joy in trying to come off as the Dennis Miller of USF Bloggers.

He's the classic case of a guy would say 1/10th of the stuff to you in person as he does on Twitter.

    We've talked about getting back to being the toughest, most violent people out there. Let's be the best version of ourselves and really get back to the culture of how we (USF) used to step across the line and play anybody. Let's hold on to the culture of when they were tough … and they (opponents) knew it was going to be long damn day for themselves.
