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

I met Auman once at a sandwich shop in Vero (after the final Holtz ill advised camp in Dodger Town).  He was very friendly, talked openly about USF and other sports and seemed like a genuinely nice guy.  I hated when he left.  I mostly like JK, though at times he gets a little snarky, without great reason.

Still, the coverage is pretty good, but frankly, I get most of my USF news from Twitter.  Tito Benach is the best in many ways, as far as breaking news and not being combative.  Jeff Odom is a JK mentee, but often does good work.

Frankly, I'm just glad there is more positive news to report than ever, and enough media out there (Twitter, here, blogs, etc.).

Tito is outstanding...gives great news without trying to be "cute" like the others.

This was a fine article.  It's amusing to me that some of you guys are so consumed with your hatred of all-things UCF that you flip out about a benign article like this.

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

Evil Skip Holtz was fantastic. :D

The only one that could be classified as a "flip out" over the article was the OP and even he later admitted he may have jumped the gun a bit. Everyone else pretty much also saw the article as benign.

I didn't bother reading through all the comments, but it's good to hear the original poster came off the hissy fit.  I predict more such UCF hissy fits in the days ahead, though.

Awesome.  It'd be great if folks would confine the hissy fits to said board.

We do have hissy fits that pop up here from time to time ..... It's the, rare these days, dueling fits that get beamed over to other board.
