. . . reposting all these FSU-related tweets? And don't tell me it's a Willie Taggart thing. If so, where are all the Louisiana Tech retweets?

Funny, I'm not seeing any Jimbo Fisher/Texas A&M tweets on the FSU feed?

It’s definitely a WT/larger local audience thing. He’s also just going to where he is told to do so by his editors. If you can’t see the difference between WT at FSU and SH at LA tech you’re blind. That said, I think Joey has probably earned himself a promotion (just or not) to the FSU beat this summer. Between his connections to Taggart's staff from his time here and much to the surprise of those on this board he is also one of the times too college beat writers. Call it a gut feeling...

I'm blind? According to his Twitter feed, Matt Baker covers FSU for the Times. So why would FSU fans be looking at Joey Knight's feed for FSU reporting?

When did Baker switch from UF? 

 

And the blind statement is in reference to why TBT would be covering Tags at FSU and not Holtz at La Tech. You can’t be dense enough to not see the difference in the TBT’s view point.

Let’s lighten up on the personal side of the response. Neither needed nor welcome.

jK just really loves the Willie. We should be able to get over that part of his personal business in this day and age.

But the lack of USF coverage is reprehensible, and for that we shouldgiphy.gif
