I don't know what to say. Of the dozens of possible topics to close spring, that's what he chooses? It's unbelievable.

Attendance and OCS has been a topic of discussion.  Of course he pointed out how we were lower than a couple of AAC teams in terms of spring game attendance, but ignored that we were higher than most.

Attendance has always been an easy topic to write/talk about in terms of Tampa Bay sports and I stress EASY (could maybe replace it with LAZY)

JK just released an article about the attendance at the spring game...

The fact that JK omitted the obvious issue...it was head to head with a Lightning playoff game shows that there was some bias intended. I admit that was the reason that I did not go to the spring game. I am one of the few that would prefer that the game was at Ray Jay as opposed to Corbett also. Would not have mattered for me this year....but I was planning to go until the Lightning schedule was updated.

USF beat writer who didn't attend USF spring game due to other obligations writes article pointing out that others did the same.  This is some high level Joey Knight right here!

Now that is bad.  Was Page there instead?

The paper writes what is of interest to the fans, not the other way around. Hell, we had the best QB in the state for the past two years, winning games by the boatload...yet very few in Tampa care. No newspaper can change that....

It's sad, but we can't really blame the news paper when the school doesn't promote it. Someone just sent me a screen shot of a person that said they are on campus four days a week and didn't know there was a spring game.

USF Athletics and marketing should make it impossible for anyone on campus to be able to make that statement.
