I also called him out for not touting all of the positives that USF listed in their Big 12 package and instead finding the one negative that he could harp on. I think I caught the hosts completely by surprise that they were pretty much speechless.

To be fair to JK, this article appeared in today's paper, and Tuesday early evening on the TBT website, where he did a decent job of touting the positives of the package. What's sad is that neither of those 2 clowns had bothered to read it or they could have at least brought it up when you said that. They didn't even bother to read the only local sports section, good or bad, to prep for their show .... pathetic.

And to further evidence what I said elsewhere, the headline on JK's blog was "USF continues to make case to join the Big 12" . The exact same article in the print version had a big, bold headline of "USF pitch needed a rewrite", with a smaller article descriptor below that saying "A spelling error leads to social media jokes, corrected version" ..... what ********.

The afternoon co-host/producer on ESPN 580 in Orlando, Nick Gronowitz, is a USF alum who I believe called Bulls baseball games while at USF. Granted he doesn't drive the conversation, but he'll drop in a few good words for us from time to time which is admirable considering the market he is in.

My man Nick was all over USF on ESPN580 Orlando this afternoon. Said they would win the conference and put FSU on notice. Not surprising coming from an alumnus (and normal host was out), but it was really good to hear over here in Orlando.

I live in Lakeland and drive to Haines City for work daily. So I get to hear both stations. There's a HUGE difference between the areas when it comes to the topic of Big 12 expansion. When Orlando two sports stations speak about UCF and the Big 12. It's like they're lobbying for the school. You listen to Tampa station and you get this sarcastic and negative tone.

"Like there's no way USF will be considered. They haven't been good for a long time. They're history too short. Top recruits don't consider them when picking schools. They don't have a on campus stadium. They don't feel the stadium. The men basketball program is under investigation." And the that really bothered me was Douchebag with the, " If USF got into the Big 12, they would be bottom feeders." The Tampa media is a joke sometimes.

Property sports town vs. only game in town.

That was just the sot trying to piss people off to generate calls ..... even he isn't that stupid.
