Title: Karter Knox, 5-Star Basketball Recruit, Considers USF as Top College Choice

Tampa, November 1 – In the world of college basketball, excitement is brewing as Karter Knox, a highly touted 5-star recruit, narrows down his choices for his future alma mater. The University of South Florida (USF) has emerged as one of the top contenders for the talented athlete, setting the stage for a potential game-changer for the Bulls.

Karter Knox, a 6'8" forward from Tampa, Florida, has been the talk of the basketball community for several years. His incredible skills, versatility, and basketball IQ have made him one of the most sought-after prospects in the nation. With offers pouring in from top-tier programs across the country, Knox recently announced that USF is one of his top four choices.

The other three schools in Knox's elite list include Kentucky, Louisville, and going Pro, all of which have a strong basketball tradition and a track record of nurturing top talent. This decision is set to have a significant impact on the future of the Bulls' basketball program.

Knox's potential arrival at USF could usher in a new era of success for the Bulls. His scoring ability, defensive prowess, and leadership on the court make him a coveted addition to any team. With his size, athleticism, and work ethic, Knox is poised to make an immediate impact wherever he decides to play at the college level.

USF head coach Amir Abdur-Rahim has been actively recruiting Knox, emphasizing the Bulls' commitment to building a winning program. The coaching staff, along with current players, have been reaching out to the young star, highlighting the advantages of playing at USF. The school's strong academic programs and vibrant campus life also factor into Knox's decision.

Knox's visit to the USF campus is eagerly awaited by fans, students, and staff. While the young talent remains tight-lipped about his decision, the excitement around his potential arrival has generated a buzz throughout the USF community.

In the coming months, Knox will likely make his official visits to the four schools on his list, including USF. The college basketball world eagerly awaits his final decision, which is expected to be a game-changer for the chosen program. His arrival will undoubtedly shape the future of college basketball and the fortunes of the school he ultimately selects.

As Karter Knox's decision-making process unfolds, the basketball world will be keeping a close eye on his choice. Will he be a Bull? Or will he choose one of the other three top-tier programs? Time will tell, but one thing is certain: Karter Knox's journey to the college ranks promises to be a thrilling and pivotal moment for basketball fans everywhere.

The Times was (and IMHO remains) mostly a St. Pete paper, which is why I continue to call it the St. Pete Times despite its rebranding. The Times has always wanted USF's St. Pete campus to become a fully independent university. Fair or not, my impression has always been that St. Pete is generally insecure when it comes to comparisons with Tampa because Tampa has, e.g. the major airport, the major university, professional sports teams (except for the Rays, which is a whole other story on its own but is consistent with what I'm saying), etc. The university is just one example. 

Until recently (2018) USF St. Pete was independently accredited. The implicit goal was for it to eventually split off like USF Lakeland, but the GOP-dominated legislature put that to an end with Genshaft's cooperation and approval. It was just the latest in a long line of provincial outrages. And adding fuel to that fire, the Times' editorial board definitely leans left, so there's not much sympathy with anything the GOP does in the state legislature.

In any case, IMO that change has impacted how the Times covers USF both in terms of academics and athletics. Setting Brett McMurphy aside, I always felt like the Tribune was a little more favorable to USF. I don't expect anything to change with respect to how the Times covers USF football or anything else USF-related - neutral at best, negative at worst. I go to other sources.

Internet search reveals he’s multiple sizes and plays multiple positions.  

No to AI!  We need someone with the strength to do attendance/seat counts and player measurements to get us our information
