Would you rather them write nothing at all?But you're saying the Oracle editorial should "piss me off" and not the Trib or Times?Some girl telling why she wears a Gator shirt opposed to some reporter telling a wide audience that USF is not the place to be? That in Brett's words we're embarassing?Come on.And yes, I'd rather not a single article be written if that is the only option to select in place of Trib trash. "Nothing" is better than a smear.Our basketball program is bigtime? We really are from two different planets. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The Jones piece was a column, which is supposed to entertain, not relay facts ..... along the same lines of sports talk radio. It's a slow time of year and the USF job search is ripe for the plucking. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

At this point any publicity is good publicity for USF basketball. This was actually one of the highest profile pieces on USF bball all year as it took up a prime spot and had many pictures and was funny. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
