Yes, all of 3 paragraphs worth.  Meanwhile the UF section took up 2 FULL pages of the "sports" section.  There was one "oh by the way, the baseball team is playing UCF" part.

You know, the Oracle is not a booster paper. It's not there to be biased in anyway for or against USF. It's independent of the University completely. Now, far be it for me to support UF in anything, but the fact is, winning the national championship for a second time with the same starting 5 is a bit larger of a deal than us hiring a new basketball coach (from a news perspective). It was on the front page (and I didn't see the sports section but I bet there was another write up about it there too).

True, but still, it needs to at least shed some light on Heath...

Total BS.  The Oracle represents USF.  It is THE school newspaper.  There isn't another one.  How hard is this to comprehend?  Do you really see the FSU paper talking about UF's bball championships?  What about Miami's?  Hell, I bet even the Univ of Tampa's school paper has nothing more than maybe 2 sentences geared towards UF's bball win.
