I can understand the big 3 plus FAU which is local, but I am tired of them showing UCF and not USF.I am going to write a strongly worded e-mail explaining how we are a ranked team with many kids from South Florida on our roster...oh and that we beat the hell out of UCF every year.I cannot wait to move back to Tampa!

Yeah, I know it would be nice for their paper to look beyond their region and include USF and FSU for their grads in the paper's subscriber list, but maybe they are assuming the interest/readership isn't there.

My father in Orlando sends me an article and my brother will send me the exact same one from the Sun Sentinel Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The Sun Sentinel basically borrows the preview from Orlando and prints it in South Florida. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The absence of UM and FIU should have sent up a flag that the preview obviously wasn't complete .... Hopefully, the excitable ones read this before dispatching a complaining email.

Perhaps, CJM should pull an "O'Leary" and not talk to them until they give us a separate listing.
