As the dominant newspaper for the south-bay counties of Sarasota & Manatee, the change in interest in USF football since the arrival of Taggart is nothing short or amazing.

Nice article but not sure why the change in interest is "amazing'. He's one of their own and you'd pretty much expect the interest to jump significantly in a case like that ...
Exactly.

It is exciting/amazing to have so much more coverage with just a change in coach

Mind you we'll just have to see if the coverage continues as the seasons starts and progresses along

Holtz wanted his players to fail and he wanted to fail.

Because having Lou Holtz's son as coach, including USF going to Notre Dame (and winning), didn't bring any increased coverage.  :rolleyes:

Probably didn't - in Manatee.

Skip Holtz announcement in H-T  was 4 pages  http://www.heraldtribune.com/article/20100115/article/1151032

 

CWT announcement in H-T was 3 pages  http://www.heraldtribune.com/article/20121208/ARTICLE/121209626

 

Probably more people from Conn where Skip was born, in Bradenton, than people born in Manatee county. None of my neighbors or friends were "Floridians". They were from the northeast and Michigan.

it's not about one article...it just seems like there's been more coverage. for example since # of pages seems to matter, a few weeks later they did another article on Taggart (http://www.heraldtribune.com/article/20121231/ARTICLE/121239943?p=4&tc=pg) (4 pages - since that matters). Since you seem to be all know, did they do the same for skip? (side not, I wasn't trying to make this a Taggart verse holtz thing, when I mentioned a change in coach)

 

oh wait,nevermind, I forgot you're all knowing, sorry to question you :ph34r:

I'm happy our bulls are back in the press for something other than sucking, but I'm not buying any hype this time.... Ill support the program, but I'm going Missouri on this one...

Skip never made the front page of the front section of the SHT.  CWT has made it twice in a couple months.  And the coverage has been 99% positive of every aspect of USF football since CWT arrival.

Is the front page, A1?  Because if so, you are wrong. Oh and its 6 pages.

http://www.heraldtribune.com/article/20101113/ARTICLE/11131026

 

Skip Holtz plots new course for USF Bulls

"This story appeared in print on page A1" on 11/13/2010

 

 

And if you are going to say that is about USF, one section alone is called "Home with the Holtzes".

    “In my mind, I’m kind of like, ‘OK, excuses over'. We know what we need to do. We’ve got the right team together, and now we move forward, and we’ll evaluate and be accountable to each other, including myself, from this point forward.”

    "There is no inherent fear among this group of players. The fear of failing drove the program from day one - the fear of failing the coaches, the fan base, the university, each teammate, themselves. Now, as we head into the biggest game in our history at home on a national stage against the highest ranked team to step on OUR field, the players are taking an introspective look at themselves. Unfortunately, I don't know if they get it. They lack the fear."

    Terry Lucas, 09/26/22
