    Highly unlikely we start at 7:00. USF/Michigan is only in the second inning and it is already after 6:00. Probably looking at something closer to eight.

    Really infuriating this game is broadcast but the Gators' is not!

    All of USF's games in their tournament are shown on ESPN+. No other match-ups are. It is aggravating.

    Been that way as long as I can remember which is my one real complaint against Tim. He wants to give Tampa area fans a chance to see the Gators. Fine. There are at least two tournaments in Clearwater that are fully broadcast and another at least two in Orlando. If Gator fans can't take a drive up I4 or across the Tampa Bay bridge, they aren't much of fans. Tim does have a choice to help us but he doesn't do it. Nobody in this tournament has more power than UF and that includes USF. All he has to do is tell them in the future all of our games will be broadcast or we will go elsewhere.

    I think his friendship with Coach Erickson is a big part of that, too.

    The reason I didn’t talk to him is 1. He is not going to tell me anything I want to hear and I don’t like to listen to rationalizations. 2. I don’t verbally communicate as good as I once did. And 3. If what I hear pisses me off, I tend to let people know which serves no useful purpose.
    Try contacting him directly. Every contact keeps the problem alive.

    Here is Steve’s contact info:

    It’s on the App Store. Whatever live sports (Gators, pro and college) they are broadcasting, and national and local talk shows.
