Brandon Stroud with the best slippers. USF vs. Florida, 8:30.

Gator players wearing Abdur-Rahim shirts in warmups to honor Coach Amir. All class. ⁦USF Men's Basketball⁩ ⁦Florida Gators⁩

First Lt. Joseph E. Johnston Sr. My Dad. Happy Veterans Day and thanks to all who protect our freedoms!

Andrew Stokes of #USF is a Ray Guy Award semifinalist (nation’s top punter). Co-sign! He is having a fantastic season.

2 former Tampa Tribune motorsports writers (both #USF grads) have co-authored a coffee-table book on the “mavericks” of ⁦NASCAR⁩ tampabay.com/sports/auto-ra…

Congrats to #USF volleyball, the American Athletic Conference regular-season champions. It’s the 150th conference championship in USF Athletics history.

#USF at Loyola Chicago, 12:30. Join us on Bulls Unlimited. Yep, Jim Lighthall and I got a photo with Sister Jean (age 105). Asked for her prayers because she has the direct line.

One day before #USF basketball faces unbeaten Utah State and we are getting some snow in Logan, Utah.

There are 6 remaining unbeaten teams in Division I men’s college basketball. USF Men's Basketball already has played two of them (Florida, Loyola-Chicago) and will face a third (9-0 Utah State) on Saturday afternoon.

Maybe the #USF Bulls should feel at home vs. Utah State? The Aggies have a Bull mascot.

Interesting stats (to me): Florida MBB is 13-0. Largest Gator deficit all season was 13 in opener vs. USF Men's Basketball. Gators are 6th nationally in 3-point defense (26.6 pct). #USF was 13-for-27 beyond the arc against Gators.

Doesn’t get any easier. Always a great honor. My Baseball Hall of Fame ballot. ⁦Ryan Thibodaux⁩ ⁦Adam Dore⁩

In Philadelphia for #USF vs. Temple. Stands to reason I would see this on a Philadelphia city bus.

Tampa Bay, ready for the Greatest Show in Sports? Tonight, Banana Ball comes to Ray-Jay. Savannah Bananas Jesse Cole

Ryan Pepiot will be Opening Day starter for Tampa Bay Rays Friday after injury to Shane McClanahan (no word on severity yet).

Good news on Shane McClanahan. Nerve irritation. Will start season on IL, but optimistic of return somewhat soon. Tampa Bay Rays

From a lifetime ago: #USF leads Florida by 13 points in first half of season opener. Monday night, Gators win national title.

Another #USF product will play for Tampa Bay Rays. INF Coco Montes has been called up from Durham.

Steve Kiner — Hillsborough High great, Tennessee All-American and NFL player — was among the best football players Tampa produced. He has died at age 77. RIP.

A very sad day. Tony Saladino has died. This is a beloved man who meant everything to Tampa baseball and it meant a lot when my son got to play in the Saladino Tournament.
