Having been a sports junkie all my life, I’ve read many, many sports publications. The Osceola tops them all. From recruiting to credible background information and historical facts regarding FSU sports, The Osceola has been the best at reporting. There is none other I would trust more regarding FSU sports information. The Osceola has always been the bastion of facts and professionalism.

As an FSU alum and lifelong sports fanatic, I can honestly say that The Osceola is hands down the best source for Seminole sports coverage. The content is comprehensive, up to date, & well-written by writers that are clearly passionate and knowledgeable about the Seminoles. It's my go-to source for all FSU sports

What I love about Osceola is it feels personal. It’s not just headlines, it’s real insight from people who know the culture, the grind, and the heart of Florida State. They do it right, and they do it with class.” Kez McCorvey, FSU All-American & National Champion (1993)

Kez McCorvey

FSU Wide Receiver (1990-1994)

The Osceola is an integral part of the history of FSU athletics,As an FSU football player, coach, and supporter I have always looked forward to hear and read Jerry and Bob’s often nuanced view of FSU sporting events with great anticipation. Their perspective has decades of context around every take, and I appreciate the well thought out reporting and columns that speak to the committed fan of FSU sports and not necessarily trying for “clicks” with sensational reporting.

Kyra Singh

Mark Salva

FSU Offensive Lineman 1984-87, Coach 1990-93

As a proud FSU alum and Seminole fan, I have always trusted The Osceola for insightful, in-depth coverage of our program. Jerry’s 40+ years of covering and loving the Noles brings a depth of perspective you just can’t find anywhere else. Whether it’s during the season, recruiting, or behind-the-scenes with players and coaches, The Osceola keeps me connected to the heart of FSU athletics.

I come to The Osceola because of its unique experience of 40-plus years of unrestricted Seminole coverage. The articles are the best in the business, and the best poster on any board I have been on is Jerry Kutz. His knowledge of the inner workings of Seminole Booster and the Athletics program along with his keen knowledge of football makes The Osceola the preeminent FSU site without question.

Kyra Singh

Mike Sundquist (FSU Class of 2000)

The Osceola is the only source I trust for coverage of FSU athletics. The staff’s unique knowledge and perspective pertaining to the inner workings of FSU athletics, combined with its decades of experience and commitment to integrity and credibility, makes The Osceola the very best on the beat.

The Osceola, with its classic style of journalism, has been my preferred source for Florida State athletic news for years. The Osceola has focused on providing a balanced opinion. It doesn’t sugar coat the bad times or fret during the good times. It provides accurate and timely information to help assess how FSU and its teams are performing. I’ve particularly enjoyed listening to post-game podcasts during football season and the game predictions from the full staff. My subscription has been well worth it.

Are you tired of unreliable information? Get what’s what. I learned growing up on a dirt road, if you want the truth, if you want a cold drink of water, go to the head of the stream. In this case, the head of the stream is our local news source, The Osceola. Bobby Bowden used to say, “Don’t depend on the undependable.” Well, it’s been my experience you can depend on The Osceola. It’s time to get our game face on.

Kyra Singh

Jim Gladden (Former FSU Asst. Coach)

From the moment I first arrived at Florida State in the late 80's, the Osceola has been and remains the best and most trusted source for Florida State athletics news. The saying goes that "it's all about relationships" and nobody has more or deeper relationships with the key figures in FSU Athletics than Jerry Kutz, who's covered the Seminoles for close to half a century. Though the method of communicating FSU information has changed over the years, the quality of the information and its value has not. Over the years I've continued to consume the Osceola's news to help me prepare for FSU TV and Radio broadcasts, and to stay informed as a Seminole.

A lot of my female friends call me about what is happening in FSU sports. They think I know everything about new recruits, who is going to be our starting QB, new coaching hires, etc. I get all my information from The Osceola. It is my go-to for current information. My favorite is knowing who the new football recruits are, especially those whose dads played for Florida State when I was Coach Bowden's Administrative Assistant. That warms my heart to know they want to play where their dad played. The Osceola is the first thing I read each morning when I sit down to enjoy my morning coffee. I appreciate being in the know for my friends, thanks to The Osceola.

Sue Hall

Bobby Bowden’s Administrative Assistant (1979 – 2009)

Some FSU sites thrive on clickbait. Not the Osceola. I can always count on Jerry, Bob and company to report the important stuff, without the fluff, and to offer the kind of deep, level-headed perspective no other outlet can touch. And when it comes to important off-field issues like conference realignment, stadium renovations, facilities upgrades, NIL rule changes and coaching hires, the Osceola is the only source I trust.
