If I were you, Id choose Tampa. From what Ive heard and researched, Tampa seems like alot more fun than Orlando. Also, your cousin is the damn president of the university, you cant beat that.

Check this site out, its pretty cool. You basically answer a bunch of questions and they come up with the optimal cities to live in. All my top picks came up, Phoenix/Tempe being #1 for me...
