Help me identify, I'm totally new!

The gills, which bruise a deep blue.

A side-view (Stem included)

Top-view

Close-up top-view

Habitat: Found growing in the soil, surrounded with grass in my back yard, inches away from my concrete house wall, next to a tree stump. It has been raining hard for a long time here (in Florida), and Ive been checking any and all mushrooms to see.

The gills appear to be very sponge-like, theyre a creamy white/off-white color. Again, VERY spongy, and bruise a deep blue when I poke it.

Aproximately 3-4 inches tall.

Cap: appears to be solid on the top, not bruising (though I havent cut it, or tried pushing so hard), and it seems to be pretty tough.

Is the spore print color absolutely necessary?

Bruises: Deep blue.

Scent: Musty, I suppose?

Other: I did not find this growing in poo, however it may have been fertilized at some point by my two dogs.

And those are pores not gills by the way.

What area are you in?

That's just semantics.

The same page refers to the "pore" surface many times.
Acording to the page you linked the underside is the pore surface.

They are commonly called pores.

This is from the same website, different page.

The Genus Boletus

[ Basidiomycetes > Boletales > Boletaceae . . . ]

by Michael Kuo

The mushrooms in Boletus are boletes that do not typically have scabers or glandular dots on their stems. Their spore prints are olive brown to brown (a few species with yellowish or rusty spore prints, often included in Boletus, are officially placed in Xanthoconium but are treated here with Boletus). They have solid stems, and their pores are not typically elongated and radial (as in some species of Suillus). Under the microscope, their spores are not ornamented.

This is just my direct response to the above post.
I am not going to argue about it.

That looks like a fair match for Tylopilus sordidus. It's listed in my references as being of unknown edibility.

Happy mushrooming!
