UCF needs more bofa.
Can't troll a troll.
I respect the effort, though.

@USFAthletics Campus life at #USF in January. #BayMade #GoBulls
@UCFKnights @USFAthletics yeah but campus life in January at #UCF...

Honestly, this is innovative and neat. We'll see how it's executed, but they'll get a lot of press every single game that's televised because it's unique. Detractors can talk about being far from a beach, but I loathe when the Pirate Ship gets a close up during our games. At least people think "beach trip" when they hear "Orlando" (or Tampa, for that matter).
Worst case, for them, they build over it if it sucks. We don't even currently have the option to experiment like this.
It's par for the course in Orlando, the land of make believe. There are no beaches remotely close to Oviedo, so they make one that wobbles. There have never been knights or pegasi in Orlando, so they adopt as primary and secondary mascots. I'll be looking forward to beating the Knights next year at their house.

Finally ventured into this buffoonery and of course you got him .... We didn't want him.
One thing I did note is that he was only the 3rd Floridian commit/signee of this class for the Kanigits ... That's probably a pretty good strategy if you have the scouting network to do it justice.
Major P5 programs like UF, UM, and USC want him, but USF with all of their prestigious zero conference championships and zero end of season rankings didn't want him.
OK.

Was he the guy that started or was he the backup in the UCF game?
Because I thought the backup was better, albeit with limited snaps.

UCF on the same level academically? They're a degree mill.
There's a reason we have more grad students (despite being smaller) and 3x the endowment / research expenditures (... despite being smaller). Get your head out your ass if you think UCF is on a level playing field with us academically. They compare more favorably to FAU and FIU.
16 year old's SAT scores may be negligibly better for UCF, however the research money institutions POUR into USF isn't even close. What's more indicative of academic success?
To me, academic success is your students graduating and going out into the real world and getting good jobs, making good money and giving back to the University.
Awesome. Do you have any statistics to give us which shows this? For some anecdotal evidence, I now make 6-figures after graduating from my beloved USF and give back 5-figures every year (through a company match).
Endowment size is almost ubiquitously viewed as *the* standard for judging a university. There's a reason Harvard has the largest endowment, why UF has by far the largest endowment in our state, and why UCF is closer to (but still behind) FAU than any of the other major public FL universities. Money talks. Degree mills don't fetch large investments from outside entities nor do they typically have capacity to handle capital as well.
You'll need more than flash in the pan success to overtake us in endowment or research expenditures. Good luck with that med school.
You sound like a smart guy.
Our endowment is hilariously small, however that stadium beach bar, tho

Kind of like a Pirate ship at a stadium where the bools play.So you guys needed something to entertain people who don't want to watch your football team play and find themselves 100 miles from a beach?
So you're modeling yourselves after us? We're flattered.
That would require us to play off-campus, so nah.
If we need tips on handing out the opposing team's colors to the student section during homecoming or if we need a primer on getting shut out at home to a rival, we will definitely let you all know though!

Will the beach wobble too?
Just hoping it has water when it opens.

Big changes are coming to UCF’s football stadium this season: a new beach-themed club will rise and so will season ticket prices for some fans.
School officials announced the changes Monday as they prepare to kick off the 2015 football season-ticket sales campaign.
The beach-themed area is just one part of a new premium seating experience called the East Side Club, and construction is scheduled to start in three weeks at Bright House Networks Stadium. The project is expected to be completed before UCF football's first game.

FWIW - I wish we'd act more like a degree mill, at least for student athlete admissions. Prematurely acting like we were Stanford is half the reason both of our main revenue programs are in the state they're in.

WTF's wrong with having a fishbowl full of condoms?
Seems like a damned wise thing to do.
Kids are going to do it anyway, far better they do it safely.
Nothing wrong with a fishbowl of condoms.
Last thing we need as a nation is another generation of potential USF students.

USF already learned pride comes before the fall. UCF fans are acting pretty juvenile right now pounding their chest on some ok accomplishments... they'll grow up one day too, which I'm surprised hasn't happened yet with GOL lying, playing a role in the death of a player, being accused of racism, bowl bans and being outrecruited by a coach of a 2-10 and 4-8 team.
TLDR: no smack talk needed, what's coming will speak for itself.
You might be right.
Hey! You guys might even score on us next year.
-
I can't dispute the success UCF has had
But this should put any academic smack you try to bring in to bed.
Not quite.
UCF still requires higher scores to get in.

...Although it was fun looking up how well our university has progressed.
That was well researched and thought out.
You provided several lists and rankings.
I have done my own research.

Well, there you go. Higher standardized test scores from high school. I've been burned. If only I could find some sort of national organization that ranks colleges on their academics. That would be super helpful if one of those thought USF was better.
Sorry to say but you got burned. You got trolled and you lost. You well for the old my school is better than you BS with good ole UCiF. Next time just teach him a lesson in math as I dont think they teach that over there. Tell them that 4 is greater than 2. Which means that USF has 4 wins head to head with UCF compared to their 2 wins against USF. Heck, you may want to through in the 64-12 number as the cherry on top but I think that number is so big that it would blow his mind.
I tip my trilby to good trolls.
You know what you are doing, sir.
The other gentleman, not so much.

@USFCollin: USF gets 3 star Malik Vaccaro-Dixon to decommit from C. Florida says @joshnewberg247. USF: “HAHAHA.†C. Florida “We didn’t want him anyway!"
Kid unfortunately didn't have the grades for THE University of Central Florida.
I wish him well. Should've chosen a better school than USF, though.
Like FIU.
Stick to the football smack talk. At least there's some marginal truth to it. You look like even more of a dipshit when you play the academic card with UCF.
We're 10 spots ahead of you academically and moving up. You've been stuck on 172 for the last decade or so.
Figures though. A crappy university in a crappy town hiding behind a toll road is nothing to be proud of.
I am willing to have the debate over which school has better academics.
We can meet at your on-campus football sta... oh... wait.
Better yet, we can meet at your indoor pra... ah, nevermind.

University of South Florida finally playing a home game in... South Florida. Shocking.

USF OCS and indoor practice facility to be completed on:
Neveruary 35, 20Nope.

USF still doesn't have either an indoor practice facility or an OCS, huh?
UCF trolls USF about not having an OCS on Twitter.
