  1. Hard Rock in Miami has shade that I'm assuming is graded for some serious storms, could go that style Their shade covers the whole stadium except for the playing field and visitors bench a lot of the time which could be a nice little advantage...
  2. Assuming it is. The Bay Area Examiner (what TDS rebranded to) tweeted out that USF shifted the practice schedule to Tuesday morning and Wednesday late afternoon to not miss any time during the storm.
  3. Wonder if we can still use the IPF? Or under a hurricane warning things are too locked down to practice?
  4. Connelly is pretty well respected in the gambling community, he's got USF covering (losing by 10)
  5. Better than the photo for sure. But 16.8K actual attendance in a 35k stadium is still pretty bad for an opener
  6. Their situation isn't really apples to apples with us either. Their "on campus" stadium is over 4 miles from their actual campus. This would be like if we built a separate live-work-play type campus in Seminole Heights and put the stadium there.
  7. San Diego State in the season opener of the 2nd year in their new stadium, going for 15 years in a row with no losing records. Only SOLD 23,867 out of 35,000....that actual attendance looks under 15k. Which one is this? On Campus Stadium doesn't actually fix anything. There isn't much competition to be the best G5 football program in a big market
  8. It's based on the recruiting rank every player had coming out of high school on that teams roster
  9. https://www.actionnetwork.com/article/author/collin-wilson This dude just put in his pick for the game, has WKU by less than a touchdown in a shootout. Thinks both defenses are weak.
  10. https://247sports.com/Season/2022-Football/CollegeTeamTalentComposite/ Based on overall recruiting talent on the roster the only team on our schedule that had more talent than us last year was Alabama. Assuming we lose that and beat FAMU. That leaves us 10 games vs teams smaller, slower, and more under recruited than us. I think in year 1 breaking in a new system Golesh can win 50% of those. 6-6. We play a middling MWC team in the Hawaii Bowl.
  11. Looking at our 8 game conference slate I really think we could go independent and schedule home and homes that are at least as intriguing to the casual fan. We’d be giving up a tiny TV deal, but as an independent could give a streaming service a stand-alone deal as a trial run. Netflix has a hard knocks style show during the off-season, then streams our games. We take the $$ loss but gain brand value through added visibility
  12. https://www.sportsbettingdime.com/college-football/public-betting-trends/ 89% of ATS bets for this game have been placed on USF, 94% of the money. If that doesn’t change the line will keep coming down. WKU is basically replacing everyone on defense, most their oline, and their offensive playcaller who led this system the past few years. Not to mention under Helton they have had rough week 1’s every year. I think this is more about them than us.
  13. However this is a stadium Populous is building in Germany right now for less than 340 million...swap out those trees for some Palms and I'd be proud to call this Tamplona
  14. Seriously, handling the QB battle in season like Jeff Scott is one of my new coach red flags. Looked it up and how did we not know this guy was clueless after year 1... 2020 Game 1: McCloud, Marsh, and Johnson all play Game 2: McCloud, Marsh, and Johnson all play Game 3: McCloud, Marsh, and Fortin all play Game 4: McCloud and Johnson both play Game 5: McCloud and Johnson both play Game 6: McCloud, Johnson, and Fortin all play Game 7: Noah Johnson plays entire game Game 8: McCloud and Marsh both play Game 9: McCloud plays entire game 2021: All offseason its hyped up that Cade Fortin is the guy, after 5 possessions he's yanked and Timmy is thrown in.
  15. Yeah...we're taking out 200 million in debt service for a 340 million dollar project. Houston's stadium is nice enough for us and that was 128 million in 2014 (about 165 million today). Not sure why getting something like that + a 25 million football ops center, and then only needing 50 million in debt service wasn't a more considered option.
  16. Darek confirmed the team knows as well, have to imagine its leaked before gameday
  17. https://www.flbog.edu/wp-content/uploads/2023/07/FAC-3.9-DBF-Memorandum.pdf This one has some interesting details on how much more money the USF Foundation is going to be giving to athletics going forward
  18. BOG has a lot of docs up for the meeting next week on our stadium. For anyone worried the Project Summary document already has a recommendation section filled in.. One of the docs also mentions 10,000 in scholarship seating, assuming thats the size of the student section
  19. Think yesterday we switched from fall camp mode to WKU game prep. may get a better idea of the depth chart with whose getting the most reps now
  20. I’ve seen references to San Diego State, CSU, and Houston’s stadium but now that you mention Minnesota’s I do see some similarities to that one and those shade option renders we had Huge club section on one side instead of luxury suites spread around the stadium. And the south side being tiny with a big gathering area behind it could see a 35k version of Minnesota’s stadium with shade and a football ops facility bookending that south side. Hopefully looks more like theirs than those renders…
