You're the man! Thanks!

Thanks man! Won't be able to see any of the cuse game, only one I'll miss all year. As far as I know cbs sports doesn't have replay streaming like ESPN. Any chance you'll be doing the same thing for that game?

I've gone to every one of them this year. I don't think anybody but taggart and Jim louk can say that. Seriously, there were 6 other people besides my fiancé and I. Didn't ask him any questions b/c I left after the players spoke but I had a couple observations... 1. Taggart was not wearing his normal Usf polo. He was wearing a button up like he just left a job interview. 2. Once again a player makes a good play call! Coach T and Sean price talked about how Price made the call on one of his pass completions. Taggart seems oddly proud of this. I mean I like price, but at a certain point you should be proud of your own play calling right? 3. Taggart talks about how much he trusts auggie to make adjustments on D. I really wish he had the same trust in an OC.

bj went off in that game, I think he had over 200 yds passing and over 200 yds rushing or close to it. 2007 against nati sticks out to me b/c the first half lasted ridiculously long(2 hours?) due to multiple scores including back to back kick off returns for tds by both teams(if I remember correctly, I was quite intoxicated). Also, the student section lost their **** when Jessie Hester dropped a td pass at the end of the game.

"If jack harbaugh could see me now"

Last night on the Bulls radio show, taggart said d'ernest johnson made the play call for the 70 yard td pass play. D'ernest was there and said in the huddle he brought it up to coach t b/c of what he saw the safety doing on previous plays. I thought that was interesting. Johnson for O-coordinator! Also, my fiancé and I were probably two of 10 people at the radio show at grillsmith last night. I know grillsmith is a sponsor, but beef's was a way better place to have the show. It is 15 mins from my house though, so I can't complain that much.

Don't care how many bulls fans will be there, on the road to tally right now. Bulls flags flying!

Our friend Norman has an excellent point. There is a fair chance of a meltdown after the first play call. Not if it's an 80 yard td Depends on who scores the 80 yard TD... Mcneese started with an 80 yard td

2009-B.A. Fun fact: Grothe was in my graduation commencement

McCants needs to step up

Bulls win 41-3 Mack Adams 430

Thanks for the updates. I went to the practice yesterday, but of course it was short lived due to weather. Wish I could've made it out today, but my hangover wasn't having it.

I hope that Tom Allen can get the job done. I'm tired of having a new D coordinator every year. At least he seems to bring some excitement to the D in practice. bresnahan just seemed bored at times, but maybe that's from him coaching for 100 years. O coordinator expectations? Some 1st downs would be exciting.

"Hood" velocity sounds great!

Maybe not for football but I'd say the basketball team meets that criteria. And how big is that fanbase? We would fill the Sun Dome with a consistently winning program... we did from 1989-1992... #justsayin So how long does it take to get a diehard fanbase vs the current fair weather fans. 75 years, 100? We saw the students' section doing well last year --and then the team loses and the empty seats returned. There's no loyalty until we get in some major good years. A lot of the diehards we have now are from the Leavitt era. I'm sure both Holtz and CWT haven't brought on that many fans, if any! Last season it seemed there were a couple home games where the students showed up big time (enough for the commentators to mention it) and yet the rest of the stadium looked pathetically empty. As a recent former student, the students will show up if: 1. It is the beginning of the season and, as Freshman, they have an interest in checking out their new school's football game atmosphere. 2. Before people get tired of taking the Bull Runner to the games to watch a losing team. 3. We get through the first four games undefeated. 4. There are no other major events going on with Greek. 5. We are playing a good, big name opponent such as Auburn, West Virginia, FSU, Florida, Alabama, etc. Students will not show up if: 1. We are playing against a school like South Harmon Institute of Technology. 2. The team loses a momentum building game that just stabs you in the heart to lose and you no longer care about the team until they prove to be winners. 3. The team is embarrassed by a team we should beat easily or if we are simply blown out because we are overmatched. 4. There are free t-shirts (they'll only show to get their free t-shirt if they believe there is another reason to go all the way down to Ray Jay for the night). 5. It's a cool day. (And the team is worth watching) 6. It's a night game. (And the team is worth watching) 7. It's evident the team and coaching staff have given up. 8. Poor scheduling/ bad luck with holiday timing and students are not on campus/ busy with something else related to game time scheduling or holiday. This complete list is not limited to my responses for why students do or do not show up in masses. Feel free to add other reasons if you feel compelled. Wow I f'd up that quote. Anyways I agree with all your points, but you would think that at some point the students would understand that your only a student once. Getting in free and being a part of the student section should be something to embrace as part of being a student for four years. That used to be enough anyways. Grant it I got to rush the field while I was a student and you never knew how we were going to play back then so it added to the excitement. I think it's hard for students to realize that being able to say "I went to every game as a student" means something, especially when we have been so terrible. Does anyone care about fandom anymore? Loyalty? This is going to be your alma mater!

Went to the GB vs TB game last year. Made sure I yelled out "barrington!" followed by Usf chants whenever he made a good play. Didn't really catch on with anybody else, but I felt like I did my part. GO PACK GO!!!

Does anyone know if Sawyer is hurt or not on the team? He didn't show up on the spring game roster, but is still on the website roster.
