    Jacksonville already has one, right above its swimming pools.

    I've been to Everbank quite a few times since they put those in.  They really are amazing, and the sound system they put in is really nice as well.  As far as the pools, not rich so I don't know how it is to watch a game in a piss soaked pool.

    This is the part that kills me. That media notion that UCF is a more desirable expansion school than USF.

    Academics: Slightly to USF

    Football: Huge edge to USF right now

    Men's Basketball: No one gets any points here

    Overall Athletic Program: Huge edge to USF

    Athletic Facilities: Slight edge to USF

    Market (current): slight edge to USF

    Market (potential): slight edge to UCF

    Someone tell me where I am wrong here. I don't think I am looking through Green and Gold glasses. 

    Delusion: Huge edge to UCiF

    Holy monkeys that drop off between 13 and 14. And how far it fell in five years. Good to hear the numbers are increasing again. 

    '13 was the last AQ season, and an absolute disaster.  Got there in '09 and saw the great times, left in '14 at the worst times.  Really looking forward to 2016.

    Yes, I am sure Adams exaggerated...a little.  But I'd give it at a 50% chance that Flowers can throw close to 70.  He can effortlessly throw the long ball, although some here would say he puts a little too much air under it.  And I am absolutely positive he can throw a ball farther than Matt Ryan, Colt Brennan, and Josh Booty or whoever those QB's were.

    And by the way, argue with Adams, not me.  I merely quoted him in an article.  If anyone in this world would know Flowers arm strength, it would be Adams, not posters on this board.

    I believe that was John David Ass out of USC.

    I couldn't get admitted now either, and that's not a bad thing. Our alumni are doing big things.

    Here's an interesting one, no matter your political affiliation. There's a gentleman by the name of Omar Khan, who was USF's first Muslim student body president. Omar Khan went on to be a key staffer for Nancy Pelosi, and because of his work with her he became the first Muslim campaign manager for Charlie Crist when Crist ran for governor as a Democrat. Whether or not you feel Crist should have won, imagine the power we would have had with a former USF student body president whispering in the ear of the Governor of the State of Florida-nothing UF or FSU could do would have changed that.

    I saw him at the Maryland game last year and asked him what he was up to these days-he's helping implement the TPP. Regardless of people's views on the TPP, there's no doubt that this is an incredible thing for a USF alumni to be doing. 

    The only thing I'll say now is this-if people want to have a great university athletics program, and they want USF to be in the big 12-then we need to make the monetary investments. That can't all come from USF-people have to give donations and show that the donor pool is there to make the improvements necessary to be in the Big 12. 

    I hope UCF gets back to prominence too. I remember the mid 2000 games and how remarkably well they were attended. The big 12 will take notice if a G5 rivalry is putting 50k-60k in the stands. I just want them to keep losing to us every year :). 

    I think part of the reason the mid 2000s games had great attendance was they were in September.  Being on the same weekend as FSU-UF is a tough sell, especially on Thanksgiving.  I'm glad they've made the right move and made it on Saturday at least this year.

    I did a lot of work and I actually got 3 more online:

    Finally got that win against Greg Schiano and Rutgers at home.
    VS. Rutgers Scarlet Knights 2010 - 100th win in USF History

    Another game against Western Kentucky. Before Taggart was there.
    @ WKU Hilltoppers 2009

    I had to do a lot to salvage this one off of an old VHS tape. I think the results are pretty good considering the condition of the source. Also get to watch Matt Grothe throw against Darrelle Revis.
    VS. Pitt Panthers 2006

    You are the MAN!  Any chance you have 2007 vs. UCiF?  I could watch that game any day.

    Also, quick note, I didn't use the link in the OP because I wasn't sure if it was through the partner link to The BullsPen.  I went to the TBP homepage and found the partner link and ordered through there.   I recommend everyone do that since Brad gets a commission when we order through the partner links.

    OP, if that was a TBP link, I apologize.

    It wasn't, I'm new around here I didn't know that was in place.  Just saw a couple really good deals so I figured I'd share with fellow Bulls.
