Holy crap this thread and our coaching search is a dumpster fire.

Yet, I also love you for your sarcasm. 

I hate this thread with all of my USF Bulls soul.  An official f u to the person who created it.  I grew up with USF Football and Betty brought it to us. Screw you.

Okay, good.

If you still believe that kids go to schools to play football because they like the school, you are probably still putting teeth under your pillow and waiting for Santa to come down the chimney. Our QB was going to leave and could find nothing better so he came back. This is a business.

I see that and accept that criticism.  Sometimes you can build an audience by going to school locally, showing grit, and generating your legend.  See Grothe.

We should lose that requirement, for sure.  I don't recall us having this kind of standard during Betty's watch, and we were better off.

That was a LONG time ago though.  Not sure what we should be doing at this point.  I'm just frustrated because we were so much better than this.

Scott shouldn't be coaching @ Alabama and everyone who reads this thread knows it.  Dude is done.

Judy enforced the higher academic standards to signees. We've had many that were fully qualified, but didn't pass the academic committee, then they signed with blue blood programs. Hell, UF, FSU & UM were signing kids that could barely talk let alone read...

We should lose that requirement, for sure.  I don't recall us having this kind of standard during Betty's watch, and we were better off.

I for one would hate to see our best players leave. I don’t think they dislike USF, but I’m sure they dislike losing. They only get so many years in college, they don’t have time to wait around to see what happens. 

I would hate it, too.  Find a coach they can believe in.  This one sucks.

Those players are going to defect no matter if you fire him now, or 3 weeks from now. If we retain Battie, Weaver, or Horne I’d be shocked. 

Who cares?  If you don't like USF, get out.

Aside from the Leavitt issue, she decided to try and strong arm ESPN as leader of the Big East and essentially killed the BE and our program by pissing off espn

Okay, I can see this.  She saw some people invest in her schools (Mass Comm to Zimmerman) and business (to Sykes) - perhaps getting ahead of herself in thinking USF would be a top tier institution?  

I respect her for thinking that could be our destiny.

I can get behind this.  Betty > Judy for sure, IMO.  I don't know how Judy ran the place because I graduated under Betty's watch and I know she was PRO football and whatever it took to win.  I didn't realize a president has so much influence on the team...  But it makes sense.  This leadership needs to see that "good people" aren't going to drive this football team.  We need heart, hustle, and hard work to make this team better.

What are you suggesting?  Status quo or another coach?

Get rid of this guy before Monday.  Need the team to gel with the next interim head coach.

Jamey Chadwell from Coastal Carolina if we are getting an up and comer. Looking at third straight 10+ win season and we can double his salary.

Scott Frost if we are going a retread. Was a great offensive coordinator and turned UCF around in no time. Can recruit. He took his dream job and failed, but any retread we get has failed in one job.

I like Scott Frost.  Nebraska was a disaster and will always be one.  I'd take it if he's not demoralized from the Nebraska experience.

Why is Judy responsible for this mess?  I don't know what this thread refers to.

I was excited after the hire but I was lobbying for USF to hire Leavitt. Only reason I was excited was reading & hearing all this propaganda on how Scott was gonna be the next big thing in college football coaching. I fell for fake news media propaganda.

CJL shouldn't have been fired.  With that said, we're way over that.

I don't know what we need, but CJS wasn't it.  CJL could recruit players that needed a second chance.  We need a guy who can recruit and has tremendous heart.  A young guy, not from some prestigious program.  But a guy who can recruit and lead these young men to a promising future.

Ask yourself if this team is any better than the team that took the field in his first game against the Citadel.  

That team had heart and a coach that had heart.  The team may have heart (maybe) but the coach doesn't.

He IS the worst coach we've ever had.  If guy is flying back to Tampa on our dime, then I'd be disappointed.  Terrible.

Simply put worst head coach in USF history 

That's actually saying something!

Do we need to pass a hat for a collection to cover the buy out?

I sure as hell don't have big 10 or SEC money, so I guess we're stuck.

Lol what will make for some funny moments is if Brad would bring up all those giddy post regarding the hire.

I've given him a shot, but I'm done.  He's terriBULL.  Run him out.

All involved with this hire should be held accountable

I agree with this.  Anyone associated with this hire should be evaluated and possibly removed.  Program is embarrassing.  

Yup, coach sucks.  Period.

He's done.  Let him go, please.  Good guy, but not a head football coach.
