I always have because anger and anonymity online creates tough guys that ruin civil conversation.  With that, I’ll ask you again, to stop with your routine insults.  When your words insult others, your presence is no longer of value.  It’s that simple.  

I already stated it wasn't an insult, but a general statement.   That would of been a good time to acknowledge the misunderstanding.  Instead you chose to insult me.   I'm disappointed in the hypocrisy.

So someone makes a positive comments about the difference in the players over two coaches and your response is:

“The mantra of losers.“

So who was that meant to insult or compliment?

 

It was a general comment Brad just like I said above.   Period.  It wasn't meant to insult or compliment anyone.

Are you really going to micromanage how people post on the board now

Why did LSU fire Ed Orgeron? Tigers make surprising coaching change two years after championship

Here's what we know about the situation between LSU and Ed Orgeron and what led to their separation agreement.

That’s a poor response.  I don’t get your need to insult others.  Is that just you or the anonymity of the internet that brings it out?

Many would agree that what he said is true comparing player attitudes. 

It has nothing to do with a loser’s mentality.  

Stick to adding value, not insults.  

There was nothing insulting in my post.  

It wasn't a dig at the players or anyone.  Just a general statement.   I haven't criticized a single player on here, hell most of my comments  made are general in nature in regards of where we are and they have all been directed at the coaching.    "Wait for next year" is a losing mentality.  "We're just a play away" is the same thing at this point.   Just excuses for not getting the job done when it should be done.

We have enough talent to win games in the aac just not enough to overcome poor coaching and win FBS games

If your team can't get 1 yard on a play, then they don't deserve to win. 

Truth which is why I haven't dwelled on that particular play call.   This is a cumulative poor coaching effort

Yes, of course we are unhappy with the coaches.  These players did not quit and most of them play up to their talent level which is way higher then I could ever play.  Yes Jimmy Horns fumble was brutal but he is a true freshman, Curry’s penalty was abysmal as well, the men are only as good as their leader.  I had no problem with taking a knee at the end of the half, it was the right play but overall our coaching sucked, we had better athletes yesterday. 

This is correct.  there was not a large difference in athletes on those teams and tulsa did not look 40 spots better than us per rankings.   We are poorly coached/prepared for whatever reason.   We can only hope that all of this frustration leads to success in the future

In the last few years, we needed a quarterback who could teleport or fly. A QB definitely needs legs at USF with what we have.

Every winning team we have had has been led by a QB that could make things happen with their legs

This team has more fight and potential in them.  They are just a decision or play away from winning a few of these games.

The mantra of losers.

But again, I think the posters point was (and i believe he confirmed this above) that since CJS is looking like a bum of a hire we could have saved some dollars and just stuck with CCS.  Honestly, if we fired CJS today (we won't/shouldn't) are really any better off.  Would a new coach be able to step in and win right away.  Win more than CJS ... yes, but I mean really compete

6 games in to the 2nd year of the CJS/Doogie Howser offense and the Bulls have 1 passing TD. To put it in perspective, 1-5 Navy has 2

 

 

 

No bueno

Which came from his senior year when he had a drop in passing. Was there something more to it? I don’t know. But I’m a data guy and would guess there was and the young man wanted to win.

Well if he wants to win here, he better be able to run the ball some

I stunningly saw in one of the other threads that there were suggestions we should have just kept CCS ......?? Extended losing apparently lobotomizes some fans ...

Wow that is the most bizarre take I have read.  We need some wins like now.

I believe I read it as a "we might as well have" stayed with CCS

Why not? We will pay you millions but if you suck, go kick dirt. I imagine this is normal in a lot of corporations hiring people at that salary level.

28% running is pretty much a running qb 

That's kind of what I was thinking.  We're not talking about running the option

 That 80 yd TD drive everything looked fine. Same OC there unless he was on a coffee break.

Come on man.   I could easily say the defense looked fine when it was forcing 3 turnovers and holding them to 1 TD in the first 29 minutes of the game.   Same DC

Why burn a timeout and 4th and short of you are going to run the exact same play ? Why not go hurry up and not let the defense get set if you plan on running the same play? I think they call qb sneak and have the hb push him forward . The defense did their job until the end , but the offense was flat the 2nd half. We got move the balls. Timmy had a bad day passing and we were running decent.  Why not run more and throw less or do more pa screens or slants  . I feel the players gave their best but the coaches failed them. 

He's indecisive.   I've said that before so he calls timeout, they go back and forth and decide to do the same thing again and hope it works.  Unfortunately it didn't. 

The defense sucked.  They did get a pick six, but they were pushed around all day long.

I'm sure this was mentioned but something tells me CJS will not be faking any field goals moving forward. That 3 points proved very valuable (granted the kick was made).

Play was good just too long (4th and 12) and that slow kicker got run down

33 minutes ago, CousinRicky said:

Yep. A 99 yard drive allowed isn't on the OC.

No, but 7 points in the 2nd half could be and 14 of those 31  were from ST and the defense

There was some dumpy alternative music dance club not to far away from campus back in the 90's.  I do not remember the name of that place.  I met a girl at that place and we dated while I was at USF.

Upon further review (watching the 2nd half finally) I have a hard time blaming the game on the OC.  We gave up a 99 yard drive with an 11 point lead.  And, BTW, our punter isn't all that good. 

There's blame to go around, but the defense is awful and it isn't just "lack of talent"

On the good side, he was looking downfield to make plays usually while on the run.  It didn't look like it was just pull it down and take off all the time

I think the reasons for the OCS have been discussed and not sure W/L's have been mentioned.   Seriously, we should consider Corbett.  Maybe they could just hand out personalized fans to each guest

Meant to look you up today during the game, but got caught up talking to some old friends and didn't make it happen.  Maybe next weekend if I can make it to the game.   Wouldn't mind meeting up with @NewEnglandBullas well.

Monday was Peabodys $5 liquor pitchers and $1 shots on the hour, Wednesday was Green Iguana $1 drink night (Ybor or Westshore, Anderson Rd came later) Thursdays was Ybor hanging at the rooftop at Prana, Amphitheater, Castle or Orpheum, Friday’s were SoHo - start with $10 happy hour at MacDintons and then go to Whiskey Park (I did bottle service/barbacking there in ‘05), Saturdays were reserved for Banana Joe’s/Margarita Mommas/Howl at the Moon in channelside and Sunday’s were reserved for the pool at Campus Lodge.

Throw in Tia’s and original World of Beer in Weschase for good measure.

 

Lot of these were in my mid to late 20's ... sounds like you were just behind me.  We preferred Jellyrolls to Howl at the Moon though

The Greenery (spelling?) was a complete dive. Used to have a beer or two with Professor Levy from the political science department. 

I had that guy

Sat with some friends that I used to tailgate with and sit with at every game ... or at least try since my tickets back in the day weren't with them and many games we couldn't just sit with them.  Well today there were plenty of seats around them and have been for the last several years.    Way back when there were 25-30 people sitting there together (and we'd have even more at the tail gate).   Some dropped off just in general due to attrition.  But now there are 8-10 still around.  I only saw 4 of them today and 3 barely.  The rest were in the A/C the rest of the time along with those 3 because "it was too hot to watch this ****".  They told me this was it.  They've been season ticket holders since the beginning or **** near and the last 8-10 are done after this year.  "Can't justify coming out each week to watch bad football against bad teams".  So they plan to go to a couple of games a year "probably" with single game tickets.

This is what the administration did when they fired CJL and decided to minimize the football program while using it to raise millions for the university with minimal reinvestment into the program itself.   We might as well move into Corbett .. seriously
