The schools that got promoted had a lot longer than a 10 year head start ....

I could be mistaken, but I don't think much of what the knits did before we were around contributed to their selection over us

You sirs are both correct

Let's see.  No OCS, seats are green not red. Two options:

Time for the calls to go independent in football.  

Switch the campuses so we'd be playing at an OCS with the proper colored seats.

Off topic sorta. A high school classmate of mine went to FSU for football, had redshirted and then switched to Temple. I lived 30 miles outside of Phila and learned then that Temple had football.

Temple has a football team?

Most importantly, he had a full off week to rest his hamstring injury that has been nagging him all season. I hope the coaching staff has cooked up some more designed runs and tweaked the scheme to further play to Timmy's strengths. Also, I hope that they realize that we can't stop anyone on defense and 4th and 5 from the opponents 35 yard line is a time to go for it and not punt. 

So now it has been injured the whole season?  

We probably shouldn't even play defense anymore.  Maybe just give them the 7 points and take the ball right back after we score ...... 

I might have to stop by for that.   First half at least

Sugar Shane will get the nod for game 1 with fellow rookie Shane Baz going in game 2.

I always like when I go on an away trip and the people are cool.  It's good to chip in.  I will say the "best Cuban food" is a total hornet's nest of debate, but I will agree on the assessments so far.

If he's coming from Cinncy, any Cuban food will be the "best"

It wasn't

What's not to love about smashing watermelons or any fruit for that matter?

Idk I’m at hattricks I believe it to be the normal Heinz I have expected my whole life.

Second thought, might be Hunt's but either way it is at Hooters and it is hot garbage.  Totally ruins the curly fry experience

Is that the new high fructose Heinz Ketchup they serve at Hooters now-a-days?  That stuff is straight garbage

Dancing in the seats: The 15 best stadium songs in college and pro sports, ranked

One of the great things about sports is the way a fan base can embrace a song as its own and turn it into an essential part of the game experience.

 

I was at Kentucky this past weekend.  They love them some Waka Flaka.  Maybe we could play some Nick Carter or Mel Tillis.  Maybe smash some watermelons ala Gallagher?

The only person I’ve ever met irl or on the internet that left a fandom because of the fans is @Gatorbull325. I don’t think that’s a pervasive thing.

It's not.  They may leave the Bullspen, which isn't a good thing for us, the site, or Brad, but they aren't leaving fandom because of negative fans

What if the whiners drive away fans that don't whine, and those fans cease to be Bulls fans anymore because they can't stand the whining?  

Then they weren't really fans

FWIW, in 2017 and 2018, which I assume most would call winning years, we averaged 31K and 38K, respectively.

I think that is very good for a G5 program.  And unfortunately that 2018 finished poorly (that was the losing finish I believe) and it's been downhill from there

Agreed. At the end of the day he is supporting one of his fellow colleges which I have no problem with. But taking on people in the Twiterverse should be hard pass. 

So wait?  You guys actually think a coach should be calling out fans in the midst of 2 years without a W against an FBS team and our 4th straight crappy season.

I hope and think our 2nd half of the season should be better, but surely no one should blame fans for being upset.  And to tell them to shut up and pay your money doesn't seem like the best play for a coach.

Well, I guess…I think the devil is in the details here. How do we define the “fans are coming out?” There always seems to be a stipulation with our fan base: no Thursday night games, no 12:00 games, must have good competition, etc. Is the number 30,000? 40,000? 50,000? I guess if we go with the 30,000 you are probably correct. 

30k for a G5 team is definitely coming out.  But it's been even higher in the past.

Who cares?  Is the position a real position?  He feels comfortable having his dad around for advice.  He's been in the game for a long time.  If USF is willing to pay him for it.... good on  him.

I am not convinced that people will come out in droves even if we are winning. There are so many factors that come into play (much of which has already been discussed ad nauseam)

Why?  They have in the past

Shut up Jose
