  1. I wonder if he prefers Tampa or Miami Cuban sandwiches? Seriously, though, I don't think I can even imagine USF women's hoops without Jose at the helm. Hope we don't lose him to the fighting Ibis.
  2. I agree. The fact that every small and mid-major D1 school can dream of a Cinderella run in a sport that only needs 4 or 5 great players to win it all is what makes this tournament so amazing from a fan and money-making perspective.
  3. In their attempt to squeeze more and more out of it, these conferences are going to whip the golden goose to death.
  4. Especially in a packed house. The teams seem very evenly matched statistically. Our Bulls will take care of business at home!
  5. Same building. Same extra percentage. I'm one of those old guys for whom it will always be the Sundome. I do recognize that it has a corporate sponsor though. And I do enjoy their beverages occasionally.
  6. These predictions seem about as reliable as a relationship with Taylor Swift.
  7. Also, when the PAC12 fell apart it was something that seemed impossible. I'm sure the ACC will learn from the PAC12's mistakes and will take steps to avoid the same fate, such as adding USF and others mentioned previously in this thread.
  8. You are not crazy. Maybe a bit masochistic, but not crazy. I do the same thing.
  9. After AAC tourney loss, Charlotte wants to keep playing - The Charlotte Post WWW.THECHARLOTTEPOST.COM 49ers would accept NIT berth following ouster by Temple Not that it makes us feel any better, but our old friends over at Charlotte would trade places with us in a second. 49ers’ head coach Aaron Fearne said... “[The NIT] is another opportunity for the guys to play and grow. Last year we played in the [College Basketball Invitational] and that was an awesome experience. Playing postseason basketball is generally very physical and competitive. You learn to perform under pressure to keep moving on because if you don’t, you’re done.” "Charlotte guard Lu’Cye Patterson is hoping to play in another postseason tournament for the 49ers’ seniors. Any postseason tournament, whether it be the NIT or NCAA tournament are big tournaments,” he said. “So, I am down to play, especially for the senior guys like Robert [Braswell] and Jackson [Threadgill]. I wouldn’t want this to be the last time they go out wearing a Niners jersey. So, whatever presents itself, the NIT or anything would be good momentum going into next season. I’m down to play if that opportunity presents itself.”
  10. I didn't say I was excited to be in the NIT. I am, however, excited that I get to see this team play more games. Of course, I'm disappointed about missing out on the big tournament, but since that didn't happen, all we have left is the reality of the games USF does get to play. I plan to thoroughly enjoy every game left.
  11. So by that logic, if we can't win the NCAA championship, no other championship is worth pursuing? I will remember (and most USF fans will remember) if we win the NIT, and that's all I care about.
  12. So, why wouldn't a NIT Championship matter? It's not a JV trophy at all. There are some really great teams in that bracket. Not the least of which is our Bulls.
  13. Serious question... Why would any school opt out of the NIT? I can think of legitimate reasons, but if it's only because they are butt-hurt for getting left out of the NCAAs, then I am embarrassed for them. It's another chance to keep competing.
  14. I will be shocked if this team declines the inevitable NIT invitation. Declining the chance to keep playing and growing would not even come close to matching the messaging we've been hearing all season from the program.
  15. Wilson hits back-to-back threes. Nice! And another one. Three for her in the first half.
  16. I'd rather the streak end in this probably meaningless game than in the AAC tournament.
  17. Yup. They would destroy each other I guess.
  18. Plus, if they were to play each other, someone on TBP could post, "USF will destroy us!".
