  1. I say less than 0, love Q as well however his future is overseas. If D Jones could not make a career in the NBA than Q has no chance.
  2. Agreed, can’t control the conference thing and I just try to ignore it, life is too short to bother with things mostly outside of our control. Once we got a taste of the expensive wine Big East it has been hard to choke down the box wine known as the AAC but fortunately I like to drink and will soldier through.
  3. There are only a handful of teams that realistically have a chance at a National Championship in the power 5 anyways. Does anyone believe Purdue, Iowa State, Vanderbilt, Boston College, Pitt etc. will ever be in the playoff. It will be Bama, Clemson, Ohio State, Michigan, Auburn, USC, FSU (w/o CWT.). UF, Washington and a handful of others that are big and rich. I love the recent scheduling and beating FSU, UM, Auburn etc is awesome but been there. I want a dam conference championship, many say it will mean nothing but that and a BCS bowl is really all that they play for and both of these would be big,
  4. Sun dome and practice fields were and you are correct. Is it too much to ask for a conference championship, somebody has to be to blame, skip, Woodard etc... easy to Monday morning Quarterback..,,just bitter I have spent the past 29 yrs rooting for a team with not one conf championship.
  5. He had the biggest a$$ and single handily won the UM game in 2008. The goal line stance he had with his submarine maneuver kept Miami out of the end zone on a 1st and goal from the one. Over a 3 game period USF beat Miami, Clemson and opened the next year with a win against the Irish. Wow life was good before the wheels came off the bus.
  6. She upgraded academics and research status to a level that many did not think was possible and I commend her for this. UCF took all comers and is a joke. I also agree that no matter who we had we were lucky to land the big east and were destined to land back where we probably always belonged after the realignment. My big beef is that we could have used our good fortune in the mid 2000’s and built some facilities to keep our sports program relevant, she was asleep at the wheel and never really understood the importance of a strong athletic program.
  7. I can’t argue, maybe it would go a long way in satisfying me, I don’t think we have won a conference championship in FB or hoops since the 89-90 sunbelt conference championship with Hakim Shahid, too Effing long.
  8. Got me hook line and sinker, I will start a thread saying I just landed a threesome with 2 super models, which is about as accurate as the headline.
  9. I would agree we can bring back fans and what Kelly has done recently is fantastic and will help tremendously. I am by no means throwing in the towel however to get back to a 2007 type season while regulated to purgatory in the G5 is unlikely. The difference in money will make it more and more difficult as each year passes. We need a conference championship and a BCS bowl badly, if we can do this it will go a long way in getting butts back in the seats.
  10. Yep, I went to Brandon high back in the day and we had as many students as Tulsa with only 3300 students. The Stadium is ancient, kind of cool peeing in the troughs, felt like I was in an episode of Mad Men. Old private school with plenty of oil money, can still attract players from Dallas, OKC, local, Houston and San Antonio/Austin that the bigs ignore. There university has more of a sunbelt feel, but they do get more out of less than most.
  11. 100 percent accurate, the fans in Tulsa and Dallas don’t want to see them either. There are more people that go to a local high school game here than went to either USF vs. Tulsa and USF vs. SMU over the past two years. The stadiums are old, the few fans are apathetic. I told my wife we are going to the Texas game next year and the Bama and Florida games in the future. Having traveled with me to many road games in the past, she then stated, I did not know USF was in the same league as them. I did not have a comeback.
  12. Very nice, the dump is my most important activity as well most days. Stay away from the early bird, you will be in bed before dark. Thanks for the info, getting Bama at home is big. Mike Kelly is earning his salary, impressive get.
  13. Thanks for making me feel young, did not know anyone that still gets a paper in print, Triple B it is either time for dinner or a nap.
  14. Yes, if you have met her in person she has the features of a clown due to many surgeries under the knife, her face does not move. She has been great for research, preeminence etc. however bad for athletics IMO. I am sure she is a nice lady however sports is everything (hence messaging about USF football in May) and with her salary and position she is fair game. I am sure she could care less what some guy on a message board says about her clown like features.
  15. It may be hard to discern however without sarcasm there really is no point to a message board. It is a tough sell to get donations for the IPF because it may be necessary but is not something most of us will ever use. The OCS will be a much easier but larger task. Judy can donate whatever she wants wherever she wants however I will still be one happy SOB when she finally hits the exits.
  16. Yes I will do my part, thanks for pointing that out
  17. Friscobull will take this one, the stadium is 2 miles from my house and is where the MLS team plays({FCDallas). Fastest growing city in the nation and a suburb of Dallas, SMU is in Dallas. A great place to live, cowboys HQ is here, Miltf Meca, however ****** bowl and the weather in December is cold and rainy. I would rather buy a plane ticket than pay a $7 Uber for these reasons.
  18. This old timer would rather play the big boys getting them at home provides validation as well even in a 2 for 1. It was nice playing Kentucky Wesleyan and Liberty at the time but having the Tide come to Tampa shows how far the program has come and I can’t help that every time i see this that I thank our inaugural coach and the 75k salary he made working out of the 3 trailers, god bless Jim and sorry for the way you were treated.
  19. Home and away makes no sense, want no part of App state or Troy, nothing to gain, they are still viewed as a great FCS team, risk and return not worth it. Army wears you down with the option and still not viewed as a quality win. WVU and IA state future bottom feeders in the big 12, with no great attraction. 2 for 1’s not good either, too much similar regional talent just superior, an upset would be incredibly difficult. Need to focus on the big 10, different style of play that may suit us if we ever figure out how to stop the run.
  20. I first want to say that I love Q like everyone else, and if you think I inferred that he was the goat of that game then you are mistaken. He was awesome however he routinely missed easy throws throughout the season and up 13 going into the 4th would have made a huge if not the difference in the game. If he had an NFL arm he would be a QB in the NFL, simple as that. Don’t give me the size issue as the reason, he was wildly inaccurate at times. Most of his big throws were long passes and not precision outs, and placement balls, just watch his numerous highlights.
  21. good stuff, I still wake up in cold sweats thinking of all the hours lost watching CWT and his inept power scheme for those 2 years. All kinds of movement before the snap resulting in a 3 and out over and over and over
  22. C'mon Q did not have an NFL arm, maybe he could throw a duck a long way and win a punt pass and kick event however he lacked the accuracy necessary to even play QB in Canada and could never throw the deep out. USF beats UCF 2 years ago in Orlando if he hits Mitchell over the middle on an easy throw to go up 13 late (threw it 10 yards over his head). These 2 will be more accurate than Q ever was or KB will find another option.
  23. Thrilled to see the deranged clown go, need more emphasis on the athletic program and this was never going to happen under her leadership.
  24. Way too early, Q is a legendary QB that could not pass with accuracy but was elusive and the best athlete on the field most of the time. The other guys are unknown but I will guarantee a few things, they have stronger arms and will pass with more accuracy however will not be as elusive and are not as athletic, who will be better lays in KB's hands, who knows.
