  1. Without Jim, none of this would be here, we would be the same school that didn't have a football program for the 1st 41 yrs in existence. Now it would be 63 yrs to present day.
  2. The reason I was a day 3 poster is because I became excited at the thought that the administration was going to try to fix the trainwreck that we turned into. I think all you have to do is look at the fact that we never built anything, such as an IPF back when we were winning consistently and filling RayJay. CJL took UCF off the schedule because they were not good enough. Now where are we 10 years later. Paying xCCS a huge buyout and heading towards the basement of the AAC. The facts should come out and if the CJL stuff was all hype, then most of us won't feel like we did in 2010 all over again.
  3. Below are the current Board of Trustees Jordan B. Zimmerman, ChairLeslie Muma, Vice ChairMichael CarrereBritney DeasStephanie E. GoforthMichael E. GriffinOscar HortonDeanna MichaelHarold W. MullisJohn B. RamilByron E. ShinnCharles TokarzNancy H. Watkins
  4. I will be completely turned away if this is true because it will mean that CJL was MKs 1st choice and that the BOT decided they wouldn't support the choice of their AD. That would be even more dysfunctional than I thought we already had become.
  5. I am hearing that a deal was done with CJL and the board of trustees did not approve the deal. Can someone make sure that a question is asked of the university tomorrow to confirm or deny this???
  6. It worries me too. If he is such an up and comer, wouldn't he have been hired by Missouri or another p5 school. There have been many misses on hires from great programs. Their last OC that got hired away was Chad Morris and that didn't work out very well. If it comes out that the board of trustees nixed Leavitt, I will have no trust in the program.
  7. Sorry, but anyone can recruit for the top 5 colleges in the country. It is just a matter of do they want to go to Clemson or Ohio State or Alabama...how is he going to convince any players to come to a non P5 school that are any better than ones that already come here. I am very worried about how this is all going to work out. I hope for the best, but I am realistic.
  8. That would be the saving grace to all of this...give him the DC job and when Scott leaves in 2 years, CJL can elevate to HC...one can dream, right?
  9. I guess if they did hire Jeff Scott, it could be a homerun in the short run, but if he wins, he leaves and we are right back where we started and if he doesn't win, it will be a dumpster fire....because he isn't going to come cheap and we are still paying Strong's 5mil a yr contract...so why would Scott sign here for WAY less than Strong was making???? This just doesn't make sense economically...let's consider supply and demand...if Scott is in demand, why wouldn't power5 teams be able to pay him way more money than us???
  10. Agreed...it is all just speculation until an official media release by Kelly
  11. Could be because he didn't get the Mizzou job...why wouldn't he still want a P5 job over ours???
  12. We will see...I am afraid that he will be in for a tough job to sell the fans...more empty seats at RayJay
  13. Agreed with Drinkwitz because that is an actual reported story. It was said on twitter that Jeff Scott had interviewed with Missouri, it hasn't said anything about him actually interviewing with USF, just peoples thoughts so far.
  14. Yes, to Missouri...why would he take USF over a P5 job...USF is not P5 and is not going to land one of the top coordinators from a team that has won mulitple national championships...pipe dream
  15. I imagine that tomorrow we will hear something out of Michael Kelly...any direction they go, I believe it has to be presented correctly to help to win back the fanbase. The ultimate intermediate goal for Kelly is to get money to get the IPF done. I am not sure a random hiring is going to accomplish this. Has to be a big splash and I just don't see too many other splashes that would be as big as Leavitt.
  16. I have been following this all 24/7. I don't see any of it except for Joey and the TDS guys creating it. I trust Grothe more that the other fools.
  17. I guess my question would be do you really think Grothe is completely out of the know and is just making things up? I really can't believe he would have any reason to do that.
  18. Joey is just guessing and has no factual knowledge at this point. Did Joey meet with MK or is it just the case that he is speculating. Thebullspen forum has more factual info than he does at this point.
  19. Reality check for everyone that thinks USF is the most desired job in the country. Times have changed. This isn't 2010 when we were the up and coming hot program that had tie-ins to the BCS and coaches would have loved to coach the Bulls. We are a program that has regressed, no IPF, no OCS, nothing. We aren't getting a big name coordinator from the P5. At this stage CJL is the right/best person available that would have mutual interest and can repair the huge amount of damage that has been done. Embrace it as reality, otherwise if we take a chance on someone who isn't qualified, the football program will cease to exist.
  20. So, what do we assume they mean by saying 'this could end up being a footnote?'
  21. At the end of the day, if we don't hire him, someone else will because they know he is plenty qualified and will be a difference maker wherever he goes. We would be crazy to not bring him back. If we don't Colorado State or Fresno State or FAU and maybe even Missouri will hire him.
