  1. The great thing about this season and these young coaches coming in and winning right away is that it defeats the false premise that its hard to win at USF, and that a turn around is a multi year preposition. From this day forward we should only expect playoffs, NCAAT, bowl games, conference championships and winning seasons.
  2. What makes all this exciting is that (knocking on wood) a lot of players should be returning for next season in both football and basketball, so hopefully we will see some sustained success. Great year, and hopefully we can build on it.
  3. Yes, while disappointing its not a home game at the same time we are playing a team that finished in the bottom half of their conference. By all means this should be seen as a favorable matchup for us. Lets just go out and win this one, and perhaps send a message to the Big 12 that we might add value to the league next time when they add teams.
  4. I think at the very least we deserved to host this game. The way the NIT is set up is non sensical to me.
  5. Probably comes down to their huge win against Arizona and big win against TAMU. Also It doesn't hurt that they came in the season ranked after a Final Four appearance, and in the early part of the season showed that they are a top team. Personally have no problem with FAU making it. Just wish we would get more respect for our win against them, and coming in first in a decent AAC. At the same time we lost two of our last three games and did not impress early in the season. Lets learn from it and do better next year.
  6. It pains me to not see USF on this board, but still cant believe my second school Stetson is on there. I hope UAB and FAU do well so our conference gets more respect. Next year will be our year.
  7. No doubt that when we look back this will be viewed as a successful season.
  8. Probably winning 75 percent of our OOC games plus a win against a top 25 Power 5 team would have sealed it for us.
  9. Personally I don't feel aggrieved. Do we deserve a spot. Yes! But other teams can probably make that case as well. However, I understand that we did not get in due to our poor start, weak OOC, and the fact that we lost two of our last three games, including the last one with double digits. It is what it is. Next year we can hopefully do better. Lets just focus on the NIT
  10. I would say that with 24 wins and a probable NIT birth, plus a bowl win in football plenty has changed compared to the last few years. Furthermore, the foundation has been set for even more success next year.
  11. Disappointing, but excited about our prospects next year. Hopefully most players come back, and we are able to add a few pieces to get even better. Our NCAAT birth was lost early season during our OOC schedule. Hopefully next year we can have a better start with a stronger OOC schedule. Winning these end of season tournaments are never easy, that is why they call it March Madness. Hopefully we can have a tournament lock next year before the AAC tournament but yes this one stings.
  12. Yea, I 100 percent agree. The only way they could do it in this way is if they added more teams to the NCAAT set up by adding an extra round. But I would not be in favor of that since that would make earning a bid less special.
