A nice Hoppy beer, perhaps a Jayden Reid IPA. They can even do a nod to Coach Golesh roots and do a Golesh Russian Imperial Stout. Lots of fun to be had.

For the Brewing Arts, saying this completely obviously to the program, but I would imagine they focus on small batch brewing. Having a place to "dispose" of the beer will be a great opportunity to modify recipes from small to large batches. Win Win for everyone. A nice Golden Bull Lager, or a South Florida Weisse, or even a Judy Genshaft Gose, for those still salty about her tenure.

Lots of discussion lately on how this is ruining college sports and not whats best for college sports. But whats best for the college athlete? I see the change being made that all college athletes will be employees of the NCAA and receive a base salary. With that, legally they will be able to fold in employment contracts and restrictions, mimicking what we saw before. Players will still be able to receive NIL money but will have restrictions on transferring, due to the employment contract.

If I recall correctly, he was the athlete that joined practice and blocked a couple of field goals in a row. CJS was excited how a basketball player with zero football experience could walk on like that and block field goals...I was saying to myself, what does it say about the football team when a basketball player can just walk onto the field and start blocking field goals...

We also may not have become an AAU university. There is only so much money and resources.

It is well known that Judy prioritized academics. She is the one that set the foundation for USF joining the AAU. Part of me does have to chuckle...faulting a college president for prioritizing academics over football...Go bulls!

End of the day, what makes a stadium unique is the experience of the fans and the product on the field. I can't wait to see the seats empty out as an avalanche of fans storm the field after a big win. Memories and experiences are going to be made.

He wrote, "I have decided to Declare for the 2024 NBA Draft! I will also be entering my name into the transfer portal, keeping my remaining year of eligibility" Anyone with a little more insight on this that can chime in? I don't believe this is an option for football, is this just an option for basketball? Ability to declare for the draft and keep your college eligibility, if you enter the portal while doing so?

I can speak to the sports accounting. A fellow work colleague has a few clients who are, coaches, and trainers for MLB teams. To say it's tedious is an understatement. Florida does not have a state income tax, but other states do. So when a Florida base team plays in a state that has a state income tax, the portion of the salary that was earned by playing in that state for "x" amount of days does qualify for that state's income tax. But with that said, there's one plus for USF, no state income tax on NIL deals

We are at the point where we are seeing the big swings in the pendulum in both directions. One swing was the years the NCAA had total control of players, money, etc...Now it has swung with the NIL and players having some power with the ability to transfer. It will find its equilibrium... eventually...First hurdle, are they student-athletes or employees? With professional sports, they don't sign every player to "year-to-year" agreements or contracts like they do in college. As a result, teams have stability and a general idea of when athletes will be moving on.

Figured it out. Tickets are not showing on TicketMaster, they are in the "my tickets" section of the USF app.

Got three tickets, however they are not showing up in my upcoming events and the link to request tickets is now having technically difficulties. Did snag a screen shot of the confirmation before navigating out.

I've been seeing that all over social media as well. Up until yesterday, I thought I missed the opportunity to request tickets. Out of curiosity, did season ticket holders get first dibs at tickets or are there not any tickets in circulation yet to sell?

First time I brought my 5 year old to a game I pointed to Pryor and told my son "look, thats you out on the court". My little guy is projected to be roughly the same height as Pryor is, bleached blonde hair, etc..Every time he's watching the game, first thing he says is "daddy, look, it's me" when he sees Pryor. He is playing tee ball now, never picked up a basketball but tells everyone that basketball is his favorite sport. Pryor giving hope for all the awkwardly tall kids out there

Tradition and history. Thats the tangible aspect that can not be built into the first on campus stadium for a football program that is less then 30 years old. This is going to take time, it will come with wins and losses. Could have , should have, would have, is always a fun discussion that leads to nothing, as we will never know what could have happened. What the nation is seeing is a University that is making an investment in football, just like every other university with a power program once did themselves. This stadium is being built on the grounds where a trailer stood that held the coaches office...USF will be playing catchup for some time, thats what happens when you have a 27 year old program. Every program and stadium had to start somewhere. Take a look at what ben hill griffin stadium, doak campbell stadium first looked like when they opened. When you look go to those stadiums now, you can feel the history and its about darn time USF starts making their own history.

They were a great host crowd. Doing shots of moonshine with the locals, making sure we had a place to stay, and invites to parties after the game. The tone did change slightly after we won but overall they were still great.

Without getting into the weeds of the discussion on the OCS stadium. I have enjoyed so much brining my son to the basketball games this year on campus. Yes, winning is huge, but he drives by "daddy's school" multiple times per week. Going on campus is special for him. It starts the foundation of being a bull at an early age that will stick outside of winning and losing. Bringing him to his first basketball game this year and having him see photo/banner of me at the sun dome durning my time at USF is priceless. We are looking forward to a few baseball games this season as well, which I promise him I wouldn't heckle at

USF may become the Tampa Bay Rays of NCAA Football. Small market team that has to find and develop talent. You will have them for "x" amount of years before they hit free agency or transfer. Both teams cant compete with the big stars in free agency or recruitment. USF may become a farm team for other programs, but at the same time, we are getting talent, developing talent and able to compete.

We started to see pushback from Cable Providers as well. That was the main sticking point between Charter Spectrum and Disney. Charter was upset that they were essentially subsidizing cable networks to develop their streaming platforms, such as Disney, and their customers not having access to the streaming content. As part of the new deal " Spectrum TV Select customers will have access to the ad-supported tier for Disney+, while Spectrum TV Select Plus customers will also gain access to ESPN Plus—and (eventually) the standalone ESPN streaming service that Disney has been planning". It's hard keeping track of what games I can watch and where...and let's not forget the occasional "blackout". I forgot which game it was from a couple of years ago but I was ready to watch USF Football on ESPN Plus, only to find out it was on Balley Sports and blacked out on ESPN PLus "for local markets". Hopefully, we will start to see an integrated system. Another factor will be internet and cell phone providers offering free services. For example, with T-Mobile I currently have MLB/MLS network, Netflix, and soon Hulu "with adds" for free. O brave new world. Disney and Spectrum reach a new deal that includes Disney+ and ESPN subscriptions WWW.INSIDERINTELLIGENCE.COM Disney and Charter’s carriage fee clash is a landmark moment: A new deal includes Disney+ and ESPN subscriptions for the linear TV service’s customers.

OCS should be a great anchor point for restaurants and bars in the community. Zydeco opening up in MOSI is a major plus and great timing for them. I hope to see more breweries follow but it's a pretty expensive area for them. I know we have been hearing this for a while but the redevelopment of University Mall into "UpTown" should be a great addition. The mixture of professional space, medical facilities, and research labs along with entertainment areas, restaurants, and some nightlife...we have ample opportunities.
