  1. If any other BCS team played a schedule like this we'd be jumping all over them

    Auburn's 2004 non-conference schedule - Louisiana-Monroe, The Citadel and Louisiana Tech (all at home)

    Penn State's 2005 non-conference schedule - USF, Cincinnati and Central Michigan (all at home)

    UConn's 2006 non-conference schedule - Rhode Island, Wake Forest, Army, Navy (all at home) plus at Indiana

    Virginia Tech's 2006 non-conference schedule - Northeastern, Cincinnati, Southern Miss and Kent State (all at home)

    NC State's 2006 non-conference schedule - Appalachian State, Akron, East Carolina (all at home) plus at Southern Miss

    The first two went to BCS bowl games, and the latter three are all upcoming and are all worse than our current non-conference slate.  Start jumping.

  2. Personally, I'd like to see Carlton Hill played in the same manner as Brian Fisher.  He could take some direct snaps or run the occasional option like Fisher would do, has an arm capable of passing in some gadget plays and could serve as a great receiver, all while Grothe was on the field at the same time.  Anybody remember when we actually had an imaginative offense?

  3. What's that suppose to mean Joe?  Learning disabilities are legit arguments, and we've brought kids in before with learning disabilities- hell UF brought in many kids like Mike Mangold who had learning disabilities.  First, it must be a documented disability before the NCAA will allow it, so there isn't any hanky panky going on.  Second, it's not something someone can use to skate kids into school.  All state schools have special services and programs for learning disabilities.  It's a law.

    Not that I don't disagree with you, but I think this is now being abused by many.  Here's one article that discusses it:

    Some folks are claiming learning disabilities to improve their chances of success to either get into college or even graduate schools.  I'd rather not have a physician who needed double time on his MCAT's for any reason...

  4. Great trivia question.  Using just the national championship in basketball and either the coaches or the AP poll for football, here are the teams that won both:

    Stanford (football 1926, basketball 1942)

    Cal (football 1920, basketball 1959)

    Ohio State (football 1942, 54, 57, 68, 2002, basketball 1960)

    UCLA (football 1954, basketball 1964, 65, 67-73, 75, 95)

    Michigan State (football 1952, 65, basketball 1979, 2000)

    Michigan (football 1901, 02, 32, 33, 48, 97, basketball 1989)

    Maryland (football 1953, basketball 2002)

    Syracuse (football 1959, basketball 2003)

    Fl*rida (football 1996, basketball 2006)

    Kind of interesting that the only team to win multiple titles in both football and basketball is Michigan State.  I doubt many would pull that one in a bar bet...

  5. Some interesting Seth numbers:

    Record at Virginia Tech: 45-44 (0.506)

    Record at USF: 108-100 (0.519)

    Record at Long Beach State: 105-70 (0.600)

    Career record: 258-214 (0.546)

    Career record in NCAA tournament over 16 years: 0-2

    Career record in NIT over 16 years: 1-4

    One more interesting bit of trivia - Long Beach State suffered 3 consecutive losing seasons immediately after Seth left before winning 24 games in the fourth year.

  6. That is without the lamest thing I have ever heard.  You are censoring people.  I have not posted anything that is unbecoming or distasteful.  You are simply erasing my posts because you don't like what I say.  

    You get your wish, I will no longer post and tell everyone I am friends with to leave this site.  

    That is the lamest thing I have ever seen.

    I can't believe you would erase someones post.

    Do we complain we have to read constant nonsense about how everyone hates rod smith.?  Half the posts that people put on this board, aren't related to the topic.  And your boys fill this place up with constant non-sense.  Ridiculous that you would erase someones post.  You act like we are cussing.  Mac is 6-14 and you are sick of hearing us talk about it.  I think that is really pathetic.  A true fan would understand our contempt for this program.

    Good luck buddy.

    You're certainly welcome to start your own board if you think you can do better...

  7. This is the response to my email from the individual who wrote the questionnaire.

    ...I understand that you're very proud of USF, but I mean like, don't let something like a little question on a half-serious questionnaire faze you.  ...I just did it.  I mean like, why not?  ...and it's "cess", not "cest" pool  '

    It's great that a person who actually types "like" in his written correspondence as if he were carrying on a conversation with a teenager sees fit to correct a spelling error.

  8. Oh and by the way USFFAN, it's too bad when you call out a fellow BULL and send him to Hell. You better watch who you are condemning. You may be cursing yourself. But I forgive you!    Rev. Mitchell Rebenstorf   better known as "The Reaper."  

    PS. And to clarify my statement, it was taken in contrast from a friend who quoted the same thing to me AFTER he moved from Cali. No intention was made saying ALL parents are like that in Cali. I am sure there are lots who would consider this not acceptible also.

    I don't care whether you're a reverend, an imam or a person who thinks he's the next coming of the messiah.  In writing:

    It may be accepted in California, where parents don't give a crap about their kids, (IE here's a $20 kid, now get out of my hair!).

    you effectively called me, a parent of a boy and a girl in California, a pretty horrible parent.  That's like accusing every teacher in Tampa of being a pedophile or every professor at USF of being a terrorist.  If you think I'm a terrible parent just because I live in California, then you can have fun playing poker with Beelzebub for all eternity.

    PS - I hear bad things said about groups all the time.  If I repeat them, it makes me just as wrong as the person who said them to me.  

  9. Remember that Volleyball coach back in 2001 or 02.  The lady who took us to an NCAA tourny like every year she was here, but got sacked because the were paying her to much money?

    Remember how she sued the university, named Barbara Sparks McGlinchey as her prime problem.

    The lady got totally screwed.  Things weren't always merry over there in AD land.  Griffin was accused of racist undertones surround our Girls BB program.

    None of programs were in very good shape, our softball coach threatened to leave eventhough he coached arguably our best program.  

    Woolard and Leavitt were sent from god.  Eventhough Griffin hired Leavitt, Griffin was a bum.

    Lee Roy was very good at raising money.  This university will have a dynamite BB program and and a awesome Football program, it is only a matter of time.  But it wasn't always peaches and cream over there.

    Woolard and CJL will lead us to the promise land.  

    I don't know if you're just trolling for responses, but Perri Hankins was not fired because they were paying her too much money.  If that were the case we'd have fired Eddie Cardieri years ago.  Hankins was definitely fired for cause.  It was unfortunate, too, because she really did have the volleyball team doing well.
