  1. Let's face it, he could have picked any number of negative things to mention about our University and he didn't (we all know what they are).  He mentioned the fact that we were #2 in the Nation at one point which a lot of people probably forgot about.  If nothing else we should thank him for reminding people about the best things that this program has ever done.   

  2. Also for those saying JPP was a better athlete I would argue that being able to accurately throw a football long distances between freakishly athletic DBs while avoiding speeding rushers requires an exceptional level of athleticism, more so than say being able to do like a hundred backflips in a row...

    No... I remember his first start when CJL was still coach.  He had a big arm... but no... his 40 when he was with the Seahawks was 4.6.  He's quick but he was never really fast.  I remember BJs entire career... they said he ran a 4.5 in high school... he was a solid 4.6 guy, always was. Coach Taggart never coached Flowers up... he was Taggarts offense.  Also... to be honest, the Big East, while a wealthy conference, was not that much tougher than the American.  They just had a seat at the table, the teams weren't all that much better.  I'd say just look at now the former teams are performing in power conferences.  Basketball.... sure... just better and better competition.  Football... nah. 

    Yes I remember Q's first year as well. Again not sure of the point.  He wasn't exactly the Q we came to know at that time either. Further,  I am talking about entire careers. 

    Also if I am understanding you correctly Skip Holtz, a guy who decimated our program and is now coaching in s bottom rung G5 conferences provided equal guidance/preparation and put his players in an as good or better position to be successful than Willie Taggart, the guy who resurrected our program and who has since moved on to one of the most storied programs in college football history.  Also you feel the BE = the AAC.  Did you happen to notice our SOS the last 2 years, (Q's best 2 seasons), particularly 2017??   You are talking apples and oranges to the level BJ faced.   

    We'll just agree to disagree.

    I loved BJ but a lot of what you're remember is not true.  First he was just as erratic, if not more, passer than Flowers.  His numbers were padded by a ton of bubble screens.  Also he wasn't as fast... I think maybe you think he ran a 4.3 or something.  On his pro day he ran a 4.63 hand time.  That was his fastest 40.  Flowers ran a 4.63 (same time) at combines on the laser... which is always slower than hand time.  B.J. was never faster than Flowers... not sure where you got that from.  He did have a stronger arm... but Flowers is just a better football player than BJ was/is.  Flowers as a QB in general made better decisions than B.J.   I don't think he would have been nearly as productive actually.   

     You're remembering a BJ Daniels who played vs. better competition under a horrible coaching staff.  These factors could make anybody's decision making "look" poor.

    Also not sure what your point is about their pro- day 40 times as I am comparing theim in college.  If you recall BJ suffered a badly BROKEN ankle (not a sprain, an actual break) which ended his college career and hindered his pro day 40 time. 

    The converse of my point is also true. Q would not have had near the career he had if he played in the Big East under Holtz. 

    I'm a huge Q fan btw.  He is one of my favorite actual people of all time.  I just think BJ was a monster of an athlete, and probably the best one we've ever had at USF.

    I wish i could join you in that excitement. Nothing changes, MBB is a revolving door since CSH was shown the door. 

    yea but every 10-12 years or so we get to the point that we are half way decent.  

    Once CBG gets it completely turned back around in 3-4 years we will be just about due.
