Gotta give credit to Corey Allen..kid played his butt off today. Seminoles were way too big inside today.

Wonder why Cousins hasn't played yet? Ruben looks pretty good but their big is shooting the lights out.

I like it. What do we know about the style of defense he may prefer. Seems like a good local guy coming home deal and maybe another in on some local recruits.

Yep saw that as well. Good article and shows Harlan is on the ball...but I don't see it happening.

We will be there. Its a fun day and you get to check out both games (gators) playing after us. Landlubbers has great wings also if you are thinking about the pre game event.

Could be a savior...Willie and the staff need a true stud QB badly...bet they throw everything they can at him but I doubt it works.

Interesting. I thought Bres did a great job in year 1. D was so soft this year but was it his fault? What is the point of an OC who doesn't have any power.

Cooper is a surprise...hope it doesn't hurt recruiting.

I would agree about Bresh being scape goated or coated. Same with the OC.

Receivers and QB development are issues..Dugans seems like a solid guy and a good recruiter...not sure about the QB coach.

I would agree about Bees being scape goated or coated. Same with the OC.

Not even on some radars. Wow how we have fallen. Not that these guys know anything.

Are the expected changes enough for you to think they will make a difference? I feel like there is an opportunity for some scape coating here.

Lol that is funny. I saw him watching them once so yes he does. Jk Hem!

Harlan followed me after a not so favorable tweet so since then I have tried to tweet more positive stuff.

That is a big time hire for SMU. He was one of the hottest assistants last year.

Lol brutal pop ups lately.

Would you rather he give up and stopped trying. We can be upset at plenty but not this.

BA...I will take you up on this offer.  I have men's hoops and being a sexiest consider female basketball inferior...jk sort of.  I know these girls are supposed to be worth watching and am willing to check them out.  I will offer two basketball tickets (right behind opposition bench) for someone who has not been to a men's game to a game I cannot make in return.

Cool idea.  

I am planning on keeping my donation and basketball tickets but skipping football unless Harlan can convince me otherwise.

Brutal. Wish we could just move on to hoops. Terrible quotes and I can't see the offense getting any better next year. Same QBs and no Davis.

He seems to get it. Two hires that are very promising and a good job of reaching out to donors and holding people accountable. Not sure what more you want from the guy in such a short time. Also some nice additions to the football schedule already as well. Marketing has been better already and the Bulls Club improvements (more communication) including the alumni tailgate have been very good so far.

I have been negative about this "rivalry" but game day is here and we might as well embrace it. Good job by the marketing department to try to hype it up maybe we will surprise ourselves and make it a fun day.

2 star though. Odd

They usually reevaluate the Juco guys I think. Seems like a big pick up to try to replace Davis. Now get a top juco QB and maybe we have something lol.

 

It was a "bones under the Sun Dome" reference.

The only senior on the Bulls basketball squad, Johnson had appealed to the NCAA for a sixth year of eligibility after missing the better part of two seasons because of two knee injuries.

The appeal was denied Thursday, ending a roller-coaster five-year college career.

[...] After a solid freshman year at Virginia, Johnson transferred to USF and sat out the transfer year. In November 1996, when he was allowed to practice with the team, Johnson tore his left anterior-cruciate ligament and was out the rest of the season. [...]

The next year, Johnson started 28 of 30 games and had his most productive season, averaging 12 points and 5.2 rebounds and hitting 47 three-pointers.

But on Nov. 24, 1998, two games into his third collegiate year, Johnson tore his right ACL. [...]

Last season, he averaged 8.7 points and 4.1 rebounds for the Bulls, who were 17-14 and lost 64-58 to the New Mexico in the opening round of the National Invitation Tournament. In the final seconds of that game, Johnson severly injured his ankle scrambling for a loose ball.

Ouch. Sounds very painful.  Wonder where he is now...

 

He is still in the area. I see him at his work once in a while..he still looks like he could play and still cares about the Bulls, but I try not to bother him about it too much lol.

" Next Years Tickets"  will be a tuff sell and have little to know value unfort.      (Im still buying mine) but question myself every time I make a payment.  

 

Harlan Please fix this mess soon.   We need something soon or their wont be anyone there to see it when it does turn around.

Agree with this.  Did the monthly payment plan then was grumpy every month it hit my account.  If and I do mean if I get them again next year I will do it in one shot like a band aid.  I will not stop donating and love my basketball tickets, but could see giving up the football tickets and just going to games when I feel like it.

 

I hate the fact this is our "rivalry" and big game now. I will never attend another game there and can't believe how far we have fallen. We used to laugh at the idea of this game.

I don't blame Harlan but man I wish we had bigger goals in mind.

 

USF was fortunate, perhaps lucky to be in the position they were in in the first place with being such a young football program.  A lot of things had to come together for it to happen so fast.  Maybe it's part of the reason that the bottom fell out and the Bulls have had trouble recovering since.  USF was never above playing UCF, just like the reverse is true now.  

 

Everyone has bigger goals in mind but start by winning the American, or finishing above .500 in the Big East/American (hasn't been done since 2007)

 

I actually agree with you for the most part. Never felt we we above it, just that we were worried about trying to compete in a real conference with traditional programs and were not going all out in the marketing department to try to generate hype for a crappy game to try to finish in the middle of the pack of a terrible conference.  We were indeed fortunate and the tables have turned.
