Minotaur

From Gregs blog (which is good today) The buiding up is still amazing to me. It seems we have a never ending supply of youth right now. I am so excited about seeing another punter and thats perhaps the saddest thing I have ever said.

Like I have said all along, CJL will start PJ this fall I only hope that this competition has done him some good. He looked . . . better . . . yeah better yesterday than he did all last year. He had two GREAT passes with touch on them and everything.

I think he looked pretty darn good last night. I think the past year playing football again has helped his hands/technique and he is ready to become the play maker we all thought he was going to become after the Louisville game. The way he was looking to get the YAC reminded me of Deandrew for a second and then I was sad because I still miss him.

It was his own personal show for the first 10 minutes of the game. His name was still echoing when they had to announce it again. Slowed down a bit but had a solid game.

They were wearing Big East stuff for all that matters.

Good turnout and my MVP goes to whomever has been selling season tickets. Very few out there to choose from at the moment. My loss but I am glad to see that things are really picking up in the sales offices.

Ill second that . . . . PJ will win this job :'( I think the two INTs just doomed Grothe's USF career. It seems like he has to be perfect to win the job, but the other two just have to remain above the totally crappy line. I would like to take this opportunity to remind CJL that Mr Grothe is a redshirt freshman going into his second year like CH and desrves some slack too. I'm not really sure what I saw tonight. I need to watch the replay and see some stats but I am pretty sure that Mike Jenkins rocks.

Yeah Leavitt is really hyping the game. Gotta go to see Grothe in person. "Help me, Obi-Wan Kenobi Matt Grothe. You're my only hope."

After peeking at Bretts rosters, I can make my real pick. This information is so valuable that "preferred players" have been camping outside the Labyrinth for weeks, but now I am going to give it to you for free!! This info is so powerful it can move the line on the game in 20 minutes . . . . . My gold standard lock of the spring: Green wins 17 -3 When, not if, my pick makes you money you will know that I am the real deal. In the Fall just call 1-866-UA-SUCKA for more free information that the pros know wil win . . . . .

Brett McMurphy Norm MacDonald Maybe not so much, but with the new haircut he looks much less like a 70's porn star and more like Norm MacDonald.

I hope they are well, and the USF checks still flow.

Why can't I vote for the real for the winners Saturday: The fans. Its our only football for months. The real choices should be green, white, the fans and the Glazers (who will profit the most).

I guess those classes WERE more important than practice. Also I have boldend the begining of the waffling. When Hill redshirts expect to see PJ again. My heart . . . . its the big one . . . .

This board has got me seeing things . . . I thought I read: "All I got was tasered when I graduated." Just had to share that with the masses.

Great to hear the master plan got approved, that only took a single year. You know, even if it takes 10 years thats pretty darn good in USF time. Historically it took 10 years to re-seed the fields.

I remember seeing Woolard unviel plans, but has there been any word on when the project will begin? I did a quick search and wasn't able to find anything. Thanks in advance. I guess this is what I was thinking of when I posted. Its just a long term plan and what got approved was a feasability study. Sorry.

Minotaur: Well, sir, there's nothing on earth like a genuine, Bona fide, Electrified, Six-car Monorail! What'd I say? Leavittation: Monorail! Minotaur: What's it called? smazza and lotsobull: Monorail! Minotaur: That's right! Monorail! [crowd chants `Monorail' softly and rhythmically] Bullygurly: I hear those things are awfully loud... Minotaur: It glides as softly as a cloud. Apu: Is there a chance the track could bend? Minotaur: Not on your life, my Hindu friend. BullOnly: What about us brain-dead slobs? Minotaur: You'll be given cushy jobs. Cyberbull: Were you sent here by the devil? Minotaur: No, good sir, I'm on the level. GarySJ: The ring came off my pudding can. Minotaur: Take my pen knife, my good man. I swear it's USF's only choice... Throw up your hands and raise your voice! All: Monorail! Minotaur: What's it called? All: Monorail! Minotaur: Once again... All: Monorail! Judy Genshaft: But Main Street's still all cracked and broken... Velcro: Sorry, Prez, the mob has spoken! All: Monorail! Monorail! Monorail! Monorail! bullwark: Mono... D'oh!

The $9.00 shipping charge is not.

Here goes: Sorry about the delay and the imperfections. I had to scan it in in 4 parts and combine because Kinkos is overly copyright sensitive.

I hope you are right about this next year (2006) I can't see an eight win season unless something changes on offense and I have to look at the inability to change these last three years as a stable trend. Throwing to the TE and running the QB more is not a panacea for our ills. Anyway I see some clear wins (McNeese St., FIU, UConn, Rutgers and Syracuse) some clear losses (Louisville and W. Virginia) and some maybes (Cincinnati, UCF, Kansas, N. Carolina and Pitt). I guess it could get to eight with some momentum. I completely agree with your excitement about 2007, thats why I mentioned the importance of using this year to prepare for a strong year. I was already looking at it myself, even if not so completely as you, and I can see a Big East title and all that comes with it in 2007. HUGE OPPORTUNITY!! Gotta get the offense on track and two QB's some work THIS year. The defense will always be good enough to win with THE Jim and Wally Show. I already ache for Kravitz, but I am confident about that side of the ball. Too much determination on the coaching staff and Florida speed on the field to decline too much. Anyway thanks for your opinions, I always enjoy your posts.

sbien - glad to see your input, you always have know what recruits/players to watch. How do you see the upcoming year breaking down? I am hoping for a 6 win year, which I don't think is all bad if USF positions itself for a strong 2007 campaign. Please let me know what you think.

I agree with E.T. You saw Leavitt stick with PJ last year after giving him the early hook in game 1 versus PSU. I think he is convinced that he needs to stick with one guy to keep his confidence up and his nerves calmed down. Who that one guy will be . . . . well I bet its PJ again. (Anyone see the Leavitt show last year where CH said he was looking forward to winning multiple Heismans? The guy can't even win the starting job in an offense that needs a new QB and he is talking Heismans. I still chuckle about that.)

I am afraid that it is a few things keeping people so quiet. The first thing is that the reporting has been so good this year that there isn't a whole lot to speculate about. God help us all, we know that the QB situation is still up in the air. We know that the d-line is very thin, the o-line is young and the LB's we have are good but the back-ups are unknown. The masses are well informed and dare I say sated. Second goes hand in hand with the first: We know what we have. There are no great recruits that have come in this year and we are dying to get a look at in the spring game. I'm not saying they are not a good class its just that there are no big names or flashy players that are new. Personaly, I am afraid that the offense will be the same (minus Hall that could be wishful thinking) and the defense got a bit worse this offseason (Kravitz and D-Line). I also know that the 2006 schedule is harder than the 2005 and all that has my excitement level just about the Ho-Hum level. The pesimists have to be well below that mark. I may be well off the mark here but it may be a case of if you don't have anything good to say then don't say anything at all.

I am pretty sure thats the one I will post . . . . Couldn't find a big scanner, but I scanned these in tonight to hold you over. Will go to Kinkos tommorrow. (Yep thats the one CB)
