For a 4th round pick

He maybe would have listened but nothing would have been done, Judy G is friends with the Cincy prez who we all know did not care of Huggy Bear, therefore I dont ever see how he would have come here, regardless of available funds.

Soncrant, where you be?

Please inform It read: Thanks for the memories, MAC. You could see it that far away, sweet.  I thought that it was very polite of me to thank him.

Excellent, instead of focusing on his own team and current situation, he will be enjoying NYC & good basketball, I guess those perks come with the job. Now if he is up there recruiting assistant coaches than I am all for it.

But his team just does not win. Brett's article shows what a good person he is (even though we already knew that), and sometimes I even feel bad gettin on him HOWEVER losing is still unacceptable and should not be tolerated. We need a new basketball coach but keep Mac as an Ambassador to the school, he is great for PR, a great representive of the school. http://www.tboblogs.com/index.php/sports/comments/mccullums-final-game-in-sun-dome/

Woolard says he evaluates when the season is over, 3 more days. Whatever he does, I would believe he needs to make a decision qucikly because National Letter of Intent is April 11, for the late period which is mainly basketball.

I was thinking the same thing, Soncrant is gonna be torn this weekend, what does he do? Usf on the outside and the Chippewas on the inside...Eric, how ya feeling?

It probably says that until more people care about basketball than baseball, Woolard isn't going to care. Good one Harvey, and maybe more accurate then most care to imagine. I guess those who care about basketball, do not have the financial means to have any influence.

Greenberg was a great guy, but it was time for him to go, he was not going any further with this program than he had already taken them. Unfortunatly we thought the new coach would take us a step further and we have taken 20 steps backwards. Greeneberg was leaving anyway, every yr his name would have surfaced somewhere for more money that USF would not have been willing to pay him and he eventually would have bolted, which you cant blame the guy.

Ok, all the Pro CRM fans have a point with the bad luck that he has had etc> My question is, when is it enough. What if next yr, something happens to Howard, or he recruits the best player in America and the guy does not qualify because of grades, or the FSU transfer who is suppossed to be a stud gets injured, all those scenarios are bad luck and out of CRM's control, so will everyone say next yr he has had more bad luck and should be given another chance, how many yrs of bad luck is one entitled to before the responsibility falls on their shoulders.

Was not to start controversy at all, gee whiz it was simply to have a conversation about basbeball. Doesnt monday morning quarterback segments take place every monday after Sunday's football games, to analyze and discuss games, thats all that this post is intended for.

In all seriousness, I dont care who the person has been coaching our team the last 4 years, if he does not get fired, I really want to know what kind of perfomance is does take to get fired from a job in America. But then again sports is never like working America. Whether its college or pro the business of sports is always different and held in a different standard than business America.

I knew it would not take long for someone to throw a statement like that in there, nobody is questioning his judgement or him as a coach or any other ridiculous things that one would try and pull from this post, it is just simply to get your opinion and what you would do.

Just for shoot & giggles would you have let Otero pitch the 9th or brought in Higgins to close out the game. Of course if we would have won, this discussion would not be happening, what are the opinions of you baseball junkies out there.

Love him or hate him, I think we all agree as the article says USF basketball cannot go on like it is. http://www.tbo.com/sports/MGBB0R06PYE.html By JOE HENDERSON Published: Feb 28, 2007 TAMPA - Doug Woolard met me Tuesday afternoon with a smile and an apology. The University of South Florida's athletic director is always smiling, so I didn't read much into that. Then he started the conversation by saying, "I'm really sorry, but …" That's never good. We had an appointment to talk about the future of USF's men's basketball coach Robert McCullum, but Woolard changed his mind. He fell back on his policy of not commenting about a coach until the season is over. That's two more games, starting tonight against Providence at the Sun Dome. We always feel compelled to note that McCullum is a good man, which he is, and runs a clean program, which he does. But he also is about to conclude his fourth losing season in as many years here. Normally that would get you fired, but USF basketball has never been normal. So we wait. "I just feel you have to look at the entire body of work, the entire season, before you make these decisions," Woolard said. Woolard made a policy exception a year ago. Rumors were rife that Bob Huggins wanted the USF job, so with two games remaining in the season Woolard pointedly announced McCullum would return. There are no such names circling around the USF job this time, particularly not someone the caliber of Huggins. But it's no secret that McCullum's future is in doubt again and people won't be surprised if there is a change. Woolard could have stopped all that with a simple declarative sentence: "Robert McCullum will be back next season." How hard would that have been? He wouldn't say it. Read into that what you will. Losing Continues McCullum is 40-74 since coming here, including 12-16 this season against a schedule front-loaded with creampuffs. He is 4-26 in the Big East. Those numbers are not unexpected, given that USF's basketball program is probably more in line with the Big South right now than the Big East. It's still unacceptable. Some of that is McCullum's fault, some of it isn't, but all of it has happened on his watch. His recruiting has been spotty and his luck has been worse. The Bulls have had more major injuries the last few years than a program ought to endure, but that only serves to magnify the recruiting problems. Lack of depth leads to bad teams and public apathy. On most nights, between 7,000 and 8,000 of the seats at the Sun Dome are empty, which kills the atmosphere. Which makes it hard to recruit. Which makes it hard to win, which keeps the seats empty … you get the idea. USF has a reputation in the coaching fraternity as a place where careers go to die. Lee Rose had been to the Final Four twice when he came to Fowler Avenue, but he couldn't produce more than a couple of NIT berths. Seth Greenberg had similar results during his tenure before he fled to Virginia Tech, where he's about to win his second ACC Coach of the Year award. **** Vitale calls USF the toughest coaching job in America. Any young turk interested in this job likely would be warned by the elite coaches that USF is a career-killer. The evidence supporting that argument is compelling. But USF can win, even in the Big East. The Bulls have been competitive in every Big East sport except men's basketball. Five years ago there was no program in America lower than USF women's basketball, but that has changed. The men should be able to do the same. Wait And See It's hard to see how anything in the last two games would sway Woolard one way or the other. The positive aspects of McCullum's program won't change - his kids generally are solid citizens, he stresses classroom performance. But the negative things won't change either, even with a couple of wins. It would cost about $400,000 to pay off the two years remaining on McCullum's contract, plus at least a couple of million more for the new coach. That's not insignificant, but money doesn't seem to be the issue. The real question is: Can USF win often enough with Robert McCullum as the head coach? If the answer is yes, then Woolard should announce it to the world and start getting ready for next year. But whatever he decides and whoever coaches, one thing is clear: USF can't go on like this. Something has to change. You don't need the whole body of work to know that.

http://www.bigeast.org/sports/w-baskbl/spec-rel/07-w-baskbl-champ-central.html We are an 8 seed, playing Seton Hall in the 1st round.

Maxed out at 8, wish I could get more, they really should allow more than 8 if one wants them

Hopefully, when we played St. Johns the game was blacked out on MSG (direct tv) in Tampa because game was being carried by Bright House.

What is the updated status on beer sales?

Beer there yet, if not which game will they begin serving?

Heisman Trophy

The funny part is the majority of fans who complain actually attend the games and those who are positive and want a losing coach do not attend the game, whehter it be they do not live in Tampa, or just have better things to do they do not attend. So I guess, we will be down to 500 or so fans at the games since we all are fired.

If our Student Athletes performance in the classroom equated to that of CRM record, would they be eligible to play?

2nd level in L2 is, I dont know about the rest of the people
