No the exact opposite. When you fire a guy because you think he is plateauing your program most people would not look for the path to success being the guy that couldn’t beat him. If anything CCS would have been a better argument.

I have deescalation clauses for likes, days won, and engagement and I opened a new business card that has the right sub and bonus structure for paying online posting taxes that should help ease the burden.

If you have been successful before you are more likely to be successful again and if you come from a coaching tree that demonstrated past success you are more likely to be successful. CJS is known as the second best OC Clemson had on staff and the last best OC from Clemson to be a head coach is now doing so at a HS. There are definitely better indicators for success vs failure and CJS unfortunately checks ones that are more likely to lead to the results he is giving us. Can there be outliers? Absolutely! But we shouldn’t rely on them and if not for coaching in the ACC CJS wouldn’t have been the the horse we would have bet the program on.

He could go defeated this year and we wouldn’t be able to even consider doing more than giving him a stern talking to. We need CJS to succeed, which is probably why we should have picked a more sure fire option. That same link has Gus ranked 3rd while CJS has dropped from 10th to 11th (lucky for us Wichita State didn’t start a program this offseason or he would have dropped to 12th). Just win, it’s not that hard and half the teams in college football manage to do it every given week (unlike the rest of Dabo’s coaching line, CJS’ dad and shockingly enough CJS). CJS may in fact have a 5 year plan towards success and may one day prove to be a decent coach but we don’t have that kind of time and he needs to demonstrate something sooner than later. I know people think it’s entirely CCS’ fault for the team that he left CJS but if that’s true we have had quite a bit of turnover already so it maybe time to have some of these better* players start producing more than the players they are replacing. *better as defined by hopes and dreams and not corroborated by any recruiting rankings which seem to indicate that CJS is about as good at recruiting as he is at gameday coaching and hiring coordinators

So the players are getting bigger!

In all fairness to them they probably do look better when they are going against each other than they do when they go play against other teams

Seems like a fitting intro to our game

Don’t forget Covid that buys him at least 2-3 bonus years from what I’ve heard as we were uniquely impacted by something that only impacted the entire world

**** if Antigua wouldn’t sign you I may have to revisit my evaluation, or does it mean you may actually be good?

Sounds like some pretty solid stats from my USF fan perspective, do you have any eligibility left?

What’s my credit limit and will you pay discounted rates at higher tiers?

I don’t think they had them at my elementary school

And before anyone brings it up yes I’m aware that athletics couldn’t directly negotiate the NIL deals but they can get in front of the right people, let them know about all of the programs and discuss how they were there to raise money…. and to gauge the upcoming uncertainty of fundraising for the programs now that the NIL deals were going to be competing with them as well and that it maybe a way for people that couldn’t commit as a major sponsor of a program to stretch their marketing dollars.

I don’t think there are many people sitting around with a clue about women’s college basketball chomping at the bit for this rules change so they can support a team. I think you have to invent the idea for them as there were probably zero discussion about this, it’s not a part of anyone’s marketing budget and it’s not even on their road map. If anyone was sitting in the board room at the start of the year and said “hey chief I got an idea let’s give money to every girl on an AAC basketball team to be our sponsors and divert those dollars from something normal and with a proven and measurable ROI like pay per clicks” I’m pretty sure the response would have been something along the lines of “hey Jimmy I got an idea why don’t you get the **** out of here, I hear McDonalds down the street is paying $50 for people to just interview and since it is branded with a clown it seems like a better cultural fit for you”. I complain about athletics because we are failing, if we start attempting to succeed I will instantly become extremely positive but that’s entirely up to our VP (with bigger titles comes bigger expectations and with this title every year has come with greater losses). I honestly find it shocking that anyone can feel any differently as every year has been worse than the last which means every day that you see me on here it’s on the worst day of being a USF fan in my life, maybe you’re looking at the chart upside down?

Id be less inclined to hire a company selling college hunks to do anything with my junk than one that supports UCF women’s basketball but that’s just me

Why should he be calling us? We should be calling him and stopping by, we are the ones trying to sell something and bring brand awareness. It’s our job to know that these businesses exist and are looking for branding opportunities not their jobs to see if maybe a team called South Florida exists in Tampa and is interested in free money for their athletes. It actually explains a lot

We should probably hire an entire team of people that then gets to hire entire teams of people that then get to hire entire teams of people that then get to bring on hundreds of people that’s only job it is to get people to not be completely oblivious of our team and to get money from people. What if and this is a big what if we had already established a relationship with the guy and his company or perhaps tried to be on the forefront of getting sponsorships for our athletes instead of always being one of the last to market? VPMK and CJS are great at getting out to every other sporting event in the area, boosting them on social media and getting their pictures taken supporting all of the winning teams in Tampa how about for once getting people to want to go to our games and have a reason to support our team in the way you so enjoy doing it for everyone else? You know your ******* jobs. You know how happy you and everyone look in all of those pictures? Now go into our stands and see if anyone looks anything like that? Maybe if you fix that problem getting money maybe a smidge easier. Two years ago you could walk into any Bucs game, so the tide can change as quickly as you would like but you actually have to try to do something well.

I think Alan and his family do a great job in Broward for what they are working with

This is only going to get funnier to me the more you call it back

Are you volunteering? I would but I just found out what that word meant and I do not like the sounds of it.

How much does volunteering pay?

Idk copy and paste itinerary from two years ago, book places for mid afternoon and have people meet in Ybor with a couple of tables seems like a pretty difficult undertaking. I would think the lunch event would be more arduous to pull off in a time crunch. This is a pub crawl, individuals are able to create them on the fly but I guess that’s because they actually want to do it.

And what exactly are those unique issues? Tom Brady and not having our own stadium? No one is deciding between hiring Tom Brady and a college kid, not a single company on Earth. It’s no different than saying someone is deciding between a Kia and a Bentley.

My wife asks too but usually it’s something along the lines of “do we really have to go to a game again?” Or “can we turn this **** off? They are going to lose anyway”, so I guess the context of what they ask about is pretty important to if it’s great or not.
