1)  What is your tailgate meal for Game 1?  Mexican Chicken Pitas

2)  How many USF quarterbacks will see action tomorrow night? One

3)  What do you believe will be the reported attendance? 35K

4)  Will you be staying until the end regardless of outcome? Yep

5)  What USF themed website celebrates its 14 anniversary on the same night as the Bulls 2013 season opener? TBP

Did they ditch the studio set and Dave Reynolds as host?  Will every show be taped in the comfy confines of the Bulls Locker Room?  BTW, I heard they stopped taping the USF Football Coaches Show last year half way through the season and just played reruns to finish out the season.

WoolyBully, the voice of reason with sage advice. 

The GAB is an awseome baseball park, I too was there to watch my Reds play this summer, no problem with bugs.  As for the stadium idea, it needs to be on campus or at least adjacent to the campus.  No need for USF to compromise.

I remember Ford ran all over Cuse and Northern Illinois in the Canadian Maple Leaf Snowbird Bowl.

Too early to make a determination on their coaching and choaching skills.

1)  What game will we win that we're not supposed to, if any?  Cincinnati

2)  What game will we lose, that we're not supposed to, if any? Houston

3)  What do you expect the run/pass ratio to be? 60/40

4)  Will we have the same starting QB in December that close out September? Nope

5)  What game are you most looking forward to? MSU

Thank you Brad for your selfless efforts to provide a forum with such longevity that we can celebrate those that have been here for over ten years.

Speechless!  I expect more out of the USF Marketing and Athletic departments.  A Jib Jab ripoff video makes USF look "small time" instead of "BIG TIME".  If we want USF to be considered a major player we need to start acting like it, this video is Sunbelt at best.  Another failure for the USF marketing department.

Its in Floyd's hands if he can be the starter.

The Trophy I want USF fighting for is a conference championship Trophy and not some contrived PR driven trophy for an in conference opponent and neither does Dr. Quest, Jonny, Hadji, and Bandit.  .

This season hinges on QB play, running back, offensive line, and the secondary.  I think with Coach WT USF may have the right balance between hugs (Coach Skip) and fire (Coach Leavitt) and an offense that can properly utilize the talent.  Anticipation high, expectations low.

^{I don't think this series needs a trophy, UF vs FSU doesn't have a trophy.}

The defense can only improve from last year.  It seems USF is getting back to their roots on defense.

What happened to Mike Pepper?  He was the sideline reporter.

The ND Game, eating in South Bend the night before and having to endure obnoxiuos college kids talking very loudly how ND was going to get their third string some experience in the second half after they had the game in hand.  Next, leaving the stadium and hearing an older ND fan explain to her husband, that team had some big players, they are pretty good, are they Division1.  At that point I had to jump in and give them the low down on USF.  My experience during that trip to South Bend was that most of their fans had no idea of USF nor did they care, it was a cupcake game to them, which made the win that much sweeter.

Lacrosse is exploding at the D2 level, even in Florida.  Becasue of title 9, it is more difficult for D1 programs to add lacrosse.  The State of Florida will have their own D2 conference for lacrosse next season. It is the fastest growing sport in America and its oldest.  Would love to see USF add it as a D1 sport, however, the Athletic Program currently has higher priority needs than adding additional programs.  Louisville is rumoured to be adding Men's Lacrosse in the near future.  Its a great sport that still suffers from sterotypes.

I could see EL making the practice squad as insurance at the TE position and for development with little to no impact to the salary cap.

Not bad, could have been worse. Now we just have to win!

Plus one.

They have a sweetheart of a deal with the city for the YUM Center, very similar to the Bucs owner and RayJay.

I agree with those that suggested the indoor practice facility. The remaining funds go into the rainy day account for future use.

 

 

Winning cures all. Winning creates tradition. Winning excites. Winning leads to conference championships. Nothing will matter if the Bulls don't win. Right now everything is table dressing. I will wait till fall before falling in love. Have we not learned our lesson from the previous regime?

This? Really?

It's called agreement with what you stated previously. Usually considered a compliment. I was going to say "this" as well but I will refrain from doing so if you like.

There are many that feel the same way, I'm one for sure.

Got it, thanks, understood!  I will now wipe the egg off my face.

This is the problem of trying to be a "big time D1" school with community college administrators, some of which are too busy tweeting instead of moving the program forward.
