Paisa el Toro

I like the direction you are going with the whole Pamplona concept. When I went to the "running of the bulls," everyone dressed in red and white since it's part of tradition. Go Toros (Bulls)!

I've finally got my voice back. All the yelling i did during the basketball game plus all the partying for my b-day took its toll on the ol' vocal chords. Now I'm just counting down the days to being back in Florida.

and I have a few observations. Terrance Leather had an amazing game. Our team played great team defense against a very atheltic Michigan team. Brian Swift had a very good day running the point for the Bulls.   On a side note, I got to meet many of James Holmes' family members. They were all really cool and happy to see him back in Michigan. I swear they must have brought everyone from Ypsilanti to the game! Brian Swift and Solomon Jones were some of the most down-to-earth people I have met from any USF athletic team. They were really happy to see that there were USF fans in Michigan.   And my last observation is that UM fans weren't very loud. I out cheered everyone in my section; Holmes' younger brother, who was sitting behind the USF bench, heard me from my section and came up to say "hi." Although I hate losing, and this game was very winnable, I couldn't be more proud to be a Bull in Michigan. Well, I'll be relocating back to Tampa on Dec. 18th, so I hope to see a lot of you at the Dome. Paisa

Remember that Michigan won the NIT last year. Amaker has recruited some really athletic players. The Wolverines may not have much height, but some of their players have some really monsterous wingspans. I'll be at the game on Dec. 11th at the Crisler Arena. Look out for me on Television, since I may be the only USF fan there. There's nothing I'd rather have on my b-day than to see the Bulls upset the Wolverines. Paisa

I have to give props to the O-line. They gave PJ all day to throw the long ball and opened some holes for Hall to rack up 275 rushing yards. It was great watching the Bulls dominate on national television from a sports bar in Michigan. P.S. people here still think Daunte Culpepper graduated from USF! P.S.S. So did we get "destroyed" by UAB, lotsofbull?? : Lets go Bowling Bulls

I'll be at the USF v. UMich game on December 11th. Nothing would be better than watching the Bulls take down the Wolverines on my Birthday. Go Bulls!

great article. i think it definitely mirrors my experiences with friends here in Michigan. Still backing the Bulls from Michigan Paisa

****, looks like L'ville plucked a 6'8" 210 lb. small forward from our neck of the woods (Bradenton). L'ville is looking like they have a top notch group of commits so far. USF really needs to land a big man.

I graduated from USF in 2001. Currently, I'm in my last semester of law school. Hopefully my Tampa externship next semester will leave me some time to catch some USF b-ball games. Maybe I'll see some of ya there.

Amen! I think Basketbull's post has HOF written all over it. If it wasn't for this board, i don't know how else i would get my USF fix all the way up here in Michigan. I can't wait to relocate to Tampa in December.

One word: Halliburton. Cheney is toast.

Wow, talk about pessamistic. I thought we had a great chance of winning up until PJ threw the last INT. I consider myself a realistic Bulls fan, but I don't go into a game thinking we never have a chance of winning. Stick with the team; we're building tradition!

The second half of the game the defense really did carry our team. In all honesty we beat ourselves with several turn overs and suspect tackling at key parts of the game. Although the southern piss qb and rb ran all over us, our linebackers could have done a much better job of tackling in the open field to minimize their yardage. Turnovers are a real buzzkill especially when you're trying to mount a drive at the end of the game. With that said, i still stand by PJ 100% and he should continue to get the start. USF will only get better the more he's allowed to read opposing team's defenses.

I like our chances playing against Southern Miss. at home. It should be a defensive dogfight. I know i'll be watching the game in Lansing, Mi!

Great. So any bar with DirectTV gameplan should pick up the game, right?

Will our game against TCU be broadcast anywhere?

Tenn's QB's are awesome! I've never seen an offensive scheme work so well with two different QB's at the helm. However, it's going to be hard to keep both QB's happy with playing time in the future. Paisa

If im not mistaken we weren't even mentioned in his top 5. How does this kid expect CJL to contact him if this kid hasn't even shown interest in USF? I agree with the previous posts, no prospect is "too big" for USF.

I wonder what Neinas was questioning Oliver about? Anyone have the inside scoop? Paisa

According to Lansing's NBC affiliate WILX, Hollis removed his name from consideration for the USF AD position. I'll try and find a link for that story if it hasn't been posted already. I found it strange that they didn't report that he was ruled out of consideration by the search committee, like was reported in the tampa tribune.

When will we know the final and exact dates for our upcoming football schedule? Paisa

Yea, the trotters did play MSU two weeks ago and they had Magic Johnson playing with them and Larry Bird coaching them. I wonder if Magic and Bird are travelling with the trotters the rest of the way or if this was just a one time MSU thing? anyone know?
