  1. Under Scott, USF has not and does not have an identity. Under Leavitt it was a defensive oriented team that offensively wanted to run the ball. Under Taggart it was an offensive oriented team that would out score the opponent, with the exception when Tom Allen was defensive coordinator. Even Holtz and Strong teams had identities, offensive and defensive respectively. One can also see the quantitative results by the number of players drafted and game metrics during each coaches tenure. Leavitt had many defensive players draft, Taggart more offensive players. But under Scott I don't see a strong offensive identity nor a defensive identity. On offense does USF want to run the ball by getting the fast guy in space like Taggart? On defense does USF want to take away the run and rely on 1:1 coverage? Over the last few years I can not tell what identity Scott is going for other than good culture and good recruits. Those two things a great assets but they will not win games alone.
  2. What was FIU's record last year? 1-11 USF was 2-10 Statistically speaking USF was 2 times better than FIU. (That's not saying much)
  3. Timmy should redshirt. He was thrown into action earlier than planned last year. He should use this year to get better. I believe he will be a good QB but in due time.
  4. UF will try to dismantle USF in the first half reason being they host Alabama next week. Hosting Alabama next week and the desire to defeat USF in the first half are the reasons why USF might beat the spread.
  5. The coaches who have had the most impact on the program were from the Bay Area; Leavitt Taggart and King. USF either fired them or let them walk away.
  6. If Cade Fortin is the QB put him back in and let him work through his issues.
  7. We all need to embrace Steve Austin Six Million Dollar Man. For those a bit young not the wrestler but the 70's television series. "Gentlemen, we can rebuild him. We have the technology. We have the capability to make the world's first bionic man. Steve Austin will be that man. Better than he was before. Better...stronger...faster."
  8. McCloud has happy feet and throws questionable passes. I would like to see Fortin play a bit this game.
  9. Would love Leavitt as a Defensive Coordinator. He's done great at every stop. Even made Colorado relevant for a year.
  10. I would like to believe this is a possibility. Since the current USF president did come from SMU.
  11. Tony Alford is a candidate for the Colorado State HC job. Although he is a Colorado native USF could be a better opportunity than Colorado State.
  12. What is the fewest amount of people in the stands before USF begins to lose money on football games at RayJay? As long as that threshold is not crossed then I believe USF should keep Strong until his contract ends. Therefore money can be focused on the IPF
  13. Nebraska has an indoor practice facility.... https://sites.google.com/site/nebraskafootballtraditon/photo-gallery according to present logic they should be recruiting at a high level and winning.
  14. One of the major issues over the last two years has been the offensive line play. Just realized the line was been so bad that Blake Barnett never played against UCF. Both years he was injured going into the UCF game. In fact McCloud hobbled into the game and the top two running back did not play. It so time to do some "questionably creative recruiting" on the offensive line.
  15. There have been some really good offensive players but there has been no offensive development since the Taggart Era. That is the piece that is missing and that is where I believe Kerwin Bell can help Defensively things have gotten better with Strong. Special teams has been terrible
  16. He is not getting fired. He will finish out his contract. Kerwin Bell needs another year to get his offense together. oh wait... I just looked at USF's 2020 Football schedule. Getting to a bowl game will be very tough next year. If USF does not go to a bowl game next Charlie Strong will be fired once the team is no longer bowl eligible. With that said USF will need to do some "Questionably creative recruiting" to get the talent needed to be successful next year. This "Blue Chips"....
  17. Keep in mind that was an offensive line without Jennings and some people were moved around. Also it was a defense without Macon. They did a great job. I truly feel bad for the kicker. He has put himself on the line since game #1. He will eventually have his shining moment
  18. Shout-out to Kerwin Bell and the offensive coaches. They were down Jennings and made adjustments to the offensive line. McCloud had a clean pocket for most of the night and then run game was solid.
  19. 9.5 was the winning ticket 14.5 is too high. Cincinnati is not a high powered offense like Wisconsin and SMU.
  20. So is the thought that USF will lose by more than 9.5?
  21. One should never rejoice in another's loss unless it's UCF. Way to go Tulsa. You made my weekend a bit better
