Reading the UAB news definitely got me thinking about USF's situation. If USF continues to lose support and games, would fans or administrators start to talk about shutting down the football program? If we continue this trend for 5+ more years I wouldn't be opposed to it. Give the athletics fees back to the students and focus on academics, with basketball being the primary sport.
I don't think its out of the question. We missed the boat and nothing we do going forward will matter in CFB. You'll see more programs shut down with the power 5 squeezing the smaller programs out.
I follow our games but we are a joke as a program and even if we had a great year it really wouldn't matter much.
Wanted to go to the ucf game, used to go to them all, but I decided I'd rather save the $40x2 on tickets to watch us get clobbered and go black fri shopping instead. Many like me, that's why the stands are a sea of red nowadays.
