  1. it's like they couldn't decide if they should put the names on the back or not, so they went half way. other than that, i think the uni's look nice.
  2. that hurt, but still a 2 score game, let's hope for better play calling
  3. LOB, you can't go to gousfbulls.com and listen?
  4. down by 10 after giving them 14, i'll take it
  5. What a jacka$$. Why doesn't he put his efforts into building tradition at his current university instead of drooling over another one. If Joe Pa and the 44,000 that could squeeze into that stadium 50 years ago had the same attitude as this kid, then the Penn State football program as we know it and the 107,000 seat stadium wouldn't be here today. Either help build tradition, or get out of the way. This kid is in the way. Get your a$$ unstuck and stop writing for USF's newspaper.
  6. From Tampa Tribune MARTIN FENNELLY Published: Aug 30, 2005 He's a man among Bulls. Dead ahead is a trip to Happy Valley -- home to Joe Paterno's Nittany Lions, whose home field, Beaver Stadium, seats 107,282 people. It's the second-largest house in college football. "I want every seat filled," Andre Hall said. South Florida's star workhorse hates the idea of someone missing the tracks he aims to lay down this season, beginning with Saturday's opener. "Do I like it? Some nights I can't sleep," Hall said. "Me, who plays before 35,000 here, going before 100,000?" Nearly everyone knows who'll get the ball for USF. The hungry senior who fills the front cover of the USF media guide. "If it's me you need to pull you through, that's fine. You can jump on my back. I'm going to bust it. I'm going to give you my all to win." Needed More Help On Offense USF lost seven times last season, but it wasn't Hall's fault. He carried the ball 210 times for 1,397 yards. He broke off runs of 63, 60, 58 and 57 yards. He scored 12 touchdowns. He had six 100-yard games. Against UAB, he hauled it 29 times for a school record 275 yards. He went for 200 against Army. If only Hall had more help on offense. He carried too much of the load last season. He joins the Big East as perhaps its best back, but defenses will zero in on him unless he gets help. Who knows how good USF can be if he does. Who knows what Andre Hall can do. He thinks he can do most anything. He sees the preseason football guides and all the running backs rated ahead of him. Adrian Peterson of Oklahoma. Reggie Bush of USC. Gerald Riggs of Tennessee. And so on. The 5-foot-10 Hall throws a stiff arm. "I'll put my best against anybody." He's the St. Petersburg kid with a tattoo of a pit bull with a football in his mouth. Andre Hall is the one whose motor is always going. Teammates lovingly call him "Mush Mouth," because he talks so fast they can't understand him. And another thing ... "You always see him, even with two guys on him, gaining yards," Bulls offensive lineman Chris Carothers said. "Those tough yards, they always belong to him." His favorite runner was Walter Payton. Hall's first love, after son Andre, is watching boxing. His favorite is Joe Frazier. "No doubt, Smokin' Joe," Hall said. "Joe is like a pit bull. He's always going. He doesn't stop. He keeps coming back for more." Andre Hall came back to USF for more. He flirted with making himself available for the NFL draft, but thought better of it. A good call. He wants to be a senior. And a leader. "I'm not trying to be a father figure, but if the young guys need to talk to me, I'm there for support." Andre Hall has a father figure. His father. First name: Captain. "That says it all," Andre said. Captain's Word Is Good Captain Hall is 85. He served as an army engineer in World War II. Andre listens to Captain. "He's a straight up, honest guy. His word alone -- you can stand by it." Captain listens to his son. Captain has glaucoma, and sometimes it's hard for him to make out Andre's No. 2 at games or while watching TV. Sometimes he just listens on the radio. "His ears are like his eyes," Andre said. Captain hears the motor roar. "I can't cut it off," his son said. Now comes his final season. Andre Hall isn't asking for much. Just the football. "I tell the guys every game, I'm not asking for a pancake, for them to throw a guy off the ball. I'm asking for a split second. I'm asking for a gap. Get me to the linebackers. I'm gonna fall for 3 yards at least. I'm gonna do that. No one's knocking me back." No bull.
  7. From the Tampa Tribune Moneysense A Tampa development company hopes to capitalize on the University of South Florida sports teams entering the Big East by spending $2 million on buying a former Hops Restaurant Bar & Brewery on Fowler Avenue and converting it into a sports bar with a USF sports theme. Jim Zmirich and Shawn Pulford of Alexander Reid Land Development LLC hope to have a soft opening for its Bull Ring sports bar on Oct. 1.

  14. Are there going to be any special shirts we can buy, like the gold ones for the Bama game, that will be worn...other than green, so we don't blend in with Miami fans?
  15. Dodge and Coke are actually TEAM USF Corporate Champions. Checkers, Chick-Fil-A, and Wendy's are some Corporate Sponsers with red as their primary color.
