Looks like he’s an immediate add from JUCO

Not sure if this is for next year or an immediate add to replace Ewin.

We good at futbol?

We’re going to miss Coach Denise. That’s a tough loss. She’s done a great job with that program, keeping them competitive every year.

Even better - the women won their season opener on the road at LSU, 1-0.

Not to overestimate, but the Bulls came out of the gate strong with three exhibition wins, including 6-1 vs. UTampa and 2-zip tonight. Hopefully they’re ready to build on last season.

Just an exhibition, but 2-0 win for the good guys tonight vs. Oviedo CC in men’s soccer.

If Coach Go goes with GB, that’s the first sign to me that there’s no guarantee he’s the guy to lead us out of this. The QB needs to distribute the ball so guys can make plays and value the football, and in his brief time on the field last season, BB showed the best awareness of that and consistent accuracy with the football that I can remember since Marquel Blackwell.

Thanks, buddy! I’m having fun with it!

This is REALLY hard, but for hoops I have to go with Fred Lewis. He was so consistent and valuable on those Radenko-led NCAA Tournament teams. Football? Wow! So hard. How about Taurus Johnson? That guy made A LOT of plays for us but never seemed to get a whole lot of recognition.

He was definitely really solid for us, but he did have a BIG momentum-changing fumble in the game against UF during the Holtz New Era.

Don’t know if this has been discussed before, but we all know that the AAC’s TV contract pays MUCH less than the so-called “power” leagues. I’ve heard about $7-8M per team annually? But from the reports I was able to find, the AAC is receiving approximately $70M combined in both exit fees from UC, Houston and Oviedo ($30M up front by 2025 and another $24M spread over a dozen years) and entry fees from the six new member schools (around $18M combined). UConn is also still paying on its $17M exit fee from the AAC that began in 2020. The league also reportedly collected around $38M in postseason money last year - including a good chunk from UC’s football playoff appearance. I would assume that the bulk of those monies will be going to the remaining existing members: USF, Memphis, Tulane, SMU, Tulsa, ECU, Temple and - to a lesser degree Navy and Wichita State. If so, that’s a pretty good chunk of change that USF should be collecting in the short term, right? The $7-8M in TV money seems minuscule compared to what the “power” leagues are getting, but is it possible that the real number we are seeing over the next few years is actually more like double the broadcast rights number when you add in all the other revenue sources from this realignment? Obviously, it’s a relatively short-term boon, but if that is the case, it feels significant to me for us to be able to continue to invest and it doesn’t make the disparity seem quite as huge - especially when compared to some of the teams that moved and are paying exit fees, entry fees and/or are making smaller percentages of league revenue as newcomers. the key, of course, is to make the most of the opportunity over the next few years.

I’d trim that down to 16. Lose UNT, Navy, Rice, and Charlotte. Move Tulsa to the west and UTSA to the east.

Tampa. AAU. Relax.

Pretty sure Charlotte was with us in C-USA also . . . and the Sun Belt, too.

It’s called the “show hat” and it’s reserved for game days. I have many USF ball caps, but for years there’s only one that comes out for kickoffs.

. . . and all USF alumni should take great pride. Go to Google and do a simple search. Type in “USF” and then hit the “news” tab. You’ll regularly find a series of links about our university that include information regarding a variety of research breakthroughs (archeology in Malta, Dr. Deep Sea, etc.), national grants to conduct research (transportation, health care, military, a new vessel for marine science research, etc.) and other academic achievements. Oh, there’s some football in there, too. Do the same search with “UCF” and 90% of the links that you’ll turn up are football-related. We love USF sports and we surely lag behind Oviedo CC there right now, but when it comes to the true mission of a university, we’re definitely in very different leagues.
