  2. I thought CWT would get us a game @ the Big House vs. Michigan with he's relationship with CJH. Kind of surprised that never happened...hell, UCF got a game there - nice payday regardless.
  3. How about we get the Wolverines on the future schedule as a "thank you" for this exposure? Looks like they have some open dates in '18, '19....would be a nice payday for a game at the Big House. Hell, our Orlando comrades play there this year.
  4. Why cant this shirt be in-line with the Athletics tag-line of "Bulls Unite"?
  5. Where's the energy/enthusiasm with this team? 4th and 1 to start the fourth quarter, team is huddled up on sideline and they look flat...no head boppin or jumping around...NOTHING! No excitement on the field....how are we the crowd supposed to make noise if the home team can't get fired up? Something else to pin on the coach... And of yeah, how about run 1 or 2 QB sneaks when its first and goal from the 1....why a shotgun formation on first down? We score there...game is somewhat respectable...16 to 6,7, or 8...I can somewhat deal with...but get shutout like that? C'mon, man! Oy vey
  6. Good question...kids 12 and under were free last year with adult ticket, plus they had AYCE (with limited food) deals. I was poking around the USF site today as I was looking for tix for tomorrow's game and was wondering if that "kids free" deal is still on, but could not find any info on it or any ticket/game promotions.
  7. The one that jumps out is the 09 game at home vs. Wvu, a clean, decisive victory. 5 years ago?! The nd game doesnt count since nd gave us that gam
  8. Embarrassing.... just "Team", OK....I can live with.. "THE TEAM" ...ouch
  9. We finally have a chance to have a "real" offensive system...lets' be honest, the Leavitt + Holtz era was a lot of BS Sandlot plays (QB scramble/read option/ get lucky once in a while with a deep ball) - CWT's offense has the markings to give the program an identity and reputation...CWT comes with a good support system and the bus will be rollin' again.
  10. Looking for 2 good OSU/USF tickets for Monday night, any extras in the 100-level? PM or message me with details.
  11. http://www.cbssports.com/collegefootball/bowls/predictions They do not have USF in a bowl, but LA tech in the Beef O Brady's bowl.... So, it just hit me that there is the chance to possibly face Skip and his crew in the Trop...FWIW
  12. Agree with Bulls on Parade...we already have it. Also, you cant force tradition, they happen over time or in an instant...i.e. see Ohio State and "Hang on Sloopy" On Saturday, October 9 at the OSU/Illinois game, the halftime show and about-to-be tradition were almost rained out. During the second quarter, such a heavy downpour drenched the fans and the field that the band considered canceling its performance to avoid making an even muddier mess of the gridiron, which was grass. But, Head Coach Woody Hayes had grown to appreciate the band more than he did ten years earlier when he ordered the marchers off a soaked field during the 1955 Rose Bowl. So the 120 band members performed before a drenched but enthusiastic crowd. The OSUMB, in the form of a giant ballerina, stepped gracefully in the mud to Tchaikovsky’s Waltz of the Flowers – then suddenly began to gyrate in a wild Watusi as it played Hang On Sloopy. The crowd went crazy. Before the next game, against an unbeaten Michigan State up north, a nervous Coach Hayes took an unprecedented walk to speak to the band. With only 38 players on the bench and a mere 3,500 Buckeye fans in the Spartan stands, Hayes needed all the help he could get. When the Buckeyes fell behind by 18 points in the second half, the band, from its seats, played Hang On Sloopy. The call-to-rally role had been cast. From then on, Hang On Sloopy would be a catalyst for comeback, a starting gun to celebrate a foreseeable victory, or a summons to change the status quo for the better. Sad to say, the Buckeyes didn’t come back that afternoon, losing 32 – 7. But they were undefeated the rest of the season.
  13. Drew Henson is another...QB at Michigan and played w/ Yankees system and later the Dallas Cowboys
  14. 3:30 or later, please...I hate bringing up UF, but from a TV ratings perspective, arent the Gators off that week? Wouldn't it make sense to televise game later in day 3:30 or later to capture the entire FL TV market?
  15. I think Landi has a better shot @ NFL than BJ.
  16. what a stoner....he did look backed on the sidelines....amazing that these cats cant stay off the smoke
  17. Yes, Tampa and Florida are a bandwagon locations. The general public has a "oh, its only USF attitude", but this will change quickly. With the Bucs on the downturn, and USF on the upswing, I think you'll see a rapid change in the attitude towards USF next year. Look around, USF gear is popping up more and more. The baseball team almost drew 1K for the opener vs. HighPoint. There is starting to be a buzz about USF in general. IF (a big IF), we come out the gate hot and undefeated in September and the Bucs fizzle out, Bulls football will be talk of the town. In regards to the Sugar Bowl comment, be positive, anything can happed...what if its Gators/USF in the Sugar - Tebow v. Grothe....do you think USF will being ONLY 10K? Or if we play FSU in the Gator bowl? So far with these Bowl games, there has always been an excuse (Meinkeke - oh, its on NYE.....Pizza Bowl - oh, its only ECU)....if we get a showdown a top tiered ACC or SEC or Big10 school you bet the Bulls fans will come out of the wordwork. So, to answer your question...is USF football growing too fast? ABSOLUTELY NOT!
  18. AWESOME PICK UP! This is shaping up nice for the future! KUDOS, CJL!
  19. I'm in for that trip...back to the homeland.....RU is getting better w/ their atomsphere since they found out college football is actually fun and exciting last year. For those taking the trip, the easiest way to get to NYC from Rutgers/New Brunswick is the train...3-4 stops and you're in. Should be a good turn out for USF, lots of alum in the tri-state area. mid-October also means post season Yankee baseball...could be a nice weekend!
  20. thats a real sharp staduim...on the beach, just down the street from the famous cyclone...enjoyed the tourney here last yr, maybe we'll see it again in a few yrs
  21. dude, can someone give these guys props? Its just a party house...great idea! Good to see its Bull-related.
  22. I concur...a “U†Day (all fans encouraged to wear USF gear) - what a joke....clear the arena? I've been to DHers before for basketball and they just let you hang for both games...come on Athletic Dept...this is weak!
  23. Wasnt there talk of a Big East Bowl game in Tampa a few months back? Why cant Tampa have 2 bowl games? Phoenix/Orlando/New Orleans do. Big East/SEC match up for the Hooters Bowl in 2007/8?? Stranger things have happened.
