Judy Genshaft was actually the president that introduced SMU into the conversation at the meeting apparently. SMU would make a good travel partner for TCU and might help TCU remain with the commitment to the league. Both being in Dallas though might raise questions.

5 of the 29 enrolled in January and are being counted toward 2010. There is room for at least 1 more (Smith). There also will be a handful that will grey shirt and enroll in January 2012.

Yes schools are supossed to per NCAA, they sign several papers each year in accordance with this. Why is everyone saying this is stupid? Because it was Matt Grothe? Take the Green and Gold glasses off and look at the potential consequences of an underage kid drinking, getting into a wreck and harming themselves or others. 1) Matt and the Bull Ring would be criminally liable 2) Matt and the Bull Ring would be civilly liable. That would apply if the drinker was under or of drinking age. The only liabilty if the person was of legal age, would be if they over-served them and knew they had too much to drink. If you know someone is heavily intoxicated and a reasonable person (or those on juries) believe any more alcohol would create extra-ordinary danger to that person or others, you can be held liable.

MADD uses fear tactics to fiat laws on states. MADD is the reason the drinking age is 21. MADD is the reason the margin for DUI went from .15, to .12, to .10, to .08 in every state. MADD is singlehandedly ripping the rights of states to decide their own laws away from them. I agree that fighting drunk driving is a good thing, but MADD uses tactics of federalism and fear to mandate laws to states, blackmailing them into passing absurd laws in order to keep their access to federal highway funding. Wow. You have some issues my friend. Actually, the reason the DUI laws in the states dropped was because the children of those in MADD were being slaughtered by those with a .15 BAC, .12 BAC, .10 BAC, and .08 BAC. MADD used thier RIGHT (as you seem to like to throw that word around) to lobby the legislatures and citizens of these states and people like YOU voted in support of those laws and leaders. That is how is country works. If you want the legal BAC back at .15 you should do what they did. My feelings though are that you are with about 1 percent of this country.

Whoops, didn't see it was already posted. Sorry Bulliever.

http://www.orlandosentinel.com/sports/columnists/orl-bianchi0407mar04,0,47403.column?coll=orl-sports-col This is so true. Too many good "kids" out there that have good hearts that never get the chance like some others that don't deserve it.

USF gets higher rankings from Scout because of the site membership levels and USF has a site administrator that works at getting information about each players, etc. Also some of the senior Scout management, etc are USF alumn's or family members of USF alumn's. The same for UCF on Rivals. Most of UCF's fans go to Rivals rather than Scout. More attention is given to the ratings on Rivals and very little on Scout.

UCF Scout Rankings 2002 - 73 2003 - 65 2004 - 106 2005 - 78 2006 - 87 2007 - 61

Who was considered the 2004 class that got us #43 ranking? Out of curiousity what were UCF ranking during those yrs? UCF Rivals Rankings 2002 - 56 2003 - 52 2004 - 87 2005 - 71 2006 - 72 2007 - 60 (as of today)

Didn't 3 star Claude Davis decommit today and commit to Toledo? That may have been why.

http://www.orlandosentinel.com/sports/highschool/orl-spt-recruittop100,0,2068838.htmlstory?coll=orl-sports-utility-recruit UCF - 4 USF - 2 Each school could pick up 1 more each though too.

Something like this shouldn't happen. Hope Dorsey's family, friends, and your program recover from this, as best as is possible anyways. Dorsey will now get to watch over his team from above and guide them on the field and help them in other ways. Very sad to hear this regardless of which team you support. Tonight I say Go Bulls!!! My heart goes out to all hurt by this tragedy.

You can always buy more. There should be 20,000 or so available.

UCF will never sign a 2-1 with USF. Didn't they sign some 2-1 deals with other Big East teams.  Honest question.  What's the difference. That is a good question. Those contracts with Pitt, etc were signed when UCF was independent and not part of a conference. UCF is looking to increase it's stature. GOL does not feel the team that are outside the top 25-30 deserve a 2-1 deal. Heck, he even said that he will not sign off on any future 2-1's with Miami, FSU, UF, etc. A few months back UCF and FSU were talking about some games and FSU wanted a 2-1 and GOL said thanks but no thanks. UCF now has an on campus stadium being built and will ensure they have at least 6 home games every year. Signing 2-1's with programs will give scheduale makers a headache.

47,139 ???? Here is a recent story that includes last years attendence numbers.... Ticket issue trips up students By GREG AUMAN, Times Staff Writer Published September 13, 2006 TAMPA - Saturday's USF-Central Florida game in Orlando likely won't match last year's attendance of 45,139, then the largest ever to see the Bulls play at Raymond James Stadium. And though USF today will return to UCF a decent chunk of its allotment of 5,000 tickets, the Bulls have made an active push to get more students to Saturday's game. Questionably active by some standards, even if the drive is well-intended. Student Government bought two lots totaling 1,250 tickets from UCF at a discounted rate of $12 each - half face value - then went a step further by selling them to students at $5 each, subsidizing the difference of $8,750, with some of that money coming from the Activity and Services fees students pay as part of their tuition. Monday's initial sale of 500 tickets sold quickly enough that SG called an emergency meeting that night to authorize purchase of another block of 750. Those tickets sold out Tuesday afternoon, with about 150 students still in line when the last seat was sold. Their gripe? Organizers didn't put a cap on how many tickets could be purchased, so long as there was a student ID number with every ticket purchase. As a result, one student representing a group of about 12 fraternities bought blocks of 400 tickets, while others got none. "I wanted Greek Life to come together to represent USF with one massive push for tickets together," said Charlie Aguirre, who waited in line for 90 minutes before the ticket window opened Tuesday. Thomas King, a junior and SG's comptroller, filed a memo at Monday's emergency meeting, objecting that rules governing the allocation of student funds had been circumvented in the rush to get more tickets. Independent of student sales, USF had sold 1,976 tickets, well short of its allotment. But the combined total of 3,200-plus tickets sold is actually the second-largest contingent for a Bulls away game, trailing only last year's bowl debut in the Meineke Car Care Bowl in Charlotte. Asked for an update on total sales, UCF assistant athletic director Joe Hornstein was hesitant to give any figures Monday, saying only that he expected Saturday's crowd to surpass the attendance for the Knights' season opener against Villanova, announced as 29,398. Any crowd near that size would fall short of hopes on both sides of the rivalry. The TSA also reported after the game the "actual" attendance at just over 40,000 for our game not the 45,139 in the box score of the game and announced. From the Tampa Tribune: UCF-USF Excitement Leads To A Few Arrests Published: Sep 20, 2005 ADVERTISEMENT Past 7 days most viewed | Tribune archive (from 1990) TAMPA - A couple having sex in a Raymond James Stadium women's bathroom and a student urinating in the stands -- welcome to the University of South Florida and University of Central Florida football rivalry. Those were just two of the off-the-field incidents from USF's 31-14 victory against UCF on Saturday night. Not only did the school's initial meeting draw the second-largest home crowd in USF history, it also resulted in a record number of arrests (six) and ejections (23) for a USF home game. Most of the arrests were for smoking and possession of marijuana and underage drinking, USF police spokesman Mike Klingebiel said. There were also e-mails to The Tampa Tribune claiming UCF fans "deliberately trashed" the parking lots. However, Tampa Sports Authority spokeswoman Barbara Casey said the TSA staff reported no problems in the parking lots. Even with the record number of arrests and ejections, Klingebiel said he believes the USF-UCF series should become an annual event. "Most certainly the series should be continued -- USF should continue to beat UCF," he said. The actual attendance was 40,988 (announced crowd was 45,139), ranking as the largest for a USF game at RJS.
