  1. Because there are few sports going on right now and you cannot speculate about the future of any sport without citing certain negatives (which have been beaten to death) and if you mention any of them the ridiculous USF-correctness mob will smother you with rolling eyes, question your loyalty and advance claims of your UCF affiliation.

    Now lets ask the real questions: Are you a Darksider? Do you know any? Have you been to any meetings or have you seen any movies made by Darksiders? Do you know any guests or have you taken any money from guests to advance thier cause. Do you know that you can be barred or punished for you opinions?

  2. Great job getting a consistant image out as per the great marketing plan of 2001. Maybe we should just embrace the fact that we will never be "USF" or "South Florida" and go as S"NA"FU.

    NOTES: Besides making its first NCAA Tournament, USF also will make its national television debut. The USF-USC game will be broadcast on ESPN2 and ESPNU with Sean McDonough (play-by-play), Doris Burke (analyst) and Holly Rowe (reporter). It also can be heard on WDAE, 620 AM; WTBN, 570 AM; and WTWD, 910 AM. ... The school's alumni club will hold a watch party Sunday night at the Clubhouse Sports Cafe, 5621 E. Fowler Ave. ... USC's official NCAA Tournament media notes refer to the Bulls as "Southern Florida" and "SFU."

    USF guard dismissed for behavior Series

    Copyright Times Publishing Co. Nov 2, 2005

    David Sills, the talented but transient playground legend from New York City's famed Rucker Park courts, has been dismissed from USF's basketball team before he played his first game.

    Sills, a 6-foot-1 junior expected to contribute as a backup at both guard positions, was dismissed Tuesday, unable to mesh with the discipline and structure of coach Robert McCullum's program.

  4. Jokmiste hasn't had a good game since . . . well he is going to throw for a thousand yards . . . . yeah thats the ticket. And Andre Hall will rush for a bowl record 500 yards while the USF defense not only holds the Pack to - 12 yards but they score 128 points and are immediately drafted, as a unit, by the  Texans who will win the SuperBowl in 2007 with the defense leading the way. All the while me and my wife, Maria Sharapova, will be at every game . . . yeah thats it, Maria Sharapova . . . . . . . .

  5. yeah very easy... considering the team is shooting over 70% as a team for the season...  and that is including Richardson who can't hit a ft to save his life...geez that is just horrible.

    Glad to see you dropped it from the 80% you originally stated and made it a little better than 2:1. About even money when you need 2 in a row.

    FREE THROWS-ATT.......... 101-144

    Free throw pct......... .701

    I think you will find that the percentage I originally quoted was correct 50% vs FIU mostly dropping when it mattered.   Anyway it was a joke . . .

  6. Is that better than last year or not I cannot remember.

  7. Sounds like the bandwagon's pulling up...

    I never said the team wasn't comeptitive, that the school didn't hold student athlete in high regard but I will say that the marketing sucks. By all means put words into my mouth and then attack them. While your at it change your name again and make up some incredibly whitty way to pat yourself on the back. Im done rolling around in the mud with you, you seem to enjoy it.

  8. Evan Kraky broke all of PA's state HS passing yardage records too  :P

    Just because he didn't get on the field doesn't mean he wouldn't have done a great (better) job here. I wish we would have got to see him this year as a starter. It seems to me that USF has gotten too caught up in speed and size and not football heart.

    I also think Chris Leak is one of the most clucth QBs in the country

    I would add talented and to see him struggle with his version of the spread offense makes me doubt the system even more. (see also: Marcus Vick)

  9. First you complain we don't win out and go to the BCS, now you're glad we didn't.

    WHAT EXACTLY IS IT YOU WANT WOMAN?

    You want to know what I what? Like it matters, but what I want out of my alma matas football team is:

    A.) Entertainment

    B.) The team to act as a marketing device for the school

    As for entertainment this Bulls team is about as entertaining to me as going to the dentist. I missed the UL game but other than that I can count the entertaining moments on one hand - mostly defensive scores.

    The concept that eludes you is that I am not pouting, I am not bandwagoning and I am just not going to spend my New Years Eve and $500-$1000 to go get my emotions drilled in Charlotte. No entertainment value there.

    In an ideal world the Bulls would have won at UConn and been competitive against UWV (a game where I took a bus with 43 non-Bulls fans) and gone to Charlotte the same freaken bowl they are going to anyway. The Bulls would have clinched earlier and I would have hope, some anyway, that they could compete with NCS and I would be beaming with Bull pride.

    As it stands I get irritated (maybe I feel a bit guilty) when I am compelled to make a statement by attending a game that will only hurt me to attend.

    As for the marketing device, that entails putting a competitive team on the field, holding the term student athlete in high regard and marketing that team for all its worth. Getting killed by Georgia in a BCS bowl on national television wouldn't have been the ideal situation.

  10. km_winner.jpg

    What was I thinking? 6-5 is a great year, having a pass oriented offense that ranks as the 108 passing offense in the nation is super. There are 9 teams behind us!!

    You're right its all great and I am to blame if they cannot get a guarenteed bowl bid next year.

    BTW - Thank GOD we didn't get the BCS bid. It would have embarrassed the program for all eternity. I was just a bit sensitive to being called upon to make a statement that should have been made on the field.

  11. Heres a chance to show just how big-time USF can be. LMAO Nice line.

    Big time? Powerful statements? Nice quotes now heres one from me:

    "If we won both of our last two games, that would have really made a statement across the country. That would have been as powerful as could be. If we at least won one, that would have been a good statement."  - Pariah

    Heres a thought: If USF wins at UConn it would have given USF alumni and fans another week to plan because the invitation would have come earlier. Instead we waited on the fence, watch another gruesome offensive display and lost our taste for traveling.

    I would apologize for not helping USF make a powerful statement if I thought it would do any good.

    In 2006, I will count on USF making a bowl game and will plan accordingly.

    Otis is that you?

    USF forward Jessica Dickson goes up for two of her 35 points against DePaul's Caprice Smith, left, and Jenna Rubino. Dickson had nine of the Bulls' 15 overtime points, and went 5-of-6 from the free throw line in the last 30 seconds of OT.

    Bulls have grand opener

    By GREG AUMAN, Times Staff Writer

    Published December 8, 2005

    TAMPA - Just like its football counterparts, USF's women's basketball team made quite a statement in its first-ever Big East game Wednesday night.

    The Bulls, getting 35 points from junior Jessica Dickson, pulled off the biggest upset in their history, knocking off No. 11 DePaul 79-77 in overtime in front of 482 fans at the Sun Dome.

    "This game is very big for us," said Dickson, who hit two key shots in the final 2:19 and then scored nine points in overtime. "This being our first Big East game, and against a ranked opponent, it definitely sets the tone for us in the Big East."

    The Bulls (6-1, 1-0) won't play another league game for a month, and just as USF's football team turned heads in September with an opening upset of No. 9 Louisville, these Bulls wanted to send a message.

    "We feel we're an NCAA (tournament) team, and especially with this win tonight, I think we can beat anybody in our conference," said forward Ezria Parsons, who had 12 points and 11 rebounds. "If we play as a team, if we listen to our coaches, I think we can compete with anybody, and we went out and proved that tonight."

    DePaul coach Doug Bruno said he came in hoping to contain Dickson, the Big East's leading scorer, but had little luck as she hit 11 of 19 shots, including four 3-pointers, to fall one point off her career high.

    "I think we knew we'd have limited answers for Jess Dickson, and we really had no answers for her," Bruno said. "The whole USF ballclub really played a good, solid game."

    DePaul (7-1, 0-1) lost its post presence when All-American forward Khara Smith (17 points) fouled out on a charge with 4:54 to play. While Dickson was dominant, the Bulls got their best game yet from freshman point guard Shantia Grace, who had 11 points and 10 assists with only two turnovers. They used just six players, with Dickson and Grace playing all 45 minutes.

    Wednesday's game is sandwiched between Friday's 71-47 loss at No.7 North Carolina and this Saturday's home game against No.13 Michigan State. Coach Jose Fernandez said he lined up an aggressive schedule to prepare his team for opportunities like this.

    "Scheduling North Carolina, LSU and Michigan State, a lot of people thought I was crazy," said Fernandez, who entered the game 2-9 against ranked opponents. "Where we want to take this program, we want to contend with the best teams in the country. For them to bounce back (from UNC) and stay focused, they showed a lot of heart and a lot of character."

    The game will be shown at 9 p.m. tonight on Bright House Ch. 47.
