    Yes, I think we will also watch him grow as a first-time head coach, and I do expect he will make mistakes here and there and learn from them. He also seems a quick study, but not afraid to make mistakes and appreciate the opportunities to learn from them, as a good leader should. Can't expect perfection and have expectations met all the time. He has an excellent set of examples to follow, including CDS and Michael Kelly. I am no expert, or shoot, even remotely well-versed in football. But I know a thing or two about leadership, and CJS has all the markings of a stellar one in the making.

    A totally fair approach. Speaking with him often enough, I think he 'gets it.' Leadership and culture first, wins come later. Building strong foundation. Not getting caught up in short-term expectations. Takes more time and cost to build a bigger, grander house. He says and does the right things, personally and professionally. I think he is the real deal. This season, I still expect at most a 4 win season. Next season may be a little better. The wins will come, but they won't be quick enough for the most impatient of us. I'm not worried about it, because I see the foundation being built.

    Had dinner with he and his wife, who are both awesome. Looked him in the eye, searched his soul. Listen to everything he says, watch everything he does. I have liked no coach since Leavitt, and Leavitt had his drawbacks as much as his talents. Trust me, CJS will stay, build, and eventually I believe there is a chance he may stay long enough and accomplish enough to outshine even the Godfather.

    I am certain the pandemic-inflated cost of building materials played a role in the slight delay. Credit USF Athletics, they are sticking with the plan no matter how many obstacles to sidestep. And if that new locker room is any indication, the new facility will be first-rate. Undoubtedly will be a huge boost to the program and recruiting. To the person who suggested we redirect the funds to coaching changes... CJS is the one. He will be long-term, he will stay through a championship. He will be USF's Dabo Swinney. He, his staff, and the program need this IPF. Great things are coming for the Bulls!

    Nah, if you catch the 'Rona, come see me at Guidewell, will hook you up with those Regen antibodies. Greatest thing in pandemic times since the inception of Bulls football.

    I predict 4 wins this season. 5 would be impressive. 6 wins to get us to a bowl game would be a fantastic turnaround, but that to me would be a "stretch" and shouldn't be expected. CJS still has a LOT of work to do, but the foundation is being set, and the culture is taking shape. We are witnessing the building of greatness. It will be a long term change; this season won't yet be the wins that will prove it. We will see signs, but it's much too soon for the validation wins.

    Will see y'all there!

    We will be on that flight with you!
  11. FazaUSF
    Yup already got our flights

    Man tap that jersey and say hi one of these times! Nothin but love for fellow Bullspenners!

    As a usual suspect, I will be there. Won't ever forget painting up for USF's first bowl game... Shirtless in 40 degree weather
  14. FazaUSF
    I predict 5 wins, no more, no less. 4 expected, one "overachiever" win. CJS (or ANYONE for that matter) needs more than a COVID year to turn this squad around meaningfully.

    Yes, there will be beer sales. Brews are back!
  17. FazaUSF
    I will be there, as always. Would love as many Bulls fans for companions as possible. But if there are only a few... more beer for me!

    Ugh, same thing applies as did the past few weeks. Yes, I expected a win today. Yes, I am disappointed. But former CCS really left us with less in the cupboard than CSH did. Declaring the death of the program is pathetic, hyperbolic, and barely worth acknowledgement. GTFO with your toxicity. We suck. Chop down rebuilds are always hard years and processes. It will take time, and we don't need your poor fansmanship dragging the rest of us down after tough losses.

    If you are scrutinizing the areas which need improvement for a freshman, you are right. He definitely needs work. Just saying, I believe he has the building blocks to be coached up and play very well in the next several years. A Matt Grothe he is not, but USF fans are used to having little to no depth behind starting QBs, and I was just pointing out it's nice to see there may be a future starter on the roster.

    His leadership and catalysm of cultural change in the program is huge. If you've never studied leadership, perhaps that has been lost on you. I encourage you to buy some books about leadership. From Stephen Covey to John Maxwell, you'll be able to compare the traits of a leader to football coaches. Jeff Scott has those intangibles. The ones Strong very sorely lacked. We lost to two ranked opponents in a chop down rebuild year in which the staff is new and we had nearly no practices, and there has already been significant improvement for the first time in over two years. Seriously. Check your expectations and cool your frustrations. Like I said, as Bulls fans, we get it. But you're focusing on the trees and not the forest behind them.

    Very mixed bag at QB. After watching them all play, I can't fault the coaching staff for having difficulty choosing one. Varying talents mixed with varying drawbacks. Hard to see an obvious #1. BUT, I am very happy to see Marsh play. He looked more mature than I would expect a freshman, and his raw talents and decision-making shows he gives us a reason to be hopeful for the future at the QB position.

    Dude, puc, you're outta line. We all hate to see USF lose. Jeff Scott was an absolute homerun hire. Good changes are happening. I feel your frustration, but perhaps you wouldn't be so much if you just admitted to yourself that this year was going to be rough on the W-L record no matter who coached. It's a full chop-down rebuild. I have felt it is refreshing to see all the true freshman being played. That alone should demonstrate to you - this rebuilding will take a few years, and you can't let impatience get to you. CJS & co will right this ship. It will take time. Cool off, the future is bright.

    Booo. I just got an email from FAU (I assume because I bought tickets from them) stating the game with USF is officially postponed due to COVID cases.
