    The good news is that many posters on the board were ecstatic when we hired Holtz, Taggart, Strong, & Scott. So hopefully the lukewarm welcome to the new hire CAG will end up being a home run hire lol

    Holtz was a name that seemed a perfect fit. Taggart was THE up and coming coach. Strong  was an obvious hire that fell into our lap. Scott had the backing of Dabo and appeared to be a coach with a bright future. None were obvious failures AT THE TIME. All (maybe not Scott) had at some point had much success (ECU,  WKU, L’ville). Not only fans but most media had a positive outlook for the hires. Though hard to comprehend now the USF job was once considered a plum job.

  2. Offensively:

    2 yard dive on first and second down then pass to the flat on third down that fails to get a first down. 

    This should be a joke but that is how they started against BYU. 

    This should be a joke except this has been true for multiple OC’s over several years.  This was popular with Willie before he realized this could get him fired. My wife who knows nothing about football calls out this series while it is happening.

    Is Scott promising recruits that we will get an on-campus stadium if they sign with us?

    No but he is promising them they can play in an NFL stadium where the SB was just held.

    He is also promisingthat  when their parents come see a game they will have cupholders.

    Don't mind it at all.  The 5 bucks is chump change and with the ESPN app on my TV, the games are super easy to find.

    That’s not the point in my mind. The fact that I can watch East Nowhere State VS St. Patricks Girls Academy Boys Team football on normal channels yet not find USF is a huge “advertising” miss. Look up the number of subscribers to the four letter+ network. Out of sight out of mind (maybe a good thing this year). In today’s tough bar and restaurant environment how many places will simply say ‘Nope we don’t get that channel here’. The loss of casual and non but interested fans will eventually translate to apathy and ignorance of the program.  As a season ticket holder since the first year even I have found myself losing interest since games were on the Ocho plus. Listened on the radio but not the same. No interest in dealing with even a temporary subscription. Maybe my loss but definitely a loss for the program.

    They're stadium reminds me of my ball state road trip...isn't this the 2nd time were seeing Campell? Never heard of them now there on like Ohio state

    Obviously Coastal Carolina is better than Ohio State and that is why Campbell is on the four letter network main channel tonight.  The B10 voted to play only so Ohio State wouldn’t fall too far behind the CC program.

    I think what @Skingraftwas trying to articulate is that if they actually look good so far then that means we have more problems than we originally thought, our D must suck worse than we thought, so we are bad on both sides of the ball.

    Or...... the defense is good and the O line is great!

    They don’t call me Mr. Kumbaya for nothing.

  7. If that green was on a shirt or hat I would definitely not purchase. I know and like some of the alternate colors (neon green anyone?) but that ain’t one of them. Reminds me of some of the knockoff shirts from the early days.

  8. Michael Kelly was on WDAE this morning.

    Talked about protocols and testing, having to be flexible with scheduling ( still expects to play Texas), Rayjay a strength for social distancing (if fans allowed). The interesting part was the scheduling is still an unknown. Could range from conference only and currently scheduled non-conf (when available), conference only, conference plus picking up games from teams who got cancelled on, etc. Stated the situation is obviously very fluid but has been on the phone with teams and conferences including TX / Big 12.
