  1. No way we don't finish in the Top 10 if we win our bowl game undefeated. At worst that would mean we just beat another Top 10 team in a NYD Bowl Game even if we get no credit for the rest of our schedule. I know the CFP playoff is a long shot, but not being in the Top 10 would be equally as unlikely.
  2. Calling it now. IF we go undefeated we will be in the CFP. Yes it will take us winning by big margins, yes it will take P5 champs with 2 losses or even 3, but I think it will line up. The difference between us and WMU is that WMU started the season unranked not even receiving votes. In the initial CFP Rankings (week 10) WMU came in at #23 while 8-0. By winning their remaining 5 games they climbed 8 spots. At week 10, we should be 9-0 and I would estimate top 10 ranking since we start the season ~#20. Winning our last 4 against a potentially ranked Houston, and whoever the AAC West Champ is could propel us to top 5 and a CFP berth.
  3. Got my notification yesterday and received tickets today! I'm in Atlanta which I assume is closer to the printing facility for shipping purposes.
  4. Sell out to win AAC CG next year and get butts in seats. Kiffin would be your best option for both of those in the short term. Make no mistake he would definitely be a 1-2 year rental, but I would take it for our first ever championship. We will not get anyone better who would make us more likely to win in their 1st year here. Much different hire than in previous years as this would not be a rebuilding. Whoever we hire would be expected to win immediately. Hate the guy as an individual, but he knows offense and how to recruit, so I can put my personal feelings aside for 1 season.
  5. Staying at the Tutwiler Hampton Inn downtown. I would guess team hotels are most likely the Westin and Sheraton in Uptown as that is where the pep rally the day before the game is. I have stayed at both of those hotels and they are both what you would expect. There is a nice strip of restaurants in uptown just 1 Block from those hotels.
  6. I think you are missing a key point that we actually get 3 bye weeks next year because of moving our 1st game up. There will be one more bye week sometime in the middle of the conference schedule that is currently undetermined.
  7. I would add Wyoming @ New Mexico. If Wyoming wins, they go to the championship game, leaving Boise State out.
  8. Also on the fan boy train for this season. And disagree that we will disappoint, but what is wrong with saying Nichols is an NFL talent? I love Marlon Mack, but agree with the writer than Nichols is probably the better NFL player (best USF CB since Mike Jenkins) and don't see how that means he doesn't know about our team. If anything the fact that he named a player other than Marlon Mack shows that he follows us a little more closely than you think.
  9. Do you have a link to these standings or just calculated yourself? I am curious to see how UConn has such a large lead. Also what is up with our Cross Country and Track and Field teams, thought we'd have some athletes to do better in these sports?
  10. I don't think it was about poking the Gators, I think it was if he acts like he is committed to the Gators all that time, he isn't going to have coaches and family members constantly recruiting him still to go play for the Gators and can then just make his official flip at the last second without giving anyone any time to try to harass him and flip him back.
  11. Man you really just crushed my comfort level with the depth of our TE's. I had no idea Nataro had left, good call.
  12. We have Adkinson, Wilcox, and Nataro who I believe were all 3 star recruits behind Dillon. Yes they haven't played and are unknown, but no more so than a true freshman would be. I really wanted a DT as well, but don't press the panic button yet. Hector and Senat will both be only JR's. Bronson a SO. Gonzalez was a highly rated recruit and would have seen playing time last year as a True Freshman if not for injury. Getting Calloway back this year is probably from what I have heard but not guaranteed.
  13. Against Navy I would really like to see us go to a single high true safety and then go to a 4-3 front and still keep the husky/striker in as well.
  14. Thousands of Corporations around the world still use fax, its really not that outdated of a technology. With scanners and efax it is just as easy as email except it goes to a fax number instead of an email address.
  15. Also confirmed he will be a preferred walk on not scholarship.
  16. Does anyone have a list of who visited this last weekend?
  17. For the size of our class that is pretty impressive. Houston is just killing it though...
  18. I think I am most excited to see McCants get some more playing time this year. He looked explosive a couple times he caught the ball. MVS and Clearveaux are both unknown, but are both 6'3" so should slot in as challengers outside.
  19. Keep on doing you. I also find recruiting very exciting and agree that its great for the offseason. Nowhere did I say you shouldn't post different things you find or hear. I just like to take them with a grain of salt and not count my chickens until they hatch.
  20. You certainly weren't the only one, and I understand the jest. My main point is there is just way too much overreaction to a guy's twitter account or visits. They are kids they will do stupid stuff like saying one thing and doing another. And even stupider things that lead to criminal charges. I absolutely agree, lets wait until signing day and hope every recruit signs with USF. You never know what can happen, wouldn't be the most shocking thing if Saloman put up all the USF stuff again just to make his switch to Temple even more dramatic on signing day, but I hope not. Hell I'm still hoping against hope that Shavar Manuel switches to us last second out of no where.
  21. While I agree that I would love to have this WR commit along with Salomon, because you can never have too much talent. I think that WR is one of our deepest positions where we could really see some names shine next year if we can get enough balls to go around and I don't expect Freshmen to get much playing time. Adams (our elder statesman), MVS, Bronson, McCants, Reed, Barr, Legree, and don't forget about Clerveaux who was supposedly wowing coaches in camp before losing his 2015 season to injury.
  22. Oh man this is hilarious, hopefully all you wishing this kid good riddance can take back your comments now. Although maybe wait until signing day just to be safe. Can we set the recruiting doomsday clock a little further away from midnight now?
  23. When did we lose Latrel Williams? When Dugans left? Did we lose anyone else I don't know about?
  24. What up and comers do you know of though that haven't been taken already by a P5? I have a couple names from the Sun Belt, but have my doubts on coming from that conference. Plus we just took an up and comer and he only stayed here 1 year.
