  1. NBE is actually going to be catering to Navy
  2. Disagree. USF "belongs" as much as anyone. What has Syracuse, for example, done the last 10-15 years in football. Absolutely nothing. Don't care if they were good 40 years ago. This attitude sells USF short. you can be sure that there in San Antonio that Syracure vs. 'X' draws far better ratings than USF vs. 'X'. it is what it is
  3. agreed; i just hope it all had big deposits up front so we don't have a big debt hangover that we will try to support on meager cashflow
  4. not sure we'll know this definitively until the musical chairs tune stops playing
  5. what possible connection do we have for a kid like this when the B1G schools come calling?
  6. in some ways i wish we had never had our cup of coffee in the BE; our program had not matured to that status and we are returning to where we truly belong at this point in our history. without that six year blip, our progression line to where we are in 2014 from our early days would have still been remarkable.
  7. Really? Ever? If USF gets on the glide in path for AAU membership and if the powers at be in the B1G belive they are taking their final two expansion candidates, then USF offers many positives that a rust-belt bound conference could like. The $$$ in alumni circles is with oder alums and a plethora of them live within 75 miles of Tampa. And RayJay offers lots of open seats.
  8. The best scenario is for the expansion waters to settle for a couple of years, CWT bring a winner to Tampa which will support it and a foward thinking league without a FL presence to pick up the last besy available piece for their board. If AAU membership becomes a closer reality it could be the B1G.
  9. IMG may be giving Bulls a 1 year deal so they can promote this to northern schools with big $$$
  10. If we still had Paul Griffin as AD . . . . . .
  11. Glad its finally starting and we can communicate about actualities
  12. http://www.nytimes.com/2013/03/12/sports/ncaabasketball/left-behind-uconn-ponders-starting-over-again.html?src=recg Connecticut is not eligible to play in the Big East men’s basketball tournament, which begins Tuesday, nor can it qualify for next week’s bigger national show. It would still be fitting for the Huskies to be at Madison Square Garden for the conference finale Saturday night, if only for the purpose of turning out the lights. The party as we have known it is not only soon to be over, but Connecticut — the least desired of seven charter members to inaugurate the conference in 1979 — faces what could be a messy and muddled cleanup as the university left behind. “Frankly, when the league formed, nobody really wanted Connecticut, nobody but Dave Gavitt,†said Mike Tranghese, who served 11 years under Gavitt, the founding commissioner, and for 19 more after succeeding him in that role. “Only Dave had an idea of what that school could become, but I don’t know if even he could have envisioned what they actually have done. “In my 30 years, I’ve always considered what Connecticut accomplished, how far it came athletically and academically, to be the most significant individual thing. And now, in the end, they wind up a victim, in a way standing alone, and I don’t know if there is any rational explanation for it.†.......
  13. if the Hall is not careful they will supplant Depaul in the mini-BE
