1. Herrman is coaching at FAU. Whatever people thought he was at one time, he ain't it now. So I have no idea why it is even a conversation.
2. Isn't this thread supposed to be about our football roster? This is getting like the realignment thread.
3. Can someone give me a one page summary about how we are doing with this roster turnover. Will we be able to win a game or two next year?

I guess that’s part of what I don’t understand because Mike is in the NFL but the other guy is not. So how is the other guy actually better? Honest question
The other guy wasn't better. The other guy was a scrambling QB which is what the HC wanted. Mike White was a pocket passer that was always (and still is) more accurate and plays within the system.
Just depends what you are looking for in a QB.

Ok.
Ok.
I will do it. I will be the new Men's Basketball coach. Just give me a week to play NBA 2K12 and I should be good.

Hey, I was just curious, any truth to the rumor Sparky Anderson is coming (next)???
I miss Sparky. But what Bulls teams really need is Billy Martin to fire players up, regardless of the sport.

Agreed. That's weak sauce. This wouldn't even put a dent in their profit margin.
For a $200 mil stadium, the "profit" made by the firm that is subcontracting out all of the work cannot possibly be that high. All the people they hire need to make a profit also, stadiums ain't cheap to build. And $2mil is $2mil. No one wants to pay that.

So everyone has latched onto the 14 safeties quote, but I just don't see it on the roster. Right now it IDs eight guys as safeties. Seven guys are listed as "defensive backs" and four are listed as corners, so it could be the guys listed as DBs, but a few of them - Daquan Evans, Jayden Curry and Amaris Brown for sure - have been playing corner.
That is exactly the point. Golesh and staff see those guys as safties that the previous staff was trying to shove into corner spots where they don't have the physical tools for that position.
That would explain a lot about last season, wouldn't it?

I am impressed with his recruiting on the offense and seems his staff is outworking the previous staff. My biggest concern is the defense and I hope they have a plan to get a few dt transfers, a linebacker or two, and a defensive back or two. I am curious if we are going to run3-3-5 or 3-4-4. I think out roster is better suited to a 3 4 4. I also don't want 5 defensive backs out there every play based on what we saw the last 3 years from our defensive backs. I think this coaching staff is putting in the work on the recruiting trail and hopefully we see it on the field as well. Time for the players to see this time investment that the coaching staff is going all in on usf football and the players step up and go all in on the field. This was a good class especially given the circumstances.
If the numbers he was citing are correct, we need CBs and not just any DBs. Says we had 12 or 14 safeties and only 2 CBs??? Yikes.
I can only assume that the previous staff expected to be able to move players to another position. Hope is not a strategy.

It was never designed to help all athletes. It was designed to help the power 5 and elite programs pay their recruits to play for power 5 programs with deep pockets. It is just a legal loophole to paying players.
We are the only country in the world that has professional sports teams at universities. I expect at some point there will be a clean break, and these teams will be associated in name only. It is rather absurd. In the rest of the world university teams are the equivalent to our club sports teams run entirely by student volunteers.

So a no-star recruit that isn't even listed on any of the services has nothing to do with said player's potential or ability?
That is an extreme example. We know for a fact that recruits that decommit from a P5 school to commit to a G5 school drop in rating more often than not. These services don't deeply scout thousands of players. They also factor in heavily which schools offer, the theory being the better schools offer better players whether that is reality or not. So the rankings, in general, become self fulfilling. Same way, someone who gets offered by Alabama they "must" be better than someone offered by FSU.

All my fellow Bulls fans out there, please keep the Mrs in your thoughts and prayers or karma (whatever you believe in). She was in a pretty serious accident yesterday, had some surgery yesterday with more to come tomorrow. Won't get into all the details since I've been running on empty for the last 36 hours. Foot (heel) and wrist fractures. Appreciate it.
Will be thinking of her and the best to both of you in the days/weeks ahead.

I'll use your comparison to divorce as to why I said "ruined his life". What if you were happily married to the woman of your dreams. You two have been together since your earliest years. You thought everything was great and you didn't want anything else in life. You were completely set on being married to this woman for the rest of your life. One day after a misunderstanding, she comes to you and says she wants a divorce and never talks to you again. You just had everything you've known and worked toward pulled out from underneath you. Sure you can say a lot of things about her, the reason why you're better off, it wasn't going to workout anyway, etc..whatever you want. But if you were completely satisfied with everything and wanted no one else but her, it's going to hurt like hell for a long time. Maybe forever. "Life ruined" doesn't need to mean you're living on the streets, having no other levels of success and starving. Life is whatever you define it as. His life was USF football. You take that away and his life, as it was, is ruined. I know the connotation of that statement "ruined his life" can be widely interpreted, I never meant he could never have any other levels of success and happiness after that. All I meant was the life that he had, that he wanted, that he seemingly never want to change, was forever ruined. He never got to have his second forever partner. He dated around a lot, had some fun, but is still missing a piece of himself.
She left you because you are a drama queen. Comparing a job to a marriage is pretty extreme.

Well, considering it ruined his life as it was and the life he lived was not the one he set out to live, I can respect him holding onto those feelings. From my understanding, he poured his entire being into USF and it was all taken away from him and life was never quite the same from that point forward.
I would like to have my life ruined by getting to spend 25 years coaching football and making bank.

I don't see why we can't make a bowl game this year. This is probably our least daunting schedule in I don't know how long.
2023 schedule

2. Florida Atlantic
3. Charlotte
4. Temple
5. UTSA
6. Memphis
7. UAB
8. Navy
9. WKU
10. Florida A&M
11. Alabama
12. UCONN
Is that in order from strongest team to weakest team?

Thank you. My wife and I do it not because of who is coaching, who the AD is, or even the "direction"...but because it is our school and teams we are helping. As was rightly stated, athletics is the front door to the university and we want to keep the entryway looking nice.
I think you can carry the stadium by yourself. A cool $100mil should get you naming rights. Hoping Savage family can also name the OCS field. Then it would be Savage Field at Cousin Ricky Stadium.

This is one big advantage that most, if not all, P5's (and some G5's) have over us ..... generations of fans/donors that feel that way.
In all honesty, most of the schools that are huge in athletics have one uber rich donor that wants his or her football team to be better than their rival school. We need a USF version of T Boone Pickens. A lot easier for everyone else to donate when they know they aren't dropping a few dollars that ultimately will be useless.

We are probably losing our best three offensive playmakers to Colorado. We need to find rbs and wrs to replace them. If we don't land any big transfers at rb,wr,ol, and defensive line I will call it a terrible class. Golesh has his hands full and let's hope he is better than Scott at selling usf and coaching at usf. This is why I wanted an experienced coach that sell his name and experience to current and potential players.
Battie and Byrum Brown are leaving for Colorado??????

People don't donate money and time to watch moral victories. It is time the football team does something or risk losing any real fans they have left. The ocs could be a nice boost if done right with a decent team ready to hit the field but until the team finds a coach that can consistently win it will not help. It is a lot of debt to take on. It is a huge gamble from an AD that has yet to find coaches that can can big the two biggest money making sports.
You seem to have missed my point entirely.

Unfortunately wins on the field are the only thing that matters in competitive sports such as college football.
But USF is a University (and a great one), not a pro sports franchise.

Unless I'm missing something, we're not being "bitter every time a player leaves". We fully understand why they'd want to go somewhere else. The ones catching the grief are primarily the ones perceived as quitting on their teammates. You don't have a problem with that, fine, but some do ....
Here's my problem. People bashing others based upon assumptions and innuendo. No one bashing this kid (yes, 22 is a kid) has any real idea whether he quit or not. But people love to pass judgement on kids...

I am not upset at him, like some here who have no idea what was going on behind the scenes.
I just don't really care. A year or two ago I thought he was our best receiver. But even when he was on the field he wasn't that impressive this season.
So we move on, as is always the case in college football anyway. X is the past, lets move into the future!

Cure game on now. Orlando City's stadium actually looks pretty nice. I've never been.
A terrific stadium, just cramped because of limited space. I think that was a result of the church refusing to sell, but that's another story.
In any event, the walkways inside work but get crowded when the stadium is full. I really like how it is as vertical as possible, so you aren't that far from the field like some stadiums when you are in the upper deck. Obviously football requires different elements, but the basics would translate.
