I'm bringing a picture of Bobby Petrino riding a USF motorcycle

Jim was a special coach... It's too bad that Mcfaggot had to dig into a non issue

It'll get done without us

Skip and co. are gone

Honestly don't think it was a catch, but it won't be overturned

I've never seen such a bad defense... All around bad play, from every unit

Wow

Ball game. Next week should be fun

That's funny right there! It's funny and depressing at the same time

I just tried... They're telling me that I have to upgrade to an Ultimate HD package.

Just to clarify... ESPN3 will not black out the game if you have a Verizon account, correct?

Any reasonable AD will gauge the interest of a Petrino if we have another losing season. The program is in a big time slump during a very crucial time (realignment)

Of course losing a full-time member like UL, UConn or Rutgers hurts more, but ND will affect being associated with a major bowl and it will hurt the contract. We were recently hearing rumors about the ND/BE Orange Bowl tie in. Now, there's no incentive for ND to help us out in that regard. At least we have something else to talk about before the game tomorrow. We never had that tie in to begin with... What makes you think that the ND child molesters had any real incentive to "help" us.

Wait... So you're telling me that the ND women's soccer team is leaving?!?! Our TV contract is screwed!

USF 31-20 Lamar Dunkley 431

As long as we don't turn the ball over we'll be fine... Still a bit worried about the weather, hopefully we don't repeat our 2nd half Sun Bowl performance due to exhaustion.

USF 28-17 Murray Griffin 422

Here is what it think is going on (or should go on): - USF is not buying the mall except in some of your dreams - Leavitt and the athletic dept have met with architects so they have ballpark figures for a stadium. - The football stadium will be the last thing to be taken care of so what needs to be done first are… - The new baseball stadium will be taken care of by Steinbrenner and others Lelo knows - The dining hall money is almost completely raised, and the rest will be there soon - The new track has been taken care of - The new practice fields and softball fields were taken care of by Mr. & Mrs. Morsani - More Sundome renovations will be made when the naming rights are sold - It won’t be hard to raise money for the rest of the athletic district (i.e. new tennis courts, new intramural fields by Greek village, and whatever else I can’t remember) - Tampa will get behind Bulls football after our breakout season next year (two nationally televised wins ?) followed by multiple very successful seasons - This will allow USF to fundraise for a new stadium – this stadium will be very nice with skyboxes, seatbacks for every chair, and other nice amenities. (This is why we want an option to get out of the deal) - That stadium will hold between 40-50 thousand people and cost between 80-100 million - USF will sell the naming rights to the stadium for 6-7 million - A fee will be introduced like the Marshall center to raise 10 million - 40 - 60 million dollars will be raised in private funds (over many years) - The rest of the money will be raised by advertising in the stadium, season ticket sales, concessions, parking, and bowl money (hopefully we get to a BCS bowl) - It will be located next to the Sundome and completed by 2015 - There will be expansion plans so they can add another 20 thousand seats at some point in the future This is just my guess from what I read and heard, and I don’t know as much as some on this board so I'm interested to see what your opinions are. Hopefully this doesn't explode into an ocs argument

I think we have a good shot at getting him. Does that I’m saying it’s a lock or a high percentage…no. All I’m saying is we have as good a shot as a lot of other programs. The reason is Grothe may be injured and that gives him a chance to step in. Some may say Voss will step in but if they both come, one will be redshirted to separate them like c hill and Grothe were separated. Voss has a lot of work to do to be a college passer. Marve is more advanced and I’m sure the coaches will bend over backwards to do whatever they can to get him playing time and would treat him better than any other program will. Our program is on the rise will others are on the decline. I’m sure he likes the prospect of being on a top 25 team and be a hometown hero (senior year or when Grothe is injured) then go away to an uncertain future.

Awesome win today--- all the positive USF talk will really help for a top 25 ranking next year.

what a paper reports is a reflection of what the people of the town want to see (sports section) and if people email the papers it will be the start of a change. more publicity like this will definetly help out with recruiting in the long run.

I find smazza’s post to be insightful but sometimes a little negative. The bottom line is we have been in D1A football for only few years and already are part of a BCS conference, knocked off two top ten teams, and are clearly moving up in the ranks as we have a decent shot of making it into the top 25 next year (this year if we win big with a few border teams losing). Are any of these things great accomplishments on their own…no. but when you consider where we have come from, the time in which they happened and the direction of the program they are amazing.

because he has stated that his back up plan for coach rod leaving is to visit Louisville, Kentucky, and South Florida.

i guess this means we don't have much of a chance for recruits gradkowski or victor anderson. but it does make the BIG EAST look great.

Sportsbook doesn't have any NCAA lines. I think we'll be 6.5-8 point favorites.
