That hint gave it away. This was a stumper. I think the degree of difficulty should be (scale of 1 - 10) 14.

Well, yeah, you´re weird like that and in other ways, but you´re also in the stadium for such announcements. I´m very happy for you. I also hear them talk about him on TV and radio. But I'm strange, I guess. They only announce when the team kicks off. Considering the lack of scoring, the announcement is a very infrequent occurrence and its quite understandable how some of the senior members of the board may tend to forget.

The off season is now complete. We have had another OCS thread. Batting 1.000 on off- season OCS discussions since I started following the board way back when.

USF has 1 national championship (Division II Women's Swimming) so I would like to see a second one sometime.

Here is a hint: we have played this school in football. Highlight for spoiler Cheater but we did play them

Actually splitting DI into two brackets would not be a bad idea as long as movement between the divisions is available. Let us say that there are 5 "Power" Conferences and 5 mid-major. Every three years the two teams that have performed the worst in their "power" conference moves down to the "lower division" and the top two teams of each mid-major conference moves up to the "power" conferences. The set-up could be BIG to MAC, ACC to CUSA, SEC to AAC, B12 to Big South, and PAC12 to MWC. Of course, there would have to be some type of tie breaker but that could be worked out. Now its a matter of put-up or shut-up. If the "power" conferences want to reap big cash they need to show that they earn it. Seriously, is Wash St really better than Boise? Or Indiana better than Toledo? The Alabama's, Ohio State's, etc. wouldn't need to worry about moving from one conference to another but the lesser teams would have to play ball and not just coast on the conference name. Over 4 or 5 of these types of moves the 70 programs that are really committed to playing football will show. And can you imagine the quality of games as teams are near the drop down or climb up point? Bet Miss St would put a big fight against Alabama instead of rolling over and playing dead. Consider also the effect on rivalry games where at least one of the teams are on the "bubble". An added bonus is that the conference payouts of the new system would be a bit more fair too. After all, it could be your team that gets screwed in the next three year cycle.

The Stetson Law School is in St. Petersburg. So they will need to travel but not very far.

Slick criticism of Cosh here. He is a good coach, but he couldn't tie together the defense. In other words, he couldn't coordinate. I admire a good slick criticism.

After reading the complaints and the charges I think only Calloway should be considered. He showed incredibly poor judgment in using a stolen debit/credit card, but no where in the rest of the arrest reports and complaints is he linked with the robbery itself. Out of all of them he is the one who showed poor judgement that can be easily rectified. The other three would be long term projects with scant chance of success.

Just where did AW end up at?

http://www.tampabay.com/hometeam/blog/usf-withdraws-scholarship-offer-connor-rafferty/16258/ Poor kid. Strange, everyone is saying that USF pulled a schollie offer, but they actually didn't. They told the kid that he was very low on the list. But he is still on the list. Basically, the coach was saying that USF might run out of schollies before his name came up, it would be a good idea to have a back up plan. In other words, there may be more recruits than schollies and you are rated very low. I think the coach was just being honest.

Interesting find. The chart in the link you provided has us at 53 and UConn at 52. Was there another link somewhere in the article. I don't UCF ranked at all on the chart. It looks like Pittsburgh is number 65, not UCF. According to the article, these rankings are for the 2011-12 season. With that in mind, it wouldn't have taken into account our 3-9 record this year and conference mess, so we probably dropped. --------- The chart just shows a ranking of selectively chosen universities. Not all of them in order. Try this one for the interactive chart. The interactive chart you are linked to if for 2011 evaluations. The one in the first link is for 2012. The value represents what the price of the program would be to a buyer.

It must be the time you are listening. I hear about USF from gary and the commish between 11 and noon most days. Rich and booger cover USF between 2 and 3 most days. USF magazine is on from 6 - 7 every thursday and coach heath is on from 6 to 7 on Tuesday evenings when the bulls are in town. They also try to talk to a USF coach on Wednesdays bewtween 9:30 and 10. Lighthall and Louk talk USF in the mornings usually after 8 for a few minutes, just about every time I tune in. I've noticed that their coverage for USF has doubled since they became the flagship station.Guess i just know when to tune- in. And, of course ET (not sure if its our ET or someone else) is on just about everyweek with something on USF. Although that Toe Truck was pretty bad.

With loss of so much experience USF really stand a chance in a few games. Some of the better teams will out talent us but the teams of equal or lesser talent should be wins. That's why I think 4 games.

If you don't want/can't pay him off then demote him. This is done frequently. Remove him from DC and make him the "special" teams coach.

You guys are funny. Apparently, none of you realize that the USF head coaching job is a state employment position. Florida Law requires that any opening in a state employment position must be advertised and open for a minimum of 7 days and that the employer must interview at least 3 candidates for the position. I'm not sure oif the official opening of the position was Friday (when apparently the decision was made) or Sunday when it was announced. The advertising requirement only requires a listing tht is publicly assessible. If USF placed it on craigslist (lol) it does count as the advertisement. It is entirely possible that DW has already made a decision and is just waiting for the 7 days to pass before he makes the offer. He has 3 interviews that we are aware of Taggart, Nutt and McIntyre. I don't expect an announcement until at least monday so get back to work and enjoy your weekend.

Here is a name thats going out there a bit. Tony Franklin, the OC at La Tech. Says John Hannah (Pro Football Hall of Famer, OG) "If two teams have equal talent, this offense is impossible to stop." he has head coaching experience at the HS level, thats how he got into college coaching.

Nutt is an Arkansas guy. At USF he would be a fish out of water.

I never drank ... until this season. Guess that says it all.

My Coach is Worse than Your Coach

USF, UConn Make History Holtz Changes Status Quo Saturday night at Raymond James Stadium was one for the record books. All 524 attendees left the game stunned and shaking their heads. Said one USF fan, "I wouldn't have believed it if I hadn't seen it myself." Said another shocked fan "It was so shocking, so stunning, I dropped my beer. I just couldn't believe it. I didn't know that it was even possible." An almost speechless USF coach Skip Holtz could only shake his head and mutter that "these things sometimes happen." UConn coach Paul Pasqualoni was seen laughing hysterically and banging his head on a brick wall. The Glazers stated that Pasqualoni would be held responsible for any damage to the wall. According to an official NCAA spokesman this has never happened before. "Its certainly a first. The NCAA will investigate to see if there were any irregularities but its doesn't seem like there were any." For the first time in college football history both teams in a game managed to lose. It is believed that this outcome had never occurred before at any level. This claim however, is disputed by ESPN analyst Lee Corso who insists that it also happened in the USFL. This would be difficult to confirm since no one ever paid attention to the USFL. In a related story, the major sports betting parlors in Las Vegas stated that since there was no winner all bets on the game are counted as losing bets. Los Angeles attorney Steve Mazza has already filed suit on behalf of the bettors, saying "They watched the game, didn't they suffer enough?"

Mark the end of a coaching era? We all know that Skip is 15 - 18 here at USF but did you know that Paul Pasqualoni (UConn) is only 8 - 12. Both coaches are sinless in the BE this year. So the race is on .. who is the worst coach?

Of the 8 games we have played the offense has scored more than 25 points 6 times. Its my thought that if an offense scores 25 or more you should win the game. The fact that we haven't is telling, excluding Tenn Chatt the defense has not held an opponent to less than 23 and has given up 30 or more 5 times (in 7 games). This season is clearly on the defense.

This is beyond pathetic.

Lol lol lol lol <bang>
