I chose USF over UF mostly because Gainesville is a crap hole. USF has tons of potential and I don't know about the older alums but when I attended, we were told not to back down and admit that you are second rate to anyone. USF is as good as any school in the country in my honest opinion. The facilities are amazing, the academics are on par with the other public state universities, the campus is gorgeous now, tradition is even there if it is brought to light. Sure we don't have the titles...yet, but it will come in time. We can't give into the mind set that we are the little guy at the kids table. I would have rather seen him go to a Big East school because I want USF to compete against the best and the Big East to be as strong as possible...I don't want to beat pansies. The SEC already has enough top recruits and UF as well as the billions of Gator fans have enough arrogance to make most people's head explode. Am I jealous of their titles, a little...do I want to see them fall hard, yes...Can I stomach them winning another title, probably not.
