  1. Sub 60% competition percentage, 7 tds, 7 interceptions, zero fbs wins, and cost usf a chance to win at florida with a terrible interception. Guy wasn't good enough to win here. He hasn't won an fbs game is over 3 years. Good mentor, qb voice. And maybe a decent coach, but you can't count on him to win. Winners win on the score board . Losers make excuses for below average performances. I always though it was hard for me to mentally reconcile his 2021 season with his subsequent performance, other than the CJS factor. And I liked everything about him -- except for that not-winning thing.
  2. What kind of foundation did they recommend for a curse-free athletic facility at USF?
  3. I would say much more so. What other coaches may do is not the key to relevance.
  4. The "one-and-done" mentality has trickled over into the new NIL/portal universe. What was once reality for only some of the elite programs now is true for everyone. To paraphrase Jerry, we will have to root for whoever dons the slime.
  5. I would be for this, until he went to a ucf game and tweeted about USF.
  6. P6 to Pee-yew …. (that’s just for you) Ironically, leavin' on that midnight train from Georgia is perhaps just a leap of faith.
  7. We’ve improved our team buffet. No Bobby Eveld, but perhaps he will at least cast a shadow.
  8. I found a way to avoid all this confusion and yesterday gave what little reserves I have left to the fine folks running my federal and state governments. It really took all the discretion out of discretionary spending.
  9. Just move forward. I’m never going to stop being a USF fan so I don’t care if all the programs have nothing but a walk-ons. I’m still going to be here following USF athletics. Future is still bright despite the portal craziness. Go Bulls!! From now on let's just play shirts vs. skins pickup games. It really won't matter whose got next. Maybe we can find some awesome talent like I brought back in the day.
  10. It was fun while it lasted. Now back to our regularly scheduled programming...
  11. Noles look for real. They drubbed the Gville Lizards 19-4 last night and took the three-game series by an aggregate score of 45-15. Even the Bulls hung better in Tally.
  12. To each his own but I have been to all and, other than Colorado Springs, no thanks. And when Green Bay is No. 1, I stop reading.
  13. I tend to agree, but I wish he could spend a little time in Arkansas before committing.
  14. Watched him play some this year and was impressed. Wouldn't mind seeing him in green, even slime.... Ditto from above. Would be nice to build a little more of the USF "family" in MBB.
  15. Things get better and worse every day, same as it always was. That said, I think the current state of college athletics blows.
  16. Ironically, I am a "Bad Bob" who fled to the hills of NC and thought I took my 50+ years of Bulls jinx with me. I will gladly let my title belt pass to you if you want it.
  17. I don't think the kid is eating Chipotle on your dollar, but I get your point and it is valid. I know a lot of fans are frustrated that players want more, more, more when they didn't have the same opportunities. Student/Athletes should be grateful for everything they get. Whether we like NIL or not, it's the current model and we can embrace it or complain. For me personally, I have grown to hate professional sports. I don't even enjoy watching it anymore. I like USF because I feel like the joy to play is pure. I look forward to showing up and cheering on the guys who put on that uniform and dive on the floor. Win or lose, I can respect that. Or you can pay Ben Simmons 200M to sit out because his feelings were hurt Everyone has to define what they think is right for them in their relationship with Bulls and donations. While I was a longtime donor and very active in USF athletics fundraising, between the changes in the college athletics landscape and my own late-life transition in finances and interests, my donation days are pretty much.... I will still support the University, but Bulls athletics is now just strictly a (hopefully) fun diversion.
  18. Yeah, I lost the game and just got it back in time to see how it finished. Good for a change. Go Bulls!
  19. Not much of an offensive explosion by the Bulls so far today.
  20. All except for the 4 Tigers who've entered the other end of that portal .... It may be telling when the coach's son is one of those hitting the portal. Or it just may be that he can read the writing on the wall. That would be an interesting conversation to overhear: "Son, I love you, but you got to move on...."
  21. Yeah, I remember when my soon-to-be bride left her position at USF and one of her possible opportunities was at Arkansas. I told her simply: "Darling, I love you and I would follow you a lot of places. Arkansas is not one of them." We didn't pursue that any further.
  22. Guess he’s not interested in any coaching. Maybe he knows whose next in line.
