SilverBull

Thats it? What the hell kind of report was that??? How many seats were still available in the Club? Without inviting stalkers, what area of the Club section did you get in? Is the GJ area very popular? Did the Go to meeting procedure not allow any asking of questions? Hopefully SilverBull is looking out for us with some info .... With the 61st pick of the 2012 USF SunDome Select A Seat Draft, Silverbull selects Section 102, Row F Seats 11 - 16 (13-16 of which are going to a higher-ranking priorty points friend). I went at 9:30 am today and the Club Section was going fast, with all seats along the center aisle gone and Section 103 substantially spoken for. There were still some pretty good seats in 102 with the closest to the center aisle being 4 seats in. Facility is looking great. The parking issue is still being resolved. I was asked to settle up today.

When you say "central aisle" do you mean the whole center section or just aisle seats in the center section? I mean seats on the aisle in the center section, i.e., half court, where I had seats in the old dome.

Has anybody on here selected yet? I am up 9:30 am tomorrow and hoping for the best. I'm told the club seat central aisle is all gone but there still should be some good seats.

I would think so. I got an email for a presale for some other show recently. If it is like most other popular concerts all tickets will be purchased by scalpers approximately 0.0005 seconds after they are released for sale through Ticketmast and then you can buy them for 4X face value on Stub Hub.

He performed at the last concert I saw in the Sun Dome. Tells how old all three of us have become but the Dome's facelift seems to have worked out better.

This is an interesting, worthless projection. I'm not sure how anyone ever handicaps the Big East, particularly point spreads an entire season in advance. The conference is usually a mess, albeit a very competitive mess. Perhaps the motto of any would-be Big East champion should be "Avoid Sucking".

I must be missing something. I'm not sure what there is to "believe" about this since it is simply an opinion piece on who the commentators think those conferences should consider.

The answer is easy: Donate a $#!+ load and get seats on in the lower bowl on the 50. Win, win.

Finally read more fully the Phil Steele analysis. Florida State No. 1 Florida No. 10 UCF No.15 and top-ranked non AQ team USF No. 20 and Big East champ Four in the top 20? I think Phil has spent to much time in the Florida sun.

Hopefully this is all refereed like professional wrestling: "Stop hitting him with that concealed weapon. I'm going to count to three, and then I am going to give you a stern warning!" If not, !#$% it.

After last season and the change in the conference landscape, this is the first year when I feel I have absolutely no idea how the team will perform. I hope Phil Steele has it nailed this time but I have this nagging skepticism. To quote Maureen O'Hara from Miracle on 34th Street: "I never really doubted you, it was just my silly common sense."

June 13th? You're going for courtside seats, right? Naw, to low for me. Maybe one of those $35K loge boxes....

This will be an interesting process because of the number of seats that people are able to reserve based on donor level. I am on June 13th, which should be pretty good, depending on how many tickets each selector goes for. I ask people to report positioning as they go.

I wouldn't worry about it. When I went to the Green Jacket level I didn't get the symbolic jacket either (which were a hideous shade of green back in the day) and when I went to the Iron Bull level I didn't get a suit of iron, either. I did, however, get a shot at better seats.

Been great on facilities but, until the conference dust settles enough for us to see the future landscape of the college sports business model who can say? The real big boys of college football are not satisfied to get the lion's share. Afraid of even the slightest possibility of growing parity arising out of the limitation on scholarships and expansion of college cable broadcasting, the BCS bullies, with the help from their co-conspirators at ESPN, want to obliterate competition from any up and comers by making it too expensive to operate in light of the possible return in television revenue. I expect the athlete stipend to be the last nail in this coffin for many schools. Hopefully, when all is said and done, we are not on the outside looking in. If Doug can avoid that, then I'll give him high marks. Until then, school is still in session.

I really have never understood why he routinely predicts major success for us each year (once he said we were the "dark horse" for the national championship) when we never provide the proof. I guess he is working on the broken clock theory. I'd love it if we proved him right, finally.

Notre Dame has has continued to wield considerable influence in college football and, up until now, Notre Dame has helped Big East preserve BCS AQ status with the quid pro quo being that its other sports remained in Big East. With that going away, they will likely be presented with a deal they can't refuse from one of the major conferences, i.e., join all in or be locked out of any chance to play for the big one.

Opening opponent not finalize but a good one, per Stan.

Yeah, Bulls baseball in a gorgeous facility and Frenchy's Tiki Bar Happy Hour (the ladies drink free 5:30 - 7 pm per promotional ad). Sounds a bit like heaven.

Had a good turnout and a great event with Skip, Stan, Doug and former basketball players (including recent USF Hall of Fame inductee Chucky Atkins) all in attendence. They fired up the troops and it looks like the Orlando-area supporters will get more active as USF plants the flag and competes in conference on a regular basis in O-Town. Thanks to all who attended and, to those who didn't, see you next time.

Let me add to it for you... JD and the UF President are tight so UF will be offering Poly accreditation till Poly can secure it's own.... Out of the goodness of their heart. With apologies up front to our Polk County Bulls, that county is better suited for UF than it is for USF ... agreed. moved out, and eventually will find a job not in that county. will only go back to visit parents. i came from okeechobee county, which is redneck BFE good ole boy area, but polk county trumps it by far. it's disgustingly out in the open too, i guess residents there don't give a hoot and are okay with it. keep voting gop new graduates should move out of florida fast or try to join the machine the runs the county or state and get yours Kinfolk said "Jeb, move away from there." Said "Californy is the place you ought to be, so they Bushes and moved to Beverly"

Maybe JD Alexander will help us tear it down and start all over again.

A recent tour of the facility showed it is coming along nicely. Should be a big step forward, not only for basketball and athletics, but the university and the community as a whole. The reborn dome should provide a good mid-size events arena alternative.
