    @TRUTH D. Antagonist To get seats in that row, I would definitely walk in that section by 6:15-6:25 at the latest to be safe. Have fun!

    thank u!
     

    just bought my tickets. my kid is psyched!

    i dug out an old school football jersey thats yellow on the sleeves & shoulders, green on the body. i think its one of the first jerseys to use the OvarianBull logo, definitely a wild color scheme. it was always too tight for me so i never wore it but fits him perfect. i told him how uncommon that jersey is & how badly i regretted being too cheap to spend $80 on my proper size the last time it came up on eBay.

    he’s proud to own the jersey & even more excited for the game.
     

    future Bull in the making? 🤘🏽🤘🏽🤘🏽🤘🏽

    What should our name be?

    in USF South Florida Bulls Athletics

    Posted

    man f this. we ARE South Florida.

    we are named South Florida because we are the southernmost part of Florida with any real history.

    Miami was a friggin SWAMP in the late 1800’s while Tampa was a vibrant international city. 

    there is HISTORY & CULTURE in the Tampa Bay area that so-called “south Florida” Miami-Dade-Broward wishes they had. 

    theyre great for strip malls & condos & plastic titties on the beach, practicing your Spanish & eating decent Caribbean food, but they dont have the roots we have.

    we are South Florida because there was nothing in “south Florida” when our University was founded.

    the end. 🖕🏽Miami-Dade-Broward-PalmBeach

    Buy general admission tickets, get there early and sit in the last row of section 106, 107 or 108.  You can stand the entire game if you'd like.  I do it often.  If you can sit in the last row under the DJ, you're golden.  Your kid will love it.

    pefect response. exactly what i was looking for.

    i live in Palmetto, i was thinking of driving up early & giving him a tour of the campus then heading over to the YLC for the game.

    i’ll grab the GA tix & follow this advice. thanks 🙏🏽

    it’s been a long time since i’ve been to an MBB game. i used to just walk up, buy the cheapest ticket & sit wherever there was an empty seat (there were plenty).

    suddenly i have a 13 year old who earned his role as a bench warner on his middle school team this year & FINALLY, after years of having zero interest in sports, has an interest in my favorite sport of all… basketball.

    & it’s happening at a time when the USF MBB program is as good as its ever been. i had contemplated a Celtics game in Orlando, but his mother & i went to MBB games at the Sun Dome when we were dating & i want him to understand the importance of USF to my life, to our family & hopefully get him thinking about being a Bull one day.

    SO…

    i am the “super loud obnoxious fan” type, my son is more reserved & low key but enjoys watching me act a fool.

    what section would be best for a rowdy (but not offensive) dad taking his kid to his first real basketball game not held in a middle school gym?


    i want to be close enough to the action where he can get the full experience but not so deep that he feels he has to stand & scream all game. definitely dont want to be near any bougie sitters who like to watch their live basketball in peace & quiet.

    basically does anyone have any recommendations on a loud but not intense section where we can stand & scream when appropriate but still sit down & enjoy a hot dog & explain the game to my son.

    any suggestions?

    USF getting TONS of mentions on Bama/Michigan CFP pregame (Bulls to SEC? lol)

    in USF South Florida Bulls Athletics

    Posted

    The Bama/Michigan Rose Bowl CFP pregame has repeatedly mentioned the Bama/USF game as THE defining moment of Jalen Milroe’s career & Bama’s football program this season.

    Milroe said, near direct quote, “my favorite moment of the season was the USF game. that’s where we found out the DNA of this team & what we needed to do to win… we learned to play for the guys next to you…”

    im not a “moral victory” kinda guy, but our game against Bama earned us TONS of positive coverage & at least half a dozen mentions from Bama players AND the pregame commentators on HEAVILY watched national TV.

    millions of people in bars & at barbecues just heard “USF” mentioned repeatedly with video clips of our game peppered in.

    USF to SEC? 😅😅😅

    USF Stadium Glow Up: More Attractive to P4?

    in USF South Florida Bulls Athletics

    Posted

    no rational person believes OCS alone will propel USF into the P4, just like no rational person believes stomping Syracuse 45-0 in the 2023 Boca Raton Toilet Bowl to go 7-6 on the season in & of itself makes USF a “sleeping giant” in the state of Florida. likewise, AAU status— probably the most important of USF’s credentials— is not enough to get USF into the big boy’s club on its own or we would be in a ****** conference with a bunch of Texas schools not named UT or TAMU instead of Florida Central.

    no single accomplishment or initiative or quarter billion construction project is getting USF into a more relevant conference.

    it’s going to take ALL those things & more to get USF out of the minor leagues.

    the real question here is a simple one to answer: does an OCS improve USF’s chances at catching a ride on the next conference realignment? absolutely.

    facilities are a key component to any growing program looking to be competitive. it shows conferences the university has a vested interest in growing the school’s athletic brand & reputation. it shows that USF isnt content having a mediocre mid-major program that plays in-state bowls against some 6-6 P5 underachiever every few years. nobody spends $350M on that.

    it also matters to recruits & players. yes, pro-stadiums have an appeal but the luster wears off & players may not feel ownership of the building the way they would if the stadium were a 10 minute walk from their dorms.

    thats an underrated element in the NIL/Transfer Portal era: it’s not just about impressing high school recruits with brand new facilities & a vibrant campus life, it’s about fostering a sense of home & ownership that will KEEP those players on Fowler & not in the portal.

    RayJay is like renting your first apartment after moving out of your parents’ place. an OCS is like buying a house. now USF can sell players on building that house (or the history & traditions that take place inside it) & decorating that house with trophies & banners & the names & numbers of players who built a legacy in that house.

    & one of the best parts of owning a house is hosting parties & reunions & get togethers with relatives. an OCS brings alumni back to campus, keeps us involved & invested in the growth of the program. WE get to build our tailgating & gameday traditions & they will have NOTHING to do with pirate ships & skulls! & sometimes when u host Holiday dinner at your house, your rich aunt & uncle see the hard work u put into making that house a home & might fit the bill on the in-ground pool u want to build, or the privacy fence u want to put up…

    getting donors back on campus where they can see how their money is being spent will be a massive boon that RayJay can never provide to the program.

    then there are all the tertiary benefits: potential stadium jobs for students that are right on campus; the capacity to host large events & concerts; sponsorship money for different areas of the stadium complex; collaboration with/investment from corporate partners etc.

    it has the potential to be a home base not just for all things USF Football but for USF student & alumni culture. Come to the Bay, Stay in the Bay? sheeeit, come to Fowler stay on Fowler! 😅

     

    the OCS absolutely needs to happen & the list of benefits of having a home for USF football on campus only gets longer & longer the more i think about it.

    That might be an interesting prospect, but the conferences and mouse need to be careful. The Florida legislature might just pass a bill creating an all Florida conference. Mandating that every school that takes taxpayer money must play in this conference or face the loss of state funds. There is a short man who wears high heels and isn’t Napoleon that is crazy enough to do such a thing in Tallanasty right now.

    we will not tolerate slander from your corner of the California poop map, sir.

    he may be short & the heels may cause bunions, but he’s OUR hobbit in heels.

    also, your greasy grifter with veneers got dragged by said stillettoed dwarf on national TV.

    anyways, i would be content with a Florida University Conference Coalition for no other reason than when we complain about moving to a new conference our slogan can be “Lets get the FUCC outta here!” 😅

    They are EFFING HORRIBLE! Can’t even see the numbers an Im only 10 rows up in the club section.

    as long as we can see them on TV.

    ideally these would be one of many designs/colorways.

    id take a 50/50 split, 6 games of the classic gold helmet+green/white jerseys & 50% different variations of slime green, SoFlo ombré green, baby **** green, etc.

    we are already flirting with the idea, might as well make it a tradition, kinda like ugly Christmas sweaters… bring on the bile green jerseys!
