Like I posted in my other reply, I honestly don't know what will fix USF football. Nick Saban can come in here tomorrow and then, do what? We've got the talent we've got. I'm sure he'd do better than we're doing now, but he's not going to do great with the talent we've got, the facilities, etc. It feels like literally everything at USF has to change. That's going to take time. But, you've got to start somewhere. And, starting somewhere, an OCS is a pretty big, tangible step. It's a giant real symbol of intent that will help rebrand the program, show some level of commitment by the admins, hopefully excite students, players, future recruits, and alums, and ideally be part of the rebuilding process of everything related to football at USF.
Unis and things like that are just low-hanging fruit (cheap stuff) that can hopefully contribute to making stuff more exciting until the real big changes come. Fake it until you make it or something like that.
