Brad, I'll get the pictures up tomorrow.

On the live broadcast, there is a dead spot from about 27:18 to 31:51 when the main camera failed. I was working on another problem and did not notice. Coach comes in at about 38:30.

From Capogna's facebook page...

Mutt wears his jersey with his username on it, as do I, Z-Bull, and nobullaboutit. When people ask, we tell them what's the ups.

Bulls Rally Live Stream Sorry for being so late with it. Looks like 2 cameras instead of 5. If I get time, I may try to get the other 3 up. Suffice it to say, that the testing proved my options were more limited that I thought. We'll get the main camera, the important one.

I'm running my final tests this evening and will have the link tonight or tomorrow. There is a USF Bulls Rally Youtube Channel, now. https://www.youtube.com/channel/UCFofb5NlDY5APvOZ39yePpg

As of right now, it will be a YouTube stream. We tested it yesterday afternoon at Capogna's and it was satisfactory. Remember we have to rely on the bandwidth of Capogna's WIFI. Here is the plan. I have 5 cameras. At least 3 will be stationary. The main camera we use for the local feed will be one of them, and I have a GoPro knock-off that I'm using for the 5th. I'd like to use it as a roaming camera for questions and cutaways. We'll see how things work out. I should have contacted Jim Louk and asked about having the USF Bulls Vision crew do the event. Next year, maybe. BTW, Jennifer Guido, of the Bull Vision Staff, pointed me in the proper direction regarding some issues I was having. I will hand off a link to Brad once I get the event set up on YouTube.

Sorry to hear this. He is in our thoughts.

Got 4 Monday in section 123, where my second set of season tickets are.

Jimmy pitched the 8th inning in a 1-0 loss last night. He gave up a bunt single, struck out one, and got fly outs from the other two batters he faced. It appears the Reds are setting him up to be a late inning reliever and closer. That's primarily what he did in Billings last summer. Daytona has used him in five games. He's pitched a total of 6 innings this season, giving up 1 run and 4 hits. He has 1 save, struck out 10, walked none, and has an ERA of 1.50.

The Bulls Ace from last season will be back home in the Tampa Bay Area next week with the Daytona Tortugas (Reds Advanced-A club) of the Florida State League. Daytona will be at the Clearwater Threshers Tuesday (April 19th), Wednesday (20th), and Thursday (21st). They'll be playing at Steinbrenner Field against the Tampa Yankees Friday (22nd), Saturday (23rd), and Sunday (24th). Tickets are more than reasonably priced. I'm hoping to catch him pitching at the Tuesday or Thursday games. BTW, Tuesday berm seats are a buck at Bright House Field in Clearwater. Hot dogs, draft beers, soft drinks, and other goodies are also just $1. I mean, if you need another reason to go .......

After a 5-3 win Friday night, with Phoenix Sanders going 7 innings and Tommy Eveld coming in for the save, Brandon Lawson pitched 8 innings, but got little run support in a 3-2 loss, Saturday. Brandon gave up only one earned run in the 5th, but he contributed to a 2 run UC 4th when he compounded an error by Merrel by committing one of his own. Today, Cameron Montgomery hit a 2 run homer in the bottom of the ninth to tie a 3-1 game. Tommy Eveld, who relieved Joe Cavallaro in the 8th, held check through the 13th. Andrew Perez started the 14th. Got a ground out and a strike out, then walked their lead-off guy and gave up a walk-off double to end the game. Does anybody know why Levi is still out? UC ran all over us today (4 steals) and stole one Saturday. I understand about the wind, but we couldn't steal a pacifier from a baby. Same wind.

Everything is on line, now, through ticketmaster. My understanding is that the current period, April 3 to 15, is for renewed season ticket holders to relocate and add seating. Although the web site is taking season ticket deposits, no new season tickets can be purchased and assigned until April 16. Did everybody who renewed get the email from Ryan, regarding additions and relocations?

The rule changes afford players the ability to see where they are at in the pecking order and what they may need to improve on. Not to do it seems illogical, to me.

Levi hit a 3 run homer in Sunday's game against Michigan State. I believe he's been hurt, but know little. Not sure what's going on with Luke. Both were in the dugout Friday night, the last game we attended.

The RPI is a calculated ranking. It doesn't matter who takes notice. Having said that, the Bulls are getting close to breaking the top 25 in the 2 voter polls.

Spring sports. They're not included, yet. Those sports saved our bacon, last season. The fat lady hasn't even warmed up.

Could not agree more. Seniors, thank you. May you be successful in life's journeys. We look forward to seeing the rest of you, next season. Onward and upward, ladies. Uniedo Los Toros

The Bulls won 105-104 with 4 overs to spare? Did I get that right? If I heard right, USF is the first school with multiple national championships.

DirecTV was the problem. I have that and got the UT/Alabama State game, too. We had to watch ESPN3 on Roku with the WatchESPN app to see it. FIOS also had it on ESPN2.

Isn't this like the Bulls 4th or 5th consecutive appearance in the finals? They beat Auburn for the National Championship a year before last or the year before that. I watched that championship match online.
