    I'd look into Mass-General in Boston... affiliated with Harvard Medical School 

    Bringham and Women is also a very good place for valve surgery. Hopkins in Baltimore is another. I am more familiar with the northeast health systems. Emory has a great congenital heart disease program so I can only imagine they'd be a premiere valve surgery center. Duke would be also an option. Only issue is that I am not sure how complex your mitral valve regurgitation is. If feasible, repair is a bit more superior to a replacement so I get his thought process.

    the Tweet is upsetting but some of the comments here are ignorant asf.

    1. these players risk their minds & bodies out there. just to get to college-level of play, most football players have had their bodies banged around for over a decade taking hits to their heads & bodies. science is increasingly showing that even the hits sustained at middle- & high school level can do permanent damage to the brain. there are players out there that can't walk, can't remember words, can't control their emotions because of the damage done to their bodies from football. HONOR THEM.

    2. "Free education" ? no, they WORKED for it putting in days in the gym, in practice, on the field, on buses & planes traveling... All of which results in a marketable product that generates revenue for the university & takes time out of the classroom where they supposedly get their "free" education. also, NOT ALL PLAYERS ARE ON SCHOLARSHIP.

    3. I ABSOLUTELY AGREE that there should be guidelines about which players get alum tickets, but those guidelines & any subsequent changes should be clearly stated IN ADVANCE. a former player with an alumni ticket should NEVER make the trip to ***HOMECOMING*** & be turned away with no explanation. ***IF*** that's actually what happened, shame on USF.

    4. the Bulls have sold out ONE game. ONE. in 21 seasons. this season they're averaging ~30k per game. More than half the stadium is empty. those empty seats aren't generating money, but an alumni section would at least sell concessions & gear/souvenirs for family. it would also make a few less red seats visible on TV.

    5. Yes, there are a lot of former players, but not all of them attend all games. plenty live out of state or simply can't make the games. 

    6. Before insulting this former player, notice how he ended his tweet: "GO BULLS!!" he's disappointed & venting his frustration, but HE IS STILL CHEERING HIS ALMA MATER.

     

    it's amazing that so many non-player alumni & fans here who supposedly "bleed green & gold" & whose Saturdays revolve around USF football 3 months out of the year treat the players as disposable. i LOATHE sounding like a whiny liberal here (sorry for the MadCow material) but a lot of these responses sound a lot like the "shut up & play ball" attitude that has become a shameful part of our national dialogue... & once they are no longer playing, it's just "shut up & appreciate the opportunity we gave u to entertain us."

    BE BETTER THAN THAT.

    I couldn't have worded it any better

    I got FuBo for the Illinois game...   worked well until they cut it off early in the 4th quarter.   I see NESN website says they are on FuBo...  dont see NESN on the FUBO channel guide?

    I think it's regionalized because my FuboTV line up changes depending on where I login. I was in Connecticut and had NESN but back home in NY I do not. However, the game is projected to be on Eleven Sports which is in the lineup so I think it'll be fine

    I signed up for the free trial of Youtube TV and they are showing SMU vs Michigan, not USF. Anyone with PSVue know if they are showing USF? I'll go ahead and get that with my ps4 if they are. Can anyone please confirm? I'd really appreciate it. If not, off to a bar.

    FuboTV with the sports extra package has it on BTN alternate 1 channel. That I can confirm

    Great thread I appreciate the help....  On cable I see the Michigan/SMU game... assuming that's the 'main' B10 network game.

    I am not sure I will be able to watch...   I looked at the B102Go app.   They stream all the B10 content and I see the USF game, but you can't 'buy' access, has to be via your cable provider.    FoxSportsGo says they have B10 content, but I only see Michigan/SMU, not the USF/Ill game.   FuBo.tv also claims to have B10 content, but you can't see a schedule without registering, and I don't want to hand over the cc number until I'm sure...

    Anyone know if FuBo will really have the USF game?

    Actually it is now showing on fuboTV, I have it scheduled to be recorded. It's on BTN Alternate 1
