  1. I am fine with this. Also who knows how long Gilbert stays before moving up as a coach so maybe coaching different positions is a good thing if King wants to be a OC in near future which I would think he wants.
  2. Not in denial. I was just curious since you see this in the NBA. He is gone and I don't blame him with injuries, QF getting more publicity, and new coaching staff.
  3. Is there a deadline for him to change his mind if he does not sign with a agent?
  4. I used to like when Greg would devote some time periodically to answer questions related about the Bulls to us fans. That was a great way to interact with him.
  5. Too bad Masiello didn't get his degree. We probably would be in better shape under him. This hire could not have been worse.
  6. Josh Newberg ‏@joshnewberg247 Jan 1 Willie Taggart offered one of the top 2018 CB's in Tampa, Ken Montgomery. Oregon will have a shot here.
  7. http://www.recruitingnewsguru.com/recruiting-trail-still-burning-2017-georgia-ol-jalen-jackson/ Through the long season Jackson picked up 18 offers coming from schools like West Virginia, Arkansas State, South Florida, Troy, Georgia State, Georgia Southern, South Alabama, Florida Atlantic, Ohio, UAB, Tulane, and Boston College among others. Once teams start hosting recruits on official visits, there will be a rush for programs hoping to sway Jackson their way to help anchor their line at the next level. How many offers do you have right now? “I have 18 offers.” Did you take any unofficial visits during the season? “I went to South Florida.” Have you taken any official visits yet? “No. I have four official visits planned in January. I am going to South Florida on Jan. 13, Georgia State on Jan. 18, Ohio on Jan. 21, and Arkansas State on Jan. 27.”
  8. I think if in Orange Bowl we would do well. If we can travel well to Miami Beach bowl there is no reason we can't exceed that for this game. Would think we do well for Peach bowl.
  9. Where would it be next year? You figure Dallas is out of the question since this is their year.
  10. Strong should focus on FL. No reason not to focus on this state with maybe a few out of state. Heck if TX players that are good want to play here im fine with that. May get more recognition by getting guys out there
  11. I wasn't referring to him. I think it helps to have a few guys with ties here. Does King, Reaves or Weist have any besides coaching here? The one thing I at least respected out of Holtz when he came here was that he kept Larry Scott who is an excellent recruiter in FL. Maybe it does not matter for CCS since he is well respected within the state.
  12. Seems like DJ has become an obsession for some people on here. Lol
  13. I would like to see at least another coach or two with FL ties. I don't think Gilbert and Mattox have any
  14. Maybe we should just retire his number now even though his playing days are not over
  15. Shocked when he has not been in those ESPN top 50 players for this year. Ridiculous

But with the hire of Charlie Strong has talk just gotten hotter? In Strong’s introductory press conference he told the crowd that he had already been in discussion with USF president Judy Genshaft about an on campus stadium and the crowd exploded with applause. Now an on-campus stadium has been a hot topic for the past week. Early in the 2016 year the Museum of Science and Industry announced they would be relocating to downtown Tampa. That initially sparked USF football fans to urge the school to buy that land to build an on-campus stadium. Of course there has been much debate on whether USF needs an on-campus stadium or not. So let’s get into it. Disadvantages Of Having An On-Campus Stadium A big selling point for the Bulls is the chance for players to play in a NFL stadium. With tough recruiting that is definitely something USF could use to their advantage. With an on-campus stadium the school would no longer have Raymond James Stadium as a recruiting tactic. There is also the maintenance and upkeep of an on-campus stadium. Right now USF doesn’t have to worry about since the Tampa Sports Authority manages Raymond James Stadium. But really that might be a small sacrifice to the benefits of having an on-campus stadium. Advantages Of Having An On-Campus Stadium Just as Raymond James Stadium is a recruiting selling point, it is also a downfall. A home game for Bulls players involves always being bused to and from their games. Ray Jay is also the home of the Tampa Bay Buccaneers, which means USF is not truly playing in a home stadium of their own. Despite having a field painted in the USF logo, the rest of the stadium is decked out in Buccaneers attire. It could be said that USF games are one big giant info commercial for the Bucs. “I feel like once you get a stadium on campus it’s (the players) home, it’s what they defend, it’s their house and that’s going to be critical and that’s going to happen,” Strong said during his introductory press conference. Of course attendance has been an issue for USF for the past few seasons. Even with a 10-2, possibly 11-2, season attendance has been a struggle. Of course more than one 10-2 season is going to be needed to rebuild the low point the program had hit, but with attendance averaging 27,887 per game this season many say an on-campus stadium would help with that issue. Currently students have the ability to ride a bus from USF campus to Raymond James Stadium. But doesn’t it seem more fun to be able to drink in the frat houses and walk to the football game whether than worrying about a designated driver or catching the bus? Even with attendance not being an issue, an on-campus stadium is something that sets the atmosphere at college football games apart from any other sport. The Bulls may one day grow into one of the top programs in the state of Florida, but the Bulls need their own home to make it a program that draws Tampa Bay football fans to them to continue their growth.
  18. Brian Schaible ‏@SBNationReports 13h13 hours ago Quinton Flowers for #heisman 2017? It could happen. He has the ability to have a Lamar Jackson type of year. #USFBulls #USF #BirminghamBowl
  19. What are the chances that the entire coaching staff of Oregon coached at USF before going there?
  20. Willie Taggart ‏@CoachTaggart 14h14 hours ago Congratulations to @USFFootball Players, Support staff & Coaches! So proud of how they handle adversity all year long. #DidSomething#Got11
  21. I'm fine with this. I want to keep at least King, Reaves, or Weist, Preferably all 3 though I am confident that won't happen.
  22. Lets win more games and do something about it.
  23. I could hear the fans on TV chanting USF at one point
