  1. Good points, but we need an OCS before we can have a ring of honor. I don’t think they will stick Quinton next to Mike Alstott in RAY JAY. Yet another reason we need our OWN stadium.
  2. Right on....I am an avid OCS preacher as well. If that game yesterday doesn’t convince everyone associated with USF that we need a stadium then nothing will. I was watching on TV at home and it sounded every bit as loud as ANY college game I’ve ever seen. It was as exciting as any game I’ve ever seen. You don’t need 85,000 to create a great college game environment. That game absolutely proved that. I will take an “erector set” over Ray Jay all day every day.
  3. Very strange post. A big enough fan to post nearly 59,000 times but indifferent about ever winning a conference championship?
  4. I hope Quinton reads this thread. I agree with all that’s been said. I don’t believe we’ve retired a jersey yet...#9 should be the first. I am a 44 year old man, father of 2 young children ages 7 and 11. I have been around the block and don’t put athletes or anyone else on a pedestal, but Quinton Flowers has truly impressed me and has given my children somebody to look up to and admire. A true role model. I agree with another poster, I wanted this win so badly for Quinton. I look forward to seeing what the next chapter in his life is. I know he will be a success. Much respect and best of luck Quinton!
  5. This team doesn’t blow...these COACHES BLOW!!!
  6. Things that have never been said at Buccaneer Stadium....uh I mean Raymond James.
  7. If they run that play to DJ again I’m going to puke. We piss 1 down away every single drive.
  8. Could you ever imagine Saban or Belicheck saying something like that?!? Hell Jim Leavitt or Willie Taggart would never say something like that. I have been trying to stay supportive and believe he’s the best man for this job at this moment in program history....but quotes like these are making it tougher.
  9. “You’re going to lose to an undefeated team if you lose today, so it’s not a failure”....WTF?!?! Are they quoting Coach Strong there? If so, what a bunch of crap. What kind of quote is that?? How about “Losing the game is not something that we are thinking about.”
  10. Nobody says Connecticut, they say UCONN. Bad example.
  11. Quinton came to USF because he wanted to leave legacy at a program. He’s such a tremendous young man. I love the Bulls no matter what, but I am rooting extra hard for him to win a conference championship and a big Bowl game to absolutely cement his legacy as the GOAT Bull QB (probably already has, but it would be extra sweet)! Go Bulls!
  12. ..this is the biggest (most important game in history). After we win, the next one will be the biggest. It is time for us to finally win a conference championship. It looks like Chip Kelly is going to UF so CCS can forget about that option. Get this team fired up and ready for battle!!! GO BULLS!!!!!
  13. I like this quote and I’m with you! I am certainly not conceding a loss to UCF. There is a lot of heart in that Bulls locker room and they are not going to lay down by any means. This is a great rivalry that gets better every year. I’m excited for it. GO BULLS!!!
  14. We need an OCS. Period. I agree with those that say the increased “National exposure” of weeknight games is bad exposure. It’s a joke and it doesn’t even resemble big time college football. Is this really our pitch? “Hey recruits, you get to play in an NFL stadium. One with red and pewter seats....and yes, you will see 75% of them with no a$$es in them while you are playing, it’ll be great.! You’ve seen that cool pirate ship on TV, the one with the cannons?? Yeah, that won’t be going off during your games either.” “You’ll feel like the bastard step child of Tampa Bay football all 4 years you come to USF!....you are in a horrible conference that nobody cares about. You will never play for a National Championship. The fan base blows. The local media coverage is non-existent” I will keep ringing the OCS bell until it gets done. We need Mr. Jeff Vinick to help us get a stadium. We need to create our own brand. Our own unique game day experience. Nothing else will ever change until this happens. I guarantee it.
  15. I agree completely. I would love to see him stay in the Tampa Bay area. And he strikes me like another Warrick Dunn or Derrick Brooks type of guy.
  16. When the new OC said he didn’t watch film of last years team it told me all I need to know. That tells me that he’s either too arrogant, or not willing to put the work in, or both. To me that’s inexcusable.
  17. I just want to take a moment to acknowledge Mr. Quinton Flowers. I was on the Tulsa side of the field with my wife and 7 year old son. We walked down to field level after the game to take in the final moments of the last home game this season and celebrate the Seniors. The players all funneled down to the band/student section. They all shook hands and hugged one another after the game. It was really nice to watch...all of a sudden #74 (Ruff) comes over and acknowledges the few of us standing there, shakes our hands and genuinely thanks us for the support. What a nice, classy young man. As time passed it seemed clear to my wife, my son and me that we were on “the wrong side of the field”. After the players slapped hands with the student section, they walked down behind the Bulls bench shook hands with the fans and made their way to the locker room. All of a sudden, Quinton walks over to our side of the field with his beautiful baby girl in his arms...and shakes hands with the 5-6 of us that were on the opposite sidelines. He went out of his way to do it. My 7 year old son had tears in his eyes, he shook hands with Quinton Flowers. I told him “Son, that is the greatest QB in Bulls history. But more important than that, what a great man. After all that he has been through. He’s humble and appreciative of where he is” He took the time to acknowledge a tiny group of people that were well away from the rest of the pack. I wish him the best of luck for the next 2 games and for the rest of his life. After all he’s been through he deserves a great life. Sent from my iPhone
