Welcome back. As long as you made that payment to the charity.

I actually did.  Even beyond football, I regularly donate now to multiple charities. Bit of a career change and have some loose change to do little good with.  Hopefully I get to do something I haven't done in years... storm the field after an upset.  haha Appreciate you all, here's to a new year and hopefully the start of a historic run.  OH.... I really really like this QB! Seen him at Baylor, the guys is the real deal.  So calm and puts balls in really good places. Not an int machine either.

I'm like fk it... I'm tipping my toe in the water but I'm not going full in until I see something. That former coach broke my spirit.

USF wins... that's score enough.

I would hope he'd be welcomed back. It looked like the Wisconsin game just totally crushed his spirit. His final post:

Hopefully if CJS can get us back on track he'll find his way back on here ....

Wisconsin killed me. CJS has me bullieving again.  Optimistic about our future under him. I feel like we have a coach, I know it's been rocky, but I feel like we're like a junkie that hit rock bottom and has found some redemption and a path forward.  Bad metaphor but you get where I'm going. I have season tickets since I'm back in the Tampa area.  I'm ready to get this thing rolling.

RIp @Calibull @Corey lea

Wasn't aware that I died. And who is this other guy mentioning me? I have no idea as to who he is.  What' been going on around here? You guys still haven't found a life? 

So yeah, while I'm here... USF 41 BYU 24.

 See you guys at the game later, moved back to the Bay area.  Not really much of a board guy anymore, but I'll drop buy from time to time.

Where’s @Calibull and the rest that told us how great this new group would be?

 we suuuuuuuuuuck!!! I’m literally over USF football. It’s been too much.  Strong needs to be fired.  But I don’t actually care anymore. I’m literally done with USF football.  They lost a good fan.  I’m not wasting any more time worrying about our football team... not even sure I care how basketball does.  Sucks... but I'm out 

this is ugly... probably not the year.  Defense isn’t the problem... but it is..lol

Also, to go from hydration levels for Wisconsin to down Tampa summer weather is a HUGE leap.   Hydrating days before, and the level of hydration needed while playing in the conditions here are likely something most of their team has never experienced.  However we have to keep the game close into the second half for this to truly have a chance to come in play.  Cramps don't matter when you're up 21... 

very true

Somehow the cramps seem to affect USF as much if not more than the visiting teams. You would think we would be experts at hydration.

hmmmm not sure I remember us having a cramp problem. Maybe but I don’t recall seeing it.  I remember Illinois have a serious with it... Northern Illinois too.  Definitely remember Syracuse had a bunch of guys cramp... also Cincy... maybe I just ignored us.

I run 20 miles a week in this soup. I know exactly what you're talking about.

you get props!!! Maaaan... its brutal but if you’re conditioned to it, it’s not so bad but playing out of it can be an advantage too... im pretty sure when I get back my body will appreciate the extra air and Ill be better than fine.

Trust me I know. I just went to San Francisco for vacation. I logged my fastest 5k time PR during a morning workout and felt accomplished. I came home and ran at 5:00 am and it was back to running through wet sheets. The sludge of humidity is real. 

it is... Very real

I'm originally from Miami but live in GA and everytime I come back home my friends make fun of how much I sweat due to my body no longer living in Florida  lol

literally me right now!

You are in my neighborhood. If we weren't going out soon I'd love to have met for a beverage.  

Im here until Tuesday... maybe we can make that happen. 

hey...OT... It’s humid af here! I forgot how this sh@t feels.  I was sweating balls working out this morning... and it’s hotter in Southern California than it is here.  I was drenches 5 minutes in and it only got worse.  I honestly didn’t know if it would affect the game but thought it might... now... yes, the humidity will definitely be a factor.  The Bay is wet af... there are some from the board who met me at the San Jose State game and see that  I maintain the fitness of a pro athlete... when I say  working out in this sucks... my god... it’s brutal if you’re not used to it.  Body’s first reaction is to dump water and salt.  I was working out at 5:00 a.m. not far from the Stadium.  I don’t even know what to say... this will be interesting to see how they deal with it. But I see cramps... and a lot of them.  Seriously dehydration will be an issue. 

I don’t even care... I’m here with my girl in Wesley Chapel and I’m ready for the game!!!  We will be the last east division champion to win a conference title!

CCS always hated Sawtelle.

would normally be funny... but not here.

That's terrible.  I feel for the young man.  But next man up.  Good thing we did get Macon.

All the optimism from you  and calibull is having an effect on me.  I upped my prediction from 7-5 to 8-4.

 

We'll let it speak for itself.  I think you'll change it again after we beat Wisconsin.

I get it I get it...but that win never did much for me and we **** the bed soon after. 

Oh I am right there with you.  I think it was nice win but I'm like... meh... we started off 4-0 an finished 5-7.  That season was the beginning of a long stretch of misery. 

Charlie mentioned as much in the presser.  They mentioned when Thaxton arrived, they said he's rusty but has some tools.  I think Zebo had an article up or either JK.  I know they mentioned him and I wouldn't be shocked to see him play once he's up to speed and in shape.  He missed the first half of camp.  

I think they'll be a lot of guys playing this season.  

We're really that deep

If ND had a decent QB we don’t win that game...but it would have been close

If  we were in a multi star solar system, night may not exist except for the occasional eclipse as a planet blocked out one of the suns lights.  But we don't, and it does.

ND was lucky with the weather delays. Without them the game would not have been as close.

True... we were actually starting to put the hammer down on them when that rain delay saved them.  They had no answers for anything that was going on and BJ was having a game.  Even then they went out to warmup and left us in the locker room so we were cold coming out of the rain delay.

I love hearing this but looking at ticketmaster there are still at least 4,000 seats on primary market sale.  I didn't realize the lower bowl held 48,000 (I thought it was 44,000).  It's all good news and I guess 4,000 left out of 48,000 is "nearing a sell out".

GO BULLS!

It's going to be LOUD!  I have some friends going who haven't been to a game since 2011 which is very cool... will kinda be like old times except my ace cant get make it back... though he is throwing a watch party.

I would have loved to have both of them on the field for this one. All hands on deck approach. But, alas, it wasn't meant to be. Next man up! 

That is actually my preference.  Nicco played well opposite Auggie that one season.  He's a finesse guy and does well sideline to sideline.  To me he and Macon would be two guys out there together often.  It still may be.  Strong is pretty open about injuries so if he's saying Nicco was a bit banged up, I take him at his word.  He hasn't hidden injuries in the past, dont see why he'd start with this.
