    Yea, I go to Vegas for the food, the shows, and the clubs; I don't even gamble.

    As a foodie besides Tokyo, Seoul, and Barcelona Las Vegas is probably my favorite foodie place in the world. The new Hawker center based on the one in Singapore that opened at Resorts World has some of the best food I have ever had.

    Great place, I try to stay there when in  Vegas.

    He's had a very small sample size.  26 passes is not a lot of passes.  Everyone watching can see he did some good things vs. Tulane, as well as some bad.  But showed some potential and has a great arm.  He should be able to hit Horn on deep shots.  The wheel route he threw he dropped it right in a bucket.  He can throw the ball.

    Sometimes you can tell looking at a guy...he may have a cannon (which he does) but he is very inaccurate and still locks onto his first read in many drop backs...and he doesn't move that well.. I am with everyone on this board that I hope he turns it around...but an occasional nice pass isn't going to win games...

    Yes, b/c the PAST is a part of time that you can not change so it is irrelevant to Marsh's situation now. He also had 2tds and 0 ints in the last game which makes up for the percentage.  This season our defense have doubled the sacks and surpassed TFLs total from last year......but in the end, those stats don't matter if the other team scores or gets the 1st down. Marsh's percentage did suck last game, but he still had 2 BEAUTIFUL TD passes and 0 interceptions. So back to my question, what does his past have to do with the present or future? NOTHING. There is NOTHING you can do about him starting. He will either play well and we win  or suck and get replace by Byrum Brown who I like better. 

    I want nothing more for him to come out and absolutely kill it...someone mentioned practice with the first string should help...maybe, but there are things I see that don't seem correctable in a week...I would like to see what we have in Brown...I am not sure if he burns his rs though...

    So......what does his PAST have to do with anything? I only care about the present and so far buddy has 2tds and 0 interceptions.

    Are you seriously asking that question?  42.3% SUCKS!!!!!! we are going to lose the majority of the time with those stats...live in reality...nothing wrong with being a fan and recognizing what we have...I would be shocked if he suddenly turns this around and completes 65% of his passes...unless the running game is wildly successful we are not in a good position with Marsh at qb...

    The two coaches that have had success here had something in common when it came to recruiting.

    They wanted to lock down the bay area.

    A ton of talent comes from this area and the 1 thing you have that almost no other school has is the promise to play close to home.

    stop wasting time recruiting south carolina, georgia, north carolina ,etc. Look at our roster. it's loaded with kids from these areas. Great hunting grounds for Clemson. Not so much for USF.

    Lock up the bay area.

    I feel like we say this far too often...I was chatting with a Dad of an Iowa State player when Charlie was the coach that went to hs locally and he never got a call...I get the same feeling with CJS...

    Peatearpan tried to start a rational discussion of the game but it got infested early ….. admittedly he did kind of target the haters so it was probably to be expected.

     

    My take is that these last two games are what most of us have been looking for, games where we’re not realistically out of it by halftime (a kind of pathetic target but we are what we are at this point in time). With 5 minutes to go in the third period, it was a tie game. Then, in the blink of an eye (less than 2 minutes), we’re down by 14 and everyone knew at that point we weren’t coming back, especially without GB. Marsh had some nice moments but he’s not Gerry.

     

    Haven’t had a chance to watch replay yet, and not looking to officiating as an excuse, but just some clarification. Later in the game, Tulane had a long completion down the near sideline, sustaining a scoring drive, that sure looked like OPI in real time and also later in game when we’re trying to get anything going from fairly deep in our territory, there was a tackle on Battie that appeared to be a horse collar that would have been a little boost. Were we just imagining things?

     

    And oh yeah, Boyles is a ******* warrior and really feel for him ….

    If Gerry didn't get hurt, they win that game...count it

    After a USF close loss, how do you guys cope? I like to eat until physical discomfort. I also have a shameful habit of hoping for a Notre Dame loss only because their message boards are hilarious after they lose. 

    Drank about 10 bullet bourbons and yelled at my cat...just kidding about the cat...

    https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Sports-related_curses

    It's not uncommon for down-trodden fanbases to blame a curse on their lack of success. In the 5 years leading up to 2011/2012 USF was on fire. The football team was consistently ranked and beating big programs. The basketball team while not great still won 20 games twice in a loaded big east, won 2 NCAA tourney games, and had a 1st round pick.

    Since then USF has been irrelevant in the sports that matter. Outside of the Quinton Flowers years we have been downright embarrassing. Even in those years, how do you have a transcendent QB surrounded by NFL talent for 3 years in a G5 conference and your best win might be the Birmingham bowl against a .500 P5 team?

    Three ideas and how we'd solve each:

    • Falling out with Jim Leavitt - lot of people point to this as the beginning of the end, the program lost its fiery leader and their identity along with it. To solve this we need to mend that relationship. Name the field at the OCS after him, put him in a ring of honor, etc. Something to pay tribute to the man who gave us these expectations in the first place.
    • Judy Genshaft blocking UCF to the Big East - UCF fans love to bring this up. Would think if this cursed us UCF being in a P5 conference next season and us not being in one would free us from this curse.
    • The Daily Stampede blog starting - wasn't this around 10-12 years ago at that same time? The blog has some takes that are polarizing to the fanbase. Doubt this is it, but maybe they should not post anything for an entire week before a non-Temple FBS opponent just to check...

     

    (Puts on tin foil hat) I think its a combo of those things...I also have a theory that a UCF fan visited a witch doctor in 2013...some of the inexplicable things that would happen consistently in their favor game after game for years is mind boggling...
