  1. Doubt they have much insight but saw this come across email. There is a USF game on Saturday, September 3 @ 7:00pm. ...was informed by law enforcement that xxxx should not be impacted due to the expected small crowd.
  2. Hidden River and Tampa Oaks office parks are pretty substantially built out. Im not sure exactly whats left of developable land but uncleared lots lack the appeal of the MOSI site. Its essentially on the campus of a major research University and has existing buildings and infrastructure that could appeal as a near move in ready property to quickly occupy. Im not sure its that great an area for that type of thing much like it isnt really working for MOSI either. Municipalities want the tax revenue off that site as theyve put a lot into it over the years.
  3. They have got the zone figured out, time to switch things up. Bulls are mailing it in so far this half.
  4. Sentinel says Knights load up on 4 and 5 star recruits http://interactive.orlandosentinel.com/national-signing-day/ucf-knights-recruits/index.html
  5. That high ATS record is due to the speed of the program's resurrection and that success takes awhile to get baked into the lines every week. That said, I think we will handle our business and getting 4 points makes for some nice money line odds.
  6. And a very weak non conference schedule, could that be THE year?
  7. I find that article in the Times pretty funny, it seems like there are more than just a few people believing Hope is calling the plays. Whatever process he has for taking OC 'input' into his decision making on that end is working. Id be wary of any disruption to either of the two co-oc's and head coach as it might have a negative impact on our soaring offense.
  8. Despite their record they are going to have plenty of playing time opportunities, particularly on the oline.
  9. It was nice to watch a home game not played at 85 degrees+ with high humidity. Perfect football weather. USF played fast, executed and gave the crowd plenty to cheer about with monster plays. What an awesome game.
  10. Missed the game today, BUT managed to take many fab selfies so another successful Saturday in the books.
  11. As long as we aren't playing the Browns in the toilet bowl again this year it's an upgrade.
  12. Yes to all of this and also the lack of bonehead 15 yard roughness penalties. Actually even penalties along the lines seemed way down, what a difference it makes when you can stop shooting yourself in the foot and get your defense off the field when you make stops. But I agree the real difference maker is teams seem not ready to adjust we will actually take our shots and not just run,run,pass our way through the game regardless of situation.
  13. 17 wins the majority of games between these two so I'll say no. I'll say 16 to 13 is the final.
  14. Shoe repair shop still there. Yes. And for those who know, the Dillards store there for mens clothing is the tops. Generally the same product as their others stores but clearanced out. OTR Suit and jacket stock up location, no Bulls gear however.
  15. http://www.baltimoresun.com/sports/ravens/ravens-insider/bal-south-florida-cbkr-chris-dunkley-to-visit-ravens-patriots-bills-lions-20150418-story.html South Florida cornerback and kick returner Chris Dunkley told The Baltimore Sun that he will visit the Ravens next week along with the New England Patriots, Buffalo Bills and Detroit Lions. Dunkley is a converted wide receiver and Florida transfer who's also had a private workout for the Miami Dolphins and Patriots, and visited the San Diego Chargers and Atlanta Falcons. "It's a childhood dream," Dunkley said in a telephone interview. "It's crazy how it's finally getting closer and closer. My destiny is starting to come true." Dunkley played in the NFLPA Collegiate Bowl all­star game and participated in an NFL regional combine. Dunkley started 10 games at cornerback last season. At cornerback, Dunkley had 26 tackles, one sack, 1.5 tackles for losses and led the team with five pass breakups. He had one forced fumble and one fumble recovery. "I'm a real good corner," Dunkley said. "Some teams are still shocked thatI switched to corner my last year in college. I have better hips than a lot of guys who have been playing corner all four years in college. "I'm a very exciting player. I'm very good at route recognition because I played the postion before. I'm good at picking up routes. I know the splits. I know what receivers like to do." Dunkley had seven tackles, two pass breakups, a 41­yard kick return and a 24­yard punt return in his first game as a cornerback last season. He was an all­conference kick returner, averaging 24 yards per kickoff return and 8.5 yards per punt return. "Special teams are always an important part of the game," Dunkley said. "You can change the game in one play. Every time I touch the ball in the return game be ready for me to take it to the house." Dunkley started seven games as a junior and caught seven passes for 87 yards. He had 18 kickoff returns for 406 yards, returning a punt 50 yards for a touchdown. He also scored a touchdown on a reverse and named the Bulls' MostImproved Player. Dunkley transferred to South Florida in 2011 after redshirting at Florida while dealing with hamstring and academic problems. Dunkley served a suspension in 2012 for a misdemeanor domestic violence battery case that was resolved through a pretrial intervention program as a first­time offender with the charges nolle prossed by prosecutors. Dunkley was reinstated and earned back his scholarship after initially rejoining the team as a walk­on. Dunkley played at Pahokee High School and was named to the Under Armour All­American game after catching 103 career passes for 1,923 yards and 16 touchdowns. Dunkley was an all­state selection who caught 34 passes for 721 yards and four touchdowns as a senior and 40 catches for 596 yards and six touchdowns as a junior. Dunkley has been working out with Ravens safety Matt Elam in Boca Raton, Fla. Dunkley is friends with Elam and Ravens safety Will Hill, two former Florida Gators, and former Ravens outside linebacker Pernell McPhee, who went to Pahokee. "I'm best friends with Matt and real good friends with Will Hill," Dunkley said. "I've been training with Matt. That's my guy. He's ready to go this season, trust me. He's been working very hard to get ready." Dunkley has heard different things about his draft stock, but has gotten positive feedback from teams. "They've been watching a lot of film of me and I'm hearing good things," Dunkley said. "I'm learning a lot about the draft process. Some teams say I should be there to draft the third day of the draft. I'm just going with the flow and working hard and ready for whatever happens next. I'm hoping for the best and preparing for the worst."
  16. MOSI is a non profit and continually has money challenges but it's an asset to the area and isn't going anywhere. I never understood why USF didn't have more of a presence there but I guess that may be changing in the future. Also downtown properties are becoming more scarce and valuable going forward.
  17. The mental mistakes on offensive side of the ball by both coaches and players has to somewhat attributable to the complex, line shifting business of our scheme right? So now what if Kinnan and Willie simplify things to the point where a bunch of options are available from no huddle based on a handful of foundational sets? I'm grasping at straws here trying to figure it out but if HS kids can run a variety of the offense we are said to be pursuing, certainly USF can?
  18. For perspective on Rivals we are behind FAU and FIU but ahead of Michigan and UF. Cant put much stock in this yet,
  19. Just not much depth of experience to consider as someone who has 'done it' somewhere else with a successful track record. On paper in the SunBelt, well yeah ok. As this thread is titled 'something positive to say' I'll go ahead and stop now
  20. None of the coordinator hires in the Taggart era have necessarily been good on paper. They came here because of associations to the coach and his network. cosh was maybe the only one where it seemed like he should have done a lot better than his performance showed.
  21. I thinking you are saying we've had poor luck with coaches and in turn, we should soon get good coaches, having been so unlucky lately. What's more likely is that none of this is luck, but more a reflection of leadership in finding quality coaches that will out coach and out scheme our opponents. Given our level of competition and rankings of recent recruiting classes, the tools to be above average are there.
