  1. Actually... It happens quite a bit. So which coaches stepped down in the past year with a buyout? Tressel resigned at Ohio State and likely received a settlement. Let me clarify. What coach not at the middle of a scandal resigned. IE resigned over their record. http://www.herald-di...hall-University http://sports.espn.g...tory?id=3742934 So it doesn't happen all the time. Those stories are from years ago. Since then 1000000 coaches have been fired. Monte Kiffin this week. Obv not a head coach but a resignation nonetheless.
  2. In the long run, walking away from the buyout money will cost him a lot less than having a "Fired from USF" on his resume.
  3. On several occassions the Dome was rockin tonight. Tonight was my first game of the season. It was a great experience indeed. AC is a phenomenal ball handler!
  4. Wish Holtz would've lit his fire after Ball St but I'm afraid even a big win tomorrow will do little to improve his standing with the fan and media.
  5. Lol i like the part about beating "compete" to death
  6. Can't wait to find out if Holtz is going or staying. Interesting rumors about Jimbo Fisher but I highly doubt he'd leave FSU.
  7. Totally agree but it doesn't help that 9/10 pedestrians I see crossing that stretch of Fletcher are jaywalking.
  8. Those are definitely important qualities in professors teaching undergrads.
  9. Those giant, free online classes offered by schools like MIT, Yale and Stanford are called Massive Open Online Courses (MOOC). Some schools are considering offering credit for these courses. Interesting read here: http://www.nytimes.com/2012/11/14/education/moocs-to-be-evaluated-for-possible-college-credit.html?_r=0 To my knowledge, USF doesn't offer free online courses but I've seen some free audio lectures in iTunes.
  10. I grew up in Merritt Island. I saw so many Shuttle launches I used to sleep through some. Dumb me!
  11. Good post. After independently studying economics for some time now, I'm still on the fence about the minimum wage. On 1 hand, it provides employees with a minimally acceptable standard of living. On the other hand, it discourages employment in economic situations where market conditions aren't willing to pay the minimum wage.
  12. I don't follow bball too closely. Can somebody explain what happened with Jones' career?
  13. If we promise to leave UCF in the Big Least, can we come with you guys?
  14. Southern Miss wasn't ranked in the pre-season. I think we'd probably lose on the road to at least half of the teams ranked 75-99.
  15. I agree Is it bad that I'm more excited about next Monday than Saturday?
  16. Sidenote: The "2 INT" argument can be better phrased as: no interceptions in 11 of 12 games this year (assuming we don't pick off Pitt).
  17. I'm an outraged Marlins fan and I live in Tampa. I can only imagine how deceived the locals feel right now after funding this mess.
  18. Couldn't believe it when I saw that. I hope, for her sake, the marriage doesn't last long.
  19. You bring up a great point about Woolard believing in him, or being too stubborn. In either case his job becomes more in jeopardy if Holtz is retained. +1
  20. After FSU, I thought we'd finish 7-5. After Temple, I knew we'd finish 3-9 at best. IMO we have no chance against Pitt. I'll still be in attendance though :/
  21. Doe anybody know if he's been asked about not going for 2 against UC?
  22. When 2 top 10 defense face off, the team with the better offense usually wins. Noles by 10
