    USF Hires Weiner as WR Coach

    in USF South Florida Bulls Athletics

    Posted

    Make no mistake about this hire-- Weiner was brought in ONLY for recruiting. the "WR coach" is simply for semantics to get him on staff.

    it's a great move for Weiner. the reasons why he probably left for USF:

    1. even in this "WR coach" position, he probably makes more money than h.s.

    2. he doesn't have to move and uproot his family

    3. he makes in-roads for a coaching career in college football

    4. he's done everything he can at the h.s. level (4 state titles in 9 years!!)

    good for him and good for us!! but honestly, i can see him using usf as a stepping stone for another college coaching job.

    OMG, here we go again! I hope he is using us as a stepping stone, that means he wishes to be successful and advance in his career.

    Can't wait until we are known as THE place to come because you'll soon be moving on to a great promotion!

    i never said us being a stepping stone was a bad thing. it means he would be doing something positive here

    Big decision for Lance and his family. Seems like a smart guy who hasn't been given his shot to run the show yet.

    I was thinking the same thing... He's got a great gig at Stanford, that's a nice part of Cali, and he recruits for one of the top schools in the world, let alone the US.... I don't think its a situation that no one wants to come here, but I would have to think about it before I moved across the US to take a job that will take me away from my family even more....

    hell, I'm torn about taking a job in Virginia Beach due to the relocation..... not an easy choice I'm sure

    I agree but getting a shot at a DC position is a big promotion. Even if its at a nonBCS big east school. Just the upgrade in responsibilities enhances ones resume.

    I think you guys are looking at this wrong. This is a 17 year old kid. Look at when he first committed to USF, we where:

    -Big East favorites

    -Skip, who recruited him from the star, was still here.

    -Conference realignment was not an issue, the Big East was intact for the foreseeable future

    Since then, what has happened?

    -We finished a dismal 3-9

    -We have gone through a coaching change

    -Our conference is completely in the ******, and we're stuck

    Not everyone is like Christian Hackenburg and that doesn't make him any worse of a player, person or competitor. Maybe it is Kentucky, but right now the state of USF football is in much worse shape than the state of UK football.

    with the exception of their Conference, i don't think they are sitting any prettier than we are. They got a new coach just like us.. they will forever be a bottom-of-the-barrel conference team

    I made that comment about asiantii because I never believed the hype from the beginning. Just because he performed well in the Elite 11 competition doesn't do anything to wet my whistle. It's how he does on the field.. he led his team to a 4-6 season.

    Let him go.. another Carlton Hill if you ask me.. athlete that just so happens to play QB. Didn't his team go like 4-6 on the season this year? iF he was so good, he could have led them to the playoffs at least.

    Bring in Akeem Jones, give me a LEADER, not someone with a good 40-yd dash time and a rocket arm that performs well in skills competitions.

    I keep telling you all.. we gotta get strength in numbers.. 20-team league, coast-to-coast.. 4 divisions of 5 teams, with a 4-team playoff at the end.

    ...

    I really like this idea.

    the problem is revenue split, not enough to go around. IMO form a 10 team conference...all sports..come up with a championship game with the MWC...9/10 times the winner will go to a BCS bowl

    Thats what you don't understand-- you are thinking too short term. of course with the current contract intact, there isnt enough money to go around. but what do we do, just stand here and keep taking it in the behind?!

    my restructuring and creating of a coast-to-coast conference would be set up to create excitement across media markets across america for FUTURE television contracts. we can't think about NOW, now we are screwed. we gotta restructure for the future.

    thinking about now is like obama plugging a leaky fiscal boat with a bunch of chewing gum.. i say, screw now/this boat-- let it sink. let's start launching the safety boats, cut our losses, and reinvent ourselves

    What kind of schedule would we end up with?

    This is just a rough draft proposal-- but everyone plays each team in their division at least once (that's 4 games).. then 3 games vs 1 team in each of the other 3 divisions that you are not in: grand total of 7 games in the "Big America" conference. fill the rest of the games with OOC opponents/BCS conference opponents.

    at the end of the year, set aside 2 wks for a "Big America" final 4 playoff system.. winner most likely wins a BCS payoff bid.

    if we (big east) keep standing pat with their current generic conference model, it does no good. we gotta reinvent the conference NOT FOR NEXT YEAR, but for future years-- creating a buzz to attract a TV deal

    Leavitt - JOB 1 - Win the Conference - FAIL.

    Holtz - JOB 1 - Win the Conference - FAIL.

    Taggart-JOB 1 -Win the Conference - ???

    Leavitt - JOB 1 - Win the Conference - FAIL.

    Holtz - JOB 1 - Win the Conference - FAIL.

    Taggart-JOB 1 -Win the Conference - ??? **** Of course now it's also a completely different conference. 3 years ago, Tulane, Temple, E carolina, etc, would have been considered tune up games. Now, they are conference foes, meaning they can beat us! Quite a few steps backwards has this once skyrocketing program taken.

    There's never been a point in our history where 1A games like that would have, realistically, been considered tune up games ...

    I respectfully disagree. A few years ago, we would've been pretty heavily favored against any of those teams. This year AND MAYBE next and beyond, not so much.

    But I'm glad you guys are happy about the direction of the program. At least someone will be in the seats at RayJay.

    We recently lost our first game against a non-BCS opponent since joining the Big East.

    Going into those games we all had the expectation of a win, and I think that's what he meant. The expectation of winning is part of a winning culture, and I'm disappointed with the "we have to take our lot in life" mentality that some of the core posters/mods on this board have sunk to. That is NOT the mentality that Leavitt EVER had, and it's NOT the mentality that ANY successful individual or institution has ever had.

    GO BULLS!!

    +3 those games were most definitely tune ups. Even the bowl games where we played ECU Memphis and NIU I thought were relatively gimme bowl games.

    It is so sad as a fan base that some believe games vs ECU, Tulane, and Temple are no longer gimme games.
