@trishagureczny6: A Big 12 source told ESPN's Joe Schad that Texas, Texas Tech, Oklahoma and Ok State are all poised to join Pac-10 as early as Tues

I bet JTrue created that account

Coach T and I share the same birthday! Awesome! 

I'm trying to keep an optimistic view on Floyd starting. I have these images burned in my head of him fumbling what seems like every snap.

The fact that Taggart said the difference was night and day from Spring gave me hope. I trust Willie Taggart and respect his decision. I'd be lying if I said I didn't want Bench to start, but that's mainly because I've seen Eveld and Floyd and didn't like what I saw at that time. It's hard for me to imagine much worse.

Here's to revamped hopes and fresh starts!

Thought this may get everyone a little excited about college football. Can't wait for this year to kick off!

2:05 Rutgers RB schooling us :/

For those with ESPN3 access, if you have access to an XBox 360 there is a free ESPN app and its pretty awesome. you can split screen, etc.. The PQ is similar to what I get on Dish. For the TVs that I have that don't have an XBox connected I use the HDMI out on my laptop.

Agree. The ESPN app is awesome. They even have replays for some games.

Steven Bench sounds like he's making plays. Hope someone stands out

USF's Willie Taggart said freshman RB Darius Tice looked strong in Tuesday's scrimmage. QB Steven Bench had long pass to WR Andre Davis.

Classes start Monday...

Hey! We made it on Google News Sports section 

Anybody know if ESPNNews games are shown on ESPN3? I assume no, but one can hope. I don't have ESPNNews as part of my Prime HD Verizon Package, but I have access to ESPN3 which I have used numerous times.

Good read. Still waiting on a Smazza blog

I'd leave my tailgate to go to this and head back. The only concern is that it would be 2 hours before gametime. I'm sure there are lots of people who still aren't there at that time.

It's a good idea and a good initiative to start something at USF.

Taggart doesn't sound too happy with our QB situation either and I can't blame him if nobody has stood out yet. I hope someone can step up and appease him. I just don't see it in Eveld. I haven't seen much special out of him the years he's been here. Floyd makes A LOT of mistakes. Bench and White are unproven.

I'm hoping White is able to take a redshirt and Bench is able to step up and prove to be better than Floyd or Eveld. Because I haven't seen Bench much, I'm hoping he is successful and gets the starting job if he proves he can learn the offense.

Haven't had to worry about a QB in a while. I feel like we were spoiled with Matt and BJ. Here's to hoping we have a QB that at least performs decently well.   

Is this available on Brighthouse?

Yes, they do. Whether you have to pay extra, I don't know. For Verizon, You have to pay $10/month for what I think is a crappy sports package and the CBS station isn't even in HD.

I hope they stay on ESPN for my sake, but we should be able to watch them on Fox Sports 1 in the future when we join the B12 

I actually don't mind ESPN3 mainly because I can't watch CBS Sports in HD, but I can on ESPN3. My Xbox has an awesome ESPN app which let's me stream games and can actually watch two games at once if I wanted. You could always just hook your computer up to a TV via HDMI and view it that way as well.

@ExpansionRumors looks like they were just created on Twitter and so far they just look like a hub of other people's information like MHver3 and TuxedoYoda. I don't think they claim to have their own sources like The Dude, MHver and Yoda

Awesome pics. Hope the guys have fun today after a good week in Vero.

On a side note, how do you embed tweets on here to look like that? I tried earlier and was very unsuccessful

 

Its kinda a slap in the face to pay 40- 50 bucks a ticket per se,(plus the yearly donation) only to have some McNeese St, Miami or FIU fan sitting in front of you who pays 4 bucks.

 

First off, are they even selling tickets for $4?? I couldn't find anything about it  ... and considering the knucklehead who started the thread, the veracity is in serious doubt. Second, there's no way they're selling $4 or even $10 tickets in sections where you've got donors paying $40-$50, plus the BC donation ... That's the advantage of having the large capacity stadium. I completely agree with Jim's "butts in the seats" mantra.

 

Smazza was probably talking about Stubhub tickets: http://www.stubhub.com/south-florida-bulls-football-tickets/south-florida-vs-mcneese-state-8-31-2013-4252837/

Brad, how do you embed your tweets? I'm an idiot and can't figure it out

Heard from my Austin source. Phone conference early this week with all of the B12 members led by Bowlsby. Realignment related.#time4ucfusf

Irrelevant, an OCS doesn't matter. 

We don't know that it doesn't, but we could have the opinion that it shouldn't. This is now an outside presence talking about a USF OCS. Just got a kick out of it because fans think about it enough already. Now an outside source mentions it.

At work so can't copy paste twitter, but I'll type it in.

@MHver3 via Twitter: Might USF be considering an on or near campus stadium? Word today is that B12 not wanting schools w/o a dedicated stadium.

@MHver3 via Twitter: That appears to be USF's biggest hurdle if we go to 14

Disclaimer: If you guys don't know MHver3, he claims to be a WVU/B12 insider. I think he got the Maryland to B10 right months before it happened. But like all rumors, who knows how true this is, but I love these rumors even if it gives me false hope. At least we are being talked about

I believe in the dressed up green man. All hail Tuxedo Yoda! He alone has the force needed to get us out of the AAC.

Looks like the coaches had the players out on the field at 3am for practice and scrimmages. The coaches are on Twitter saying how well the players responded.

Players woke up to a sign that said, "GET COMFORTABLE BEING UNCOMFORTABLE"

The players seem to have taken it well and it put a little pep in their step. Andre Davis on Twitter, among others seemed proud of the fact they were up early and got in their scrimmages, etc. before sunrise

Gotta love the attitude of the team this offseason. I'm getting really pumped for the season to start!
