Great read... The author's perspective gives me more faith in CWT's choice. I am hoping that Floyd is even better than CWT is imagining. Hoping... hope...

No one mentioned QB Floyd?

 

If you want to be the best, you have to beat the best. Something we don't have the opportunity of doing in current conference games.

 

You can never have too many Ric Flair quotes...  you may not like it, but you better learn to love it!   wooooooooooo!

 

I met Rick Flair.... The guy is a total douchebag. If he isn't treated like royalty - the dude has a brain aneurysm. I am not kidding - he threatened to fight me.  

"The Stampede" is the best title so far. 

I personally set my expectations low... and then prepare myself for shock & awe. Those upsets really do it for me! 

Wow, Floyd for QB causes a lot of contention on this board. lol

I do like the fan support, and we have to remember that last year we were 3 - 9. NOT, 0 - 12. Everything that I wanted to happen, has come through (especially after the Holtz contract extension). Our worst year is potentially behind us. I do believe that we are harsher on our program than say... Notre Dame fans in 2007.

We all unanimously agree on this topic. Tampa has terrible urban planning. 

I like the white helmets; looks cleaner - in my opinion. And apparently, it seems as though our colors consist of: Green and Gold primarily, alongside White and Black. Not offensive at all.

I don't know why you are all surprised. ESPN has been treating the conference this way since the formal transition to the AAC. And to be honest, I hope for great things to happen for Louisville; but I am worried that they may be overrated. Louisville can not afford to stumble on any AAC opponents given their 'easy' schedule.

Yes. And I can convert her OR influence her to transfer. 

I have tried sending an email to the production marketing group that created 'Get on the Bus - Taggart' video: (BullsVision)

But after nearly a month, there has been no changes to USF wiki pages. How about help from TheBullsPen?

Heading over late! 

Louisville aside -- If we beat UCF this year, would that be considered an upset? 

Thanks!

I don't know who Bobby Lewis is... but I am kind of excited about CWT's enthusiasm! I hope that his performance is on par (or exceeds) his energy.

(trolling)

1.) The heat during a noon game in September (which we usually win)...

2.) UCF fan telling me that it is a rivalry

Great video! I love it!

 

 

 

Trolls are getting active on the board. Negative USF comments from newer posters. Many started a year or so ago when they knew they were getting into the same conference.

 

So you're saying we have a sleeper cell of Kanigits on the board??

Not hard to figure out who they are when they post. Less than 2 years on board, low post count, passive aggressive posts, slide in negative OCS comments, occasional UCF positive comments, slam our team coaches programs campus school etc, but in a more subtle way. Throw in the occasional positive post about some benign USF related thing to keep from being ID'ed..... During recruiting, were quick to slam a possible recruit or parent of a recruit in hopes the recruit would read the board and get pissed. Yes, that happened a lot, go back and read those posts on the board closely.

I'd estimate we have at least 20 posters on here that are clear UCF sleepers trying to build post counts. I may sound paranoid but I am aware of at least a few UCF guys who spend a lot of their efforts on hating everything USF. UCF hardcore fans obsess over USF. Though we don't reciprocate, which pisses them off more. Need evidence, just look at the Grothe/UCF issues with him and his dad and texts to his cell. You cannot get 100's of texts from people, including threats, unless they obsess about you. Flip that circumstance around and it would not have happened from USF to UCF. 4 - 0 must bring out the best and worst in people.

Some of you may think I am paranoid. Maybe a little. But if you really look at it with an open eye and review posts for some of these folks, you will see what I mean.

Why do I care? I have been here since 2001 and enjoy a community of like minded USF supporters. Through good and bad, we have shared our opinions and love for everything USF related. We were under the radar, and things were good. But now we have an opposing fan base to the East who are in our conference and cannot seem to worry about their own program. To make their point, everything they do is in relation to USF. BHNS vs RJS, CUSA vs BE, GPA for entering freshman, etc..... It is like we are the benchmark they aspire to. We are like the little brother who over-achieved and they are the jealous big brother who didn't live up to the parents expectations. They cannot feel good about their program without finding something wrong with USF.

Okay, enough with my ranting. I just ask our true USF friends to keep up with "questioning" those posters who seem suspicious, because they probably are.

 

 

Don't worry incrediBULL, I love a little paranoia in the morning.

 

For real! lol

The only rivalry here is the discussion about whether or not we have a rivalry. So, about that OCS!? 

So the consensus is: White and Bench aside - we would prefer Floyd over Eveld?

 

 

 

 

 

 

And maybe they haven't improved. Nobody is talking about last year (unless being asked for stats). We are talking about what we've seen so far THIS YEAR and its been "meh" at BEST from both Floyd and Eveld.

 

Really? I didn't know you've been attending every practice. How did Floyd look on Saturday?

I have, right from your mom's house to the practice field everyday

My mom passed away several years ago.

Any smart alec or condescending remarks made by you will be met with equal or greater smart alec-ness or condescension.

If your mom is still around, she must be proud.

You boys have really mucked up an otherwise appealing thread.

 

Yawn... trophy for a forced rivalry... yawn. Let's blog about a game that 50,000 people do not care about...
