  1. They sued Southeast High School in Bradenton. Apparently FSU dropped the suit, or there was some type of settlement because they still use the spear on their helmets and the screaming Seminole logo. I'm not sure if they updated it for this year as FSU updated their own logo. 

  2. My understanding is that the IRS is being kind by not forcing any food or housing supplied to athletes to be considered income, as it isn't an educational expense. I think we are all aware of how long the IRS's kindness lasts, and unionizing/being deemed an employee would certainly be poking the hornet's nest. This move could come back to bite all college athletes if it stirs the IRS into enforcing housing and food athletes receive to be claimed as income.

  3. no veteran coach would come aboard and have a minor role

     

    we better get talent in here because the coaching sure wont win many games

     

    Jason Kidd removed Lawrence Frank and the Nets improved. It is possible that our young coaches are the "talent" needed to win. Of course they may be a complete mess which is par for the course with USF athletics. 

  4. It's pretty impressive to see the reaction of UK fans.

     

    Generally their posts say they are upset to see him leave, but wish him the best of luck because they all knew this day was coming. Many are openly wishing he stays on throughout the UK's time in the tournament. I don't think any of the other candidates had this much positive energy surrounding them. 

     

    No matter what he does with this team, I will always think this appeared to be the right hire at the time it occurred. Normally I am down on Genshaft, but she and Harlan pulled this one out after a disastrous start. 

  5. Pearl is out. He cant come back to activities until August, and USF will not wait until August to make that hire. So with that, Pearl is out!!!! - Kevin O' Leary from Shark Tank voice

    Are you certain Mark Harlan feels the same way? If he wants to make national headlines in his first month on the job hiring Bruce Pearl would do that.

  6. Great. 

    He secured a lease at an off-campus venue, but fans here clamor for an on-campus stadium.

    He helped to sabotage his own side in coach negotiations as few coaches would want to leave UCLA if they were doing well enough to get poached. Firing Alford became very costly.

     

    To think, I was starting to get optimistic about USF athletics after seeing Mike White actually complete a pass.
