Harlan: Big year for team, Taggart

[JTrue]

So if we are at 70% renewal what were our season ticket numbers last year?

10. So far, 7 of them have renewed.

[BDYZR]

Q: How did the program go from a No. 2 national ranking and solid attendance in 2007 to where it is now?
A: I wasn’t here(TRUE),

so it would be unreasonable for me to speculate(TRUE).

But I can tell you the nature of college football has its ups and downs(TRUE).

Any program, outside of a handful, has had dips(TRUE).

I like to look at how fast this program (entering its 19th season) has come up in such a short time, how many bowl games it has been to, how many great moments it has had.(His opinion)

Look, we know we can do it.(Everybody's opinion) 

The great challenge, the thing that energizes me every day, is the opportunity we have to do that again.(Wouldn't expect anything less)

But make no mistake. We want to create the great program, not just the great season or the great game.(Wouldn't expect anything less) 

 

I'm not sure why anyone would question his answer.

 

My boss came into my office the other day and said, "I think we could do this different." Not a mandate, just a "suggestion".

So if you make a true statement about a subject other than what was asked, it's a good answer?

Sounds like a politician's dream audience.

You don't think Harlan is, to a large degree, a politician of sorts?

 

And why should he comment about actual reasons something happened 6-7 years before his arrival?  

[Brad]

1)Yes, at times he has to behave like a politician

2)He was asked the question

All I said is he could have provided a better answer.

The lack of objectivity on this topic is amazing.

The stupid arguing really sucks. The season can't get here fast enough. Let's talk about the McCheese State game some more

Can we just get back on topic here?  This wouldn't be a USF thread if we didn't totally have it hijacked with OCS talk. Someone show me that pic of Papa John's Stadium on the old tennis courts site. I haven't seen that in a few months.
