I believe this needs to be a priority for USF over and OCS.

How many teams have an indoor practice facility and not an on campus stadium?  

Go Bulls!

How many teams needed an ocs before even thinking about building an ipf?

Where are the dollars going to come from?   Are you an Iron Bull, or just expecting other people fund your desires?

Fund my desires? Lol. I wish I could afford to give more. I do donate a small amount annually, though. I was just saying how it sucks that other schools seem to be able to get the "plastic surgery" to become the sexy option.

The difference a great season can make. All this is possible for us if we win big and consistently, and we seem to be on the right track with the new athletics leadership

usf cant compete with oil money

hillsborough county and the state  needs to increase taxes on tourist items

maybe money can trickle down to usf

how can you justify pouring money when we play in the lower tier

it is absurd we dont compete in the same iter as the big 3

Sounds like a catch-22

That oil money may be going away for a while. Tampa will see tourism money and increased shipping as travel and transportation costs are lower. Need to start reaching out to big shippers for money.

Houston used to be a member with the big boys as in the old SWC before it blew up so they're tired of life at the kiddy table and are putting a full court press on to get back there.

Not sure how long u have been following USF football but we too were part of the so called Big Boys when we played in the Big East ( what was known as a power conference with an automatic BCS bid to one of the Big Bowls).  USF needs to be going "full court" as well if they are not ( which we don't really know).   USF has typically kept their intentions close to the vest in the past.  With that said don't be surprised at what Harlan and Judy are working on behind the scenes. (have to figure they are on top of the situation).

I'm well aware of our history I was there from the KW game to the present including AU and El Paso, I was just trying to educate those who think that Houston is a new be. I too believe the administration is working behind the scenes to get us back into a meaningful conference.

Thanks for the clarification.   Interesting times ahead that is for sure, (Esp with all the other schools making their wishes known publicly)(Cincy,UConn and Houston).  Hopefully you and I are correct and our Administration isn't sleeping at the wheel, Time will tell.
