All of those songs have been appropriated by other teams, and none of them have anything to do with USF or Tampa.

Fail

So flog me already, but good luck disowning me, lol.

Millennial's will deliver us over to Po-Pot style collectivism in the future, what a great generation.

I think the music programming is stale and needs some fresh creativeness. Personally, I would like more rock in the mix. Even some Classical stuff might work.......1812 Overture comes to mind. At least we don't seem to do the silly stuff that the Rays do.

Has anyone tried contacting USF Athletic Department or maybe even your season ticket rep. to find out who we could talk to about switching up the music?  It's great to talk about it on here, but has anyone been motivated enough to do anything about it?

Some Ticket Reps regularly post on here so they read the comments as well one would assume. ( my ticket rep post regularly) The music is fine as long as you choreograph it  with the Band, It should be played  before the game and  when the band is walking to their seats, Right before the half when the band is heading to the field for halftime, and when the band is taking a break.   Drowning out the band and fans from cheering is NOT the answer.  It makes us look like  a  JV league school or Arena Football.   It does very little to get the fans yelling and cheering.   Also I agree the HOT announcer is horrible and cheesy,  Has always been horrible.  I cant tell you how many people ( visiting fans/ friends) tell me how bad it sounds and makes us look.  " R U FEELING HOT"  "Away side" crickets, " Home Side " crickets.   Please make it stop.  Want to get the respect we deserve than lets start acting like a big time program in ALL aspects.

My guess would be to contact Marketing.  But just a guess.

We have attendance problems because people hate the creepy announcer.

Boom!

and Outlaws - Tampa, It was great seeing them play around North Tampa as a USF student.  And then seeing their success grow with time.  Funny I always thought another band I thought was better from those years that drifted off into obscurity, the Elders.  They were great but I doubt many remember them now.

And I thought UGa appropriated the Lobo song (Me and You and Dawg named Belue) back when Buck Belue was quarterbacking there.  Good song though.  I'll take it over Zombie Nation any day.
