Adjustments, Pressure. no offense but this reminds me of.... Chubbs: Golf requires concentration and focus.Happy Gilmore: Golf requires goofy pants and a fat ass. You should talk to my neighbor the accountant. Probably a great golfer. Huge ass. just replace golf with bowling and goofy pants with a plate of nachos and you're all set. http://www.bushwood.net/gilmore/happy007.JPG Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Unfortunately, I think the next closest D-1 lacrosse school would be somewhere in North Carolina. There are a few prep schools in Miami that play lacrosse.If USF is going to add something my vote would be swimming/diving as it is a better fit and I believe we had a very good program at one point...

Adjustments, Pressure. Alright, but so does being a top 100 player in ncaa football 2005. Concentration is key. How you hold and use the controller matters. How you adjust to your opponent can decide games, and when you play another top 1000 player, there's a hellva lot of pressure.I am currently "only" in the top 500, but I've been as high as 38th. Does that make the GAME a sport?Games are games, and both bowling and the video game are examples of terrific quality games that require skill. Still doesn't make them sports.

Either one of those would be fine, because the skirts would be cool. Or swimming for obvious reasons. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Start with the women to keep all the Title IXers happy, add Men's later if at all. I don't much get into the Women's Soccer or Basketball as I am used to the competition, strength, speed and athleticism in Mens sports (okay, boo me). In a sport like Diving, the requirements for such are much more level. Men and women's diving has equal appeal (lean to the ladies ) compared to Men and Womens Basketball. Call me what you will, but that is the sole reason I would select Diving and Swimming over a Women's Field Hockey or Lacrosse team. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

There was a possible sponsor who was willing to put in ice, it turns out it was a few feet short, and the way the Sun Dome is set up would not allow us to remove rows.As awesome as it would be for the Ice Bulls to become NCAA, the closet school is Huntsville and other teams would need to make the jump also. Title Nine also holds us back.www.Icebulls.org for the Ice Bull site, and if you want to sponsor or donate so that the team can purchase one of three items much needed (all tax deductable with great gifts for donating (jerseys and such)) then email USFICEBULLS@AOL.com Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
