It's been quite a ride so far.

It only seems like yesterday when we were talking on this board about entering C-USA. :)

Looked at some of the stats of the other schools

School                   Founded              Enrollment

UC                         1819                    34K

UConn                   1881                    18K

DePaul                  1898                    24K

G-Town                 1789                    6K

L-Ville                    1798                    21K

Marq                     1881                    11K

ND                        1842                    10K  

Pitt                       1787                     32K

Prov                     1917                     4K

Rutgers                1766                     34K

St. John's             1870                     17K

SHU                      1856                    9K

USF                      1956                     41K

SU                        1870                     10K

Vill                        1842                     6K

WVU                     1867                    22K

When you look at how long some of these schools have been around it is amazing that we now stand as equals with them.  For a 50 year old school, USF has made unparalleled strides.  Way to go BULLS!!!

Interesting we are referred to as USF everywhere - not a "South Florida" in sight.

You know these stats say quite a bit about USF and UCF.  First off, congrats on the BE.  We are happier than hell to be out of the ASUN and in CUSA.  I am sure you guys feel the same.

Looking at the data above makes me realize why both our schools have a hard time with attendance issues.  This really are no excuses for not showing up at our respective games.  However, USF is almost 40 years younger than the next oldest school.  Now I know some of those schools are small but when you have enrollment in the 15-40K, 40 years is a hell of a lot of alumni.  And that makes more fans coming to the games.  In time, we will both have attendance numbers like the other schools.

I think age has quite a bit to do with it.
