Student fees shouldn’t be used for intercollegiate sports.    If a student wants to donate to an OCS, then they should do it individually through a pledge to the Bulls Club.

lol **** that, I'm a current student here and that would be total bs to pay an extra 80$ a semester. I'd honestly rather us be a legit college and stop throwing money at amateur sports where, let's be

USF could always sit back and just wait for something to happen. Say anything you want to about UCF, but ANYBODY that's not envious of where they are full of crap. Good, bad, right, or wrong. Foo

I'll take his history over your opinion of his style every time.  There is so much more going on than any of us know.

We could have the Tony Robbins of AD's, and I still think he'd have trouble extracting more donations from our fanbase. We seriously have a "cultural" problem. The Daily Stampede just did an article analyzing a small student survey they just did. The students' stance on donating to USF as alumni is quite eye opening. Small sample size, I know.

I agree, relative to the stadium, it is a problem and perhaps there is no AD around who could whip-up the masses...especially due to the G5 classification. But getting an on campus practice facility should not be this big of an issue...especially if it is downgraded to just the field with a cover.

No... but I'm actually friends with him and on a first name basis since we met at UCLA. So when you're being a smart ass, know what you're talking about.  But don't be sorry I'm not related to him, but I know him and his family smart guy.

The only reason I came back at you was that your tone on “my opinion” was pushy. But if you want to go at then let’s do this. Awesome! You know him and his family. Have a cookie...it means nothing to me. I could care less what the man did at UCLA it means nothing. He has alienated donors and fans greater than any benefits he has provided. The small pay increase in his updated contract is there for a reason. At least this new contract spells out explicitly that he is now responsible for fundraising for the athletic program. Your friend is on the clock let’s see what he produces.

Dude you are literally the definition of a smart ass. Literally I don't know if I've ever seen you post on here or any other site without being smartass about something/towards someone.

Wouldn't the IPF and football center be the largest amount of money we've ever spent on anything relating to athletics...ever? If that's him not doing his fundraising job as AD, you're not going to be happy with anyone.
