Idk I remember Denny Crum from Louisville basketball fame once saying something along the lines of us having the worst fans in college basketball, at the time I thought it was the nicest thing anyone ever said about us.

I'd argue that he saw the potential first hand during the 2007-2010. It's just a matter of if he's confident he manage the department back to that level interest/success and keep it there. And since he has done it once before he has to think there is at least a chance that he can do it again. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

He probably doesn't have a whole lot of options at high profile institutions. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Somebody is going to hire him at some point and I would prefer it to be USF. Then again our luck will be we hire some slub, Danny White leaves UCF for a better job after next season, and they hire Jurich.

Where does he stand now? Do most coaches, ADs and presidents believe he ran a shady operation at Louisville? It's all about who you know (that has money and power) in NCAA football. If there's a dark cloud over him, we don't need that. I have no idea; I didn't follow things that closely with how it all played out at Louisville. Let's say a P5 slot opens up in the future and Jurich is the AD. And one of the presidents says, "I'm not voting for South Florida because of you know who." Again, I'm speculating! I have no idea.

I also don't think he is hurting for dough right now: http://www.espn.com/mens-college-basketball/story/_/id/23538395/university-louisville-reaches-45m-settlement-ex-ad-tom-jurich-firing Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
