I don't care who you grew up supporting, I don't care who you root for on the professional levels. The USF Bulls are your team." Haven't yet listened to the presser so if he did address that, never mind ..... And at the end of the day, that's probably what he is really saying without actually calling out those USF alumni that still drive to gainesville for a game, but not RayJay.

We could rip it apart on either side of the argument. I’m just happy we have an AD that will start the discussion. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Regardless of the way he put it, I've got to assume he's sharp enough to realize that this is priority number one when it comes to that aspect of the program ....

Not words. I’m gonna be optimistic. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

If he wants to try to convert Tampa Bay locals that root for another school I say, more power to him. Come on man, we turned a celebratory post about making pre-eminent status into a pissing match about who has the best idea of what is needed to get to P5. We can ruin anything.
