A simple biblical explanation of why God hates USF

[Blackice12]

This is by far is the most creative thread that I have read in while.

We are going to have to start sacrificing a bull on campus before each game.

I guess that's better than during the game.

It's right there on the USF Traditions website.  We have doomed since our we embraced our first mascot.  As we all know from Exodus 32 and that epic Charlton Heston flick The Ten Commmandments, the Lord has a real issue with golden bovine.  From the way I remember the story, he planned to kill all the fans of the Golden Cow but some of the true zealots (I think they were called the Levitts, or something to that effect) ended up offing a whole bunch of the others -- I would estimate about half of the season ticket holders.   I think that explains USF's athletic issues about as well as anything I have seen suggested.  And with that, I prophesy that we may be wandering around lost in the desert for a while longer.

 

"And the Lord plagued the people, because they made the calf...."

How the Bulls Were Born

With many different early name suggestions, the “Golden Brahman” was selected as the official mascot of USF in November 1962. 

I actually kind of dig this original mascot.

Really not bad at all for 1962!!  Maybe we should bring it back.

I think it took a few years before they fleshed out the version shown from what I've been told. My cousin went to USF before me and they were using that logo as late as the Charlie Bradley years (early 1980s). Then they dropped the golden part and revised Rocky's look and eventually -- we got the goat.

But yeah-- I wish they would make some throwback clothing items like that. All I have is a small towel like they used to handout at the football games.

Its a good idea, I would buy some of that old school stuff......its cool and something most people wouldn't have, so you would stand out.

I used to have tons of this (literally) old-school Rocky gear.   I remember one day in the early 1990s being out of town wearing a sweat shirt with this logo and someone pointed to me and said loudly with a big smile:

"CHUCKY ATKINS!"

You can find it on ebay from time to time...
