Important to Charlie.  Big to Charlie.   Defeating SCSU does nothing for the program.  Its a "supposed to win" game.  All benefit to Charlie.  Not a big win for the program.  Nothing anyone will look back on.

CCS is a part of the program and what happens after this is what will determine what it is. If McCloud starts and becomes the next Grothe/Flowers it **** sure will be important for this program. You cannot know what this game is until after it happens. What if we lose and fire CCS this week? That's not important to the program? . I know this is part of the nostalgia agenda and all but there **** sure could be some important fallout directly from this game....

For me, as always, it's how we play the game. Winning should be an afterthought, but we've seen this before. If this game is not over by half time, IMO, he shouldn't even be allowed on the team bus going back to USF.

All coaching related.  No one will look back at this was the game that did Charlie in, or this was the game where Charlie "really showed his coaching chops".  We, the program, have been reduced to having must win games over FCS teams as watershed moments that have such impact.  It's sad, we're that far down.  We're supposed to win.  It would take a clown to lose.

Noticed you dodged that McCloud part.... 

 

Also it's silly to Divorce a coach from a program and it would definitely be framed as the game that did him in of he lost to a FCS school and was fired right after.

Only possible thing would be if he starts McCloud.  Other than that I agree.

Honestly, I don't think it's relevant.  Nine out of ten fans on this board would start McCloud.

But we aren't coaching USF.

So if McCloud starts and becomes a Grothe/Flowers impact type player for the program today won't be seen as important for USF?

Lol ok sure, Brad. 

Agree to disagree

In fact, if Charlie were smart, he'd play the McCloud card in order to buy himself more time.  If McCloud can show a glimmer of hope, Charlie's life gets extended.

So if it doesn't happen this game, but happens against SMU, that will be a watershed moment instead?

We're talking about a win over SCSU.  THAT WILL NEVER BE IMPORTANT regardless of a win, or the debut of McCloud as starter or Charlie wearing a dress.  

Unless we have really plummeted that far....
