I know people like to bash me for suggesting the portal should be used to patch positions, but Strong admits it on the press conference. If he gets another year,  he needs at least 10 players from P5 to fill the following positions, while he develops younger players.

1. QB

2. RB

3. LB

4. Safety

5. OL

6. DL

 

Just think, some of you suggested that Sawtelle was better than Macon. LOL

Grades for portal transfers:

Macon B+

Studstill B

Sails B

Slade B

Jones Incomplete

Rygol...need to see more of but seems to be a solid backup that probably better than current starter. 

Thaxton Incomplete

If you can’t coach then talent doesn’t matter.

You mean we are not also looking for a kicker?

No one ever denied that the portal exists. No one ever denied that we use the portal.   No one ever denied that we should use the portal.  People have denied that the portal can save the team from bad coaching, bad recruiting and bad player development. You think it’s possible to build a program around a garnish and it quite simply isn’t possible, at best it can help to enhance a dish that already has a solid entree and side dish.

Are you Bi-Polar? That's an honest question from a concerned board member.

I have no problem with using the portal to pick up some talent that otherwise we would not have. However, I think the questions everyone should be asking are:

 1. This is your third season at USF, why have you not been able to develop young players during those 3 years?

2. What are you going to do differently this time around to lead others to believe you are going to develop young players when you haven't been able to develop anyone in your 3 seasons at USF?

Honestly, at what point do we finally cut our losses and fire CCS? After SMU would have been perfect. Bell could have become the interim head coach and we could have had a trial to see how he would do as a head coach. If nothing improves, then hire outside. If the team seems to take some steps forward under KB, then hire him officially as the head coach.

CCS would rather have another Portal, than an IPF.
