With my investment I have met and made lifelong friends. I have seen their babies grow in to wonderful young people. Had some amazing meals at tatilgates. ETC, ETC, ETC...

Well said! The memories are priceless! To me that is more important than winning the AAC. I hear people joke about shutting down football and that gives me a bad vibe as to me that should not even be joked about. There are so many people that worked their tail off and gave all they had to get football at USF. LRS would be rolling in his grave if he heard jokes about shutting down the program.

The bottom line is support with what you can. Whether you support by showing up to games or watching on TV/Radio, that is pretty cool with me. Donate/invest whatever you feel whether it be time or money. Without USF football life would not be as awesome!! Go Bulls!!

Well said my friend! 🤘I was just thinking about this tonight as I was deciding which hoodie I should wear tomorrow (deciding which one is most lucky). Glad I have a game to watch tomorrow.

As hard as it is for me to write but Collin nailed it with the article and anybody downplaying it or calling it some kind of fake panic is just burying their head in the sand. Our Athletics donation levels have been a joke in comparison to most of our conference, both previous and current, mates. Anybody wanting proof can go to this site to take a look for themselves, public schools only I think. I screen shot our chart starting from the BE years thru last year. The chart below it is our opponent this week.

I think a lot has to do with the relative youth of our football program and the corresponding "youth" of our football era alumni and some has to do with the naivete of a portion of our fanbase about the lifeblood of college athletics ..... if this board is any kind of a microcosm of the overall base.

Can Charlie donate his whole salary this year to the IPF to show fans he is serious about turning this around? It will be a nice tax write off.

Save your $$ for when Kelly has to re-sign Brian Gregory. There’s a worthy investment.

Good lord am I hearing that some on this board want to put our athletics before our academics?

How ever will we be able to pay our players if we don't?
