Playing in a super regional in baseball gets you more name recognition than being in the US News top 25..  Someone should tell that board that.

I'm thinking the board's goals are a lot less superficial than "name recognition". If that's all they're after, they need to take a serious look at beefing up our Twitter presence ...

Idk, I’d kill for someone to not confuse USF with our brethren to the east in the swampland of central Florida.

On the bright-side, most of the clients I deal with out of the Northeast, Midwest or West Coast don’t differentiate between USF and UF/FSU/UM, so we got that going for us…which is nice.

It's usually a double edged sword when I get that confusion when I'm in other parts of the country. Goes some thing like "Aren't you those guys that made up that natty??", doubling over with laughter ...... I set them straight and a nice conversation ensues.

Up here they do recognize the U on our helmets. But I do have to say “USF,” when I say “South Florida” they have no idea...they think it’s a retirement center.

BS, the hicks up there are unfamiliar with any school south of Nashua, actually they are unfamiliar with any schools in general.

😂😂...how the **** you know about nashua? 😂😂. You are a man of international intrigue. But seriously, check out the demographics of Amherst, NH. I am surrounded by Ivy Leaguers and BC/BU alumni.

I was stationed at Ft.  Devens for a couple years, used to frequent the Mall there, really close, also used to hit the bars in Fitchburg MA, good ole Fitchburg State.   Used to crash at my buddies GF apt in Leominster.  I know there is no shortage of educated chowder heads up there, just breaking your balls.

I never knew that though you probably told me at the GT game. You made it out of Fitchburg alive, well done!

That was not exactly an Ivy League school from my recollection of some of the women I hooked up with, for them to have even hooked up with me at all was an indication they were not too bright.  I picked up 12 credits at Mount Wachusett CC while I was there. So I guess you could say I was educated out east😀 and am one of the scholars you are referring to.

    We've talked about getting back to being the toughest, most violent people out there. Let's be the best version of ourselves and really get back to the culture of how we (USF) used to step across the line and play anybody. Let's hold on to the culture of when they were tough … and they (opponents) knew it was going to be long damn day for themselves.
