This is what the OCS opponents don't seem to get. Ask SMU how they feel about their OCS and the invite to the Big12 - or any other team not getting an invite. Our lack of money and following is the biggest problem IMO. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

But UCF should do well for 4 to 10 years while it does last. Hopefully by then we will be watchable again. IPF is still the right move. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Bottom line, not enough people with deep enough pockets have cared enough about USF football up to this point ..... maybe this rattles the cage. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I don't believe we have a bunch of filthy rich people that have been sitting on the sidelines just waiting for this moment to step up and donate big bucks.

It's not just that. It's also stating that you are going to build it so they will come and provide incentives. Start lining up corporations, private donations. Allow me to pledge only for that specific thing. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Where’d they go? I'm unsure if the number of Iron Bulls is higher now as compared to then. But I was talking about difference makers. Like build a stadium kind of wealth and thinking, oh my they really need it now. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
