It's like they all sat in a room and discussed how they could make fans happy with the least amount of effort. I think is more than for the fans. Every time that I asked about an OCS, I always got the reply RJS is fine BUT if we ever need to build an OCS to move up it will be built. This if they follow thru is a big signal to Big12 and maybe something that it was discussed with them. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I grew up in Miami and they NEVER had an on campus Stadium and still won many National titles. Hell their current stadium is like 30-45 min drive from campus. Ive worked security at UF football games as a student and the MAJORITY of people that went to the games were NOT students. Ray Jay is waaaaaaaaaay nicer than most college stadiums Ive been to and its ONLY 10 miles away from campus. Kids can uber or catch a lyft out there. At most USF should simply have a shuttle service. This has to be the most overated "need" that USF has. I promise you when I say most people, recruits, players or fans dont care about a stadium. Plus Ray Jay is a nice stadium. We just need to WIN GAMES period. If you have to cite the exceptions then you’re fighting a losing battle. Also, Miami is kind of in trouble, they’ve been in a long fade. Just Google them, it’s not a good time to be a Hurricane. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

If we want to move up to the big boy table we need to show a full on commitment to the program. I guess we could wait for National Championships (real ones) to get that buzz like the U did or we could show our commitment by moving towards an OCS. You want to build a culture, then you have to start doing things to build it other than put your hand out and say please sir can I have some more.

Exactly, because their "culture" was built on winning championships not an intrinsic, cultivated love for the program/school Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

They’re probably monitoring this board and saw that easy way out. Fans shouldn’t be happy at all until we beat an FBS team Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It is such a shame that it has taken this long. I'll reserve full judgement for when we actually see the plans he is referring too. Until then it is lip service. Curious... For projects like these, does USF enable donations that are locked to a specific project/purpose? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
