There are things that need immediate attention within our University.  We can all agree that an OCS isn't the elixir or cure all, but it does present us with something to rally behind.  It gives us the hope that we are turning the corner away from being that so called commuter college.  It brings a fresh breath of life into the campus that has deprived some many students over the years of what a game day feels like.  We need to create a deeper connection between our University and the entire Tampa Bay community (including the satellite campuses), and it is going to take more than an OCS to fix that.  These articles that have surfaced over the last few days, take them with a grain of salt.  It is not important who is right at this time, it just matters that we get it right.

I agree. I've said all I can say on this subject. Unless somebody comes at me for being positive, I have no further comments or opinions on the negative nancies on this board. Everybody deals with unsatisfactory times their own way and they have a right to do so.

We are in year two of this specific journey but 25 years into our journey but I’ll even play along how many examples would you like where people came into year 1 of a 4 win or less team and did better than the person they replaced in that very same year? If we measure it in reality of this being year two the list is endless and while sometimes people miracle things to better after years of failing the vast majority of coaches that start like this end up fired before the end of their first contract.

You still "contributed" so I don't care if you didn't read it. Not reading the awesomeness I provided is YOUR LOSS my friend. Stay blessed big dawg. 

I like the fact you think I can contribute to anything on this site. Oh crap, am I starting to sound like Puc?

He is an older guy who probably got into his cache of high quality bourbon.  Who could blame him after last week's debacle?

My high quality bourbon collection is dwindling. Florida is a desert for buying good stuff and I'm tired of buying secondary market stuff.

@Gatorbull325,

I won't read all the responses, but wanted to thank you.  It is so much healthier to be positive and optimistic.  Unfortunately, the internet rewards negativity, porn and great meme makers.

The Bulls crowd has had it rough.  I hope that individually each is of strong enough mind to pull themselves up from the darkness of perpetual doom.  Don't make currency out of negativity and cynicism.

I too have struggled with the failings of this program and our school.  But I return, I stay on board. I refresh (more than once).

If all one can do is contribute negative tripe, they really should think of inviting other things into their life in place of USF Football.

So, thanks for the positive thought.

Go Bulls!
