Eventually all of this greed will decimate the national fanbase.  The more exclusive they make the national championship process, the less fans they will have.  I am a USF fan, and I'm not going to pi

Everyone involved in managing our pathetic program over the past 10 years should be fired out of a cannon into the bay.

I think if we can get this to 300 pages the Big 12 will come begging for USF to join!

 

Need to bump it to 500 to be SEC caliber

Besides winning and seeking out more donors...

 

What could USF do to make themselves more attractive to the BIG12?

 

Spend more money in Athletics? Raise tuition contribution fees (i don't want that)?

 

Advertising? Special-deals with businesses to distribute tickets? Bully other AAC schools?

Big 12

No one knows what private conversations have been happening, but any time you ask any coach or athletic administrator, they say the same thing. Things like "we need to take care of ourselves" "we need to right the ship" "we need to get back to winning". At the minimum, I imagine we need to get back to averaging >45k in the stands, and getting to and winning bowl games.

 

Other things that will help include continuing to win academically, winning in non-football sports, and demonstrating some upgrade in terms of donations/facilities/etc.

Yada, Yada, Yada.... That's all great and stuff, but I want a golden goose NOW!

Winning multiple conference championships in the major sports will be the best way to get the Big 12 or any other conferences attention
