If they feel compelled to go because they like the match up, love the bulls or want to spend the night out at a game they will show up.

I am not sure you can manufacture demand that has any staying power with, I don't know, free beer.

We need our alumni and base of fans who grew up with USF football to get older and more abundant.

Likely because I recall him predicting "under good authority" or the like that Cincy & Memphis were in.

He's a Cincy homer, so I'd take anything he says with a grain of salt.

Yea, I got that impression but his doubling down is getting desperate.

1.  There are already provisions in the contract which state how much money will be added for each new team.

2.  Why on earth would you purposely negotiate a reduction?  Do you go to the car dealer and ask them if they will accept a dollar amount above sticker?

Because ESPN has threatened to sue if they expand by 4 teams.

Has anyone noticed that ESPN still lists USF and UCF below Temple in the conference standings even though Temple lost. I wonder if ESPN is revealing it's hand?

Several of the other conferences are also weird like that .... just more ineptitude.

Ahem, this is a realignment speculation/rumor thread. I'd appreciate you reserving your facts for other threads.

I'm trying to start a rumor here!

They have some history though,  including playing for a NC in the 80s if memory serves.   

Yes

This obviously has no place on a rumor and speculation thread, but how do we get the community to show up?  Being out of town I get to one or two games a year, but would contribute to helping get people in seats.  I understand that if you give people free or highly tickets you build behavior that leads to them expecting it and not purchasing at full price, but being such a young program we have to continue to build a base.

Game day, the "official" paper of the BULLS, by default. In a small box announcing game times for all Florida schools is the ONLY mention of Bulls football in the whole sports section section.

Please don't hand me any BS about not being their responsibility to promote the BULLS, yes it is. Certainly a hell of a lot more than UF and the frigging ACC!
