I used to think this as well. Then I saw how BYU was doing.

BYU has little to play for. As soon as they lose one game the best they can do is a crappy bowl...even worse than Birmingham.

It would be worse for us if we went independent.

Considering that we would be booted out of the AAC for all other sports that would be absolutely true.

utah went undefeated in 2008.  Won the MWC title and won their bowl game.  They were the only undefeated team, but since they were from a “non bcs” conference (equivalent to today’s G5), they were not recognized as national champions.   They made lots of noise in the press, and even their senator joined in.  Within a couple of years they were in the PAC 12.   So from that standpoint, I totally get why Orlando is doing what it is doing.

Any brick or bomb thrown at the corrupt system is fine with me. Noise needs to be made.

Noise is okay, so long as they don't similarly reward the kaniggits with a promotion. I'd hurl for sure.

Boom. MLK gets it. He'd be all for us demanding excellence, too.

I'm not falling for anything. There may have been a point to make but they took it too far and made a mockery out of it ..... and I still find it disturbing that there are Bulls fans thinking this whole scenario was a good thing for USF. It wasn't.

I’m sorry, but we need to back our brothers play. If we have people pulling against the AAC succes then USF will never move forward. How can you sit there and say that UCF’s success does not help USF?? They are actually making us get better. It may not look like it now, but you will see the difference soon.

I would back my brothers play, but  UCF doesn't fit that description. I don't care what conference we belong to.

Anything that gives the Kanigits a higher profile than us does not help USF. USF's success hinges on USF and forces beyond our control ... and please don't trot out that urban legend about us being a package deal come next realignment.  Also, don't have a clue how them doing this makes us get better .... that's make no sense. Have we not been really really trying before now to be as good as we can be??

  • Quotes

    "There is no inherent fear among this group of players. The fear of failing drove the program from day one - the fear of failing the coaches, the fan base, the university, each teammate, themselves. Now, as we head into the biggest game in our history at home on a national stage against the highest ranked team to step on OUR field, the players are taking an introspective look at themselves. Unfortunately, I don't know if they get it. They lack the fear."

    Terry Lucas, 09/26/22
