Never did see his "response" ....... but I could only take so much wading through all that.

I think his ROFL was to the mock up of a green RayJay.

Not a USF fan, but I look forward to watching you all join the P5 or P3 soon. Building an OCS is just another sign that USF belongs at the top level. Miami and FSU must be pissing themselves at the thought of you and UCF being at their level. Would not take long before they only could offer ancient history over you.

I was in Tampa recently and was surprised with how your city embraces the university. Even with several successful pro sports teams. 

I noticed a lot of redevelopment downtown, assuming part of the Vinik play? As an outsider, that would be a real fun location for a 40k-45k stadium.  I've been on U of Tampa's campus to for bowl prep, and always thought it would be amazing if USF bought that school back in the day.

Apologies, back on topic. Hopefully you can get more P5 teams to schedule you in the meantime.

Can't wait to see the renderings . . .

If we could get the Bandits and/or Vipers to lease out the stadium in the spring that could be a great additional revenue stream. Granted thats conditional on either of those leagues being around in 5 years

Meetings | Board of Trustees | University of South Florida

BOT agenda is up for next Tuesday. These agendas contained the info on where the stadium location will be. If the agenda for the June 15th meeting is going to have the rendering on it then I'd assume the rendering will get released officially by the school in some manner just before the agenda goes up a week in advance.

If that's the case I think we get the renderings sometime between June 1st and June 8th.

Praying we use our Vinik connection and have a commercial during one of the lightning playoff games in the conference finals with huge ratings of Jim Leavitt narrating the birth of the program, then Jeff Scott joins him to show off "Jim Leavitt field at _____ Stadium".

Hey, a man can dream...

I like this idea.

It's destiny.  I filled in the blank.

Outback Stadium. I think, if we can, get a nationally known name. They just dropped sponsorship of the Outback Bowl.

Pepsi dropped the Super Bowl and will be utilizing Twitter / TikTok, etc more to get every day exposure around the world.

Okay I'll take it but, Publix would be more awesomer.

Deadline for the agenda to be up is tomorrow. Doubtful we get a rendering on the agenda but we may get other details on the stadium. Seems like today would be a possible day to release it through a tweet though to get the pictures out before any details on the agenda have people speculating

Still hoping Vinik lets us announce it at the Lightning game tonight or on a commercial for it. Game 1 averaged 2.36 million viewers because that New York market. That would be way cooler than tweeting it out to our 136,000 followers
