I am starting to wonder about the BB facilities. They are good but you should look at Houston and a few others in our conference. The one thing about facilities is that they become obsolete pretty quick in today’s college athletics.

Facilities are at least good enough to go .500 in conference

No argument here.  MK seems like a really nice guy and obviously he’s a good fundraiser, however, he will ultimately be judged by MBB and football.  He owns CJS and the jury is still out on that hire.  When he extended CBG, he bought all the stink that goes with it so if he ends up canning him next year he owns it.  Can’t blame it on the previous AD.

lol can you image if CJS goes something like 4-8 next year and CBG has his usual crapfest of a season? MK might go down as one of the worst ADs in the history of D1 sports if thats the case.

And those aren't farfetched scenarios either.

We should be .500 with outdoor courts.

Sad when you realize that 4-8 would give Scott a perfect 100% improvement rate for 2 years straight.

We had a combined 10 wins this year between football and MBB and we’re recognized as the absolute worst program in all of D1 for football and MBB.  Next year might not be much better.

It is so uplifting to read all of our projections , I find myself more and more wondering why I bother following this **** show.

This very well could happen.

Agree with the MBB analogy, disagree vehemently with the stadium take.  This is exactly what is needed to make this University relevant and less a commuter school.  The University will prosper and flourish as we perform tours and Saturday is buzzing with activity.  Would be nice if we started to win more than a game or two a year though.

Seriously?  Are you kidding me?  "The university will prosper and flourish as we perform tours and Saturday is buzzing with activity"?

You must first ask yourself "How many people do we lose when we move from RayJay to USF because they dont want to make the drive?"  It's more than you think.  Then ask yourself "How many more people will show up for this $h1t Show just because we have a pretty new stadium on campus?"  It ain't as many as you think.

USF must fix the product they are selling FB and MBB before worrying about new facilities.  There are A LOT of schools with better facilities that look like ghost towns because their product sucks too.  Why would USF be any different?  Oh I forgot, because it's USF.

Would a new showroom have saved Yugo?  Or FIAT? Or (insert failing / failed car brand with crap for product here) in this country?  No.

SO just how many more people do think will show up just because they build a new stadium on campus?  And how long do you think they will put up with this crap?

Agree. The two situations are different. For many years USF’s facilities were below par and that has to be fixed. In football an OCS and IPF were needed in order to compete and attract coaches and players. Basketball has good enough facilities to compete and is failing and there doesn’t seem to be a change under current leadership. 

The situations are not different.  How would things have been different with Coach Strong if we were sitting in a new stadium watching that crap?  How would they be different today if we were sitting in a new stadium watching the SS that has been the past two years?  I could be sitting in the Taj Mahal and if Gregory is still coaching next year I"m out. Same could be said for football.  It's expensive, time consuming and HOT to go watch college football in Florida in the fall.  The team's record matters more than everything else COMBINED regardless of whether it's FB or MBB.
