I think the fact that we don't get to see wins has gaslit us into some wild insanity where down is up. AKA a very 2022 human reality as the world collapses in on itself. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

AKA a very 2022 human reality as the world collapses in on itself. Totally agree on the record. It is abysmal. Totally horrific. No gaslighting here. I agree 100%. What I do see is progress and my feeling is that this progress will find its way into the W column in the next two games and once it starts we will frequent the W column more than the L. I’ve seen so much progress I believe, or maybe am hoping, that is the case. I’m choosing to get optimistic. I’ve seen teams get over the hump before and we have all the signs it is about to happen here too. Losing GB was a huge blow but I still think it’s possible without him.

At least they found ways to win 60 or 70 games against MLB teams. Hopefully we start seeing wins against FBS schools before the season is over Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
WoolyBully Posted October 20, 2022 Group: Bull Backers Topic Count: 194 Content Count: 6,786 Reputation: 864 Days Won: 3 Joined: 08/01/2000 Share Posted October 20, 2022 I spend my mornings hanging out with Miller & Moulton during my commute to and from scenic Lakeland, Florida, and one of the segments this morning was a discussion of Florida college teams, to include, the U of SF. One line that stuck with me was the comment that he (CJS) has done everything desired, except win games. He's good at hand shaking and fund raising, but the concern is that without the wins, interest will wane (ticket sales, donations, recruiting, etc.), so although there is improvement in some areas, there's still that one headliner area that's got work to do. One of the other points of discussion was the issue of firing a coach after three years, and the impact that would have on other potential applicants as well as recruiting. How does this make USF look? It's a delicate balance between the "win now" position and the open-ended project approach. It seems - according to the red-e-oh - that the administration is happy with CJS, the coach, but is painfully aware of absence of wins. The thinking is that Temple & Tulsa are the most likely (hey, could happen!) wins forthcoming and that's about it for the season. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I’m ok with it for now since the IPF became a reality and the OCS is still on schedule. The schedule was one of the toughest USF has seen in our history. The schedule should be easier moving forward but we lost our star QB. I will move my win prediction and reforecast to 2 maybe 3 wins this season. That is down from my original forecast of 6 wins or better: Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I guess that you (and those of us who have hung on to unrequited love the last half century) are merely fair-weather fans.
