I’m with you, I am now officially on the Primetime bandwagon. You bring up great points about keeping Florida ties and laying his groundwork here rather than Colorado (for his eventual move to FSU). VPMK just needs to cut the $4-5mil check and be done with it. 

CDS has an energy and presence about him that I believe could resonant tremendously with a South Florida team and truly shake up USF as a program forever. IF he came in and spent at least 3 seasons here, (which would be doubtful with any success in turning around a very broken program -- any success will be a turn around at face value.) he could put us back in line for conference expansion with a recently successful program, a lot of new investment money pouring in, and the OCS opening. To throw back to my previously mentioned lottery ticket, it would truly be a jackpot hire.

I’d like Deion to be our coach. That said, I don’t want a crazy-ass narcissistic megalomaniac to be our coach. So maybe everything will work out as it should.

CDS 

Woah.  Let's pump the brakes here.  First, I had no idea who CDS was.  Second, can we call him Deion until we hire him.  I thought we only use the abbreviations on USF/ex USF coaches.

LOL, I refuse to believe any alleged breaking news from a man that glosses himself “Bubba the Love Sponge.” Call it “dignity,” “pride,” or “self-esteem.” Call it whatever you want. Deion may or may not come to USF, but I won’t be hearing it first from that dude. 

All of these years I thought his moniker was Bubbles the Love Grunge.

For sure. The energy you speak of reaches the older generation as well as the younger generation; and that’s hard to do. Deion oozes swagger and that’s something you can’t find. I believe he could help turn us into a new version of the “U” and if we were part of the next expansion, OCS and keep him over paid, he may stay here with only FSU luring him away, that would be the lottery win, which I would LOVE!!

This hire better be all about winning .

Tired of hiring good guys that can improve team GPAs and make sure nobody curses and goes to church on sundays.
