If we pulled off a miracle people would probaly rush the field. IF they show aau status announcement on the jumbotron you won't even get a clap from everyone usf fan in the stands. Aau status is great for academics but doesn't have any correlation to wins on the field. Edited September 11, 2023 by Outlaw Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I disagree...it's a huge accomplishment and should be celebrated at the university's largest audience during the year...which is a football game. I would have the band spell AAU at halftime with the U being the iconic U. Get the overhead picture and blast it everywhere. School needs as much good pub as we can get at this point. The school has always announced university and other sports successes at football games with good response from the crowd. We are one USF! 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

For the academics, research, and making money for the academic side AAU is great. The only conferences rumored to care were the dead pac or B1G. I don't see the B1G ever inviting USF over Miami or FSU. The last national championship with AAU status was Ohio State 2014 and then Florida in 2008. I don't think the majority of their fans care about it. They are two totally different parts of the school. I haven't heard one Bama, Clemson, LSU, Florida State, or Georgia fan mention man we really want AAU status or would trade their titles for AAU status.

If we are completely honest, many of us did not even know what AAU was until maybe a couple years ago however that is a pretty cool idea. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
