a) how much money is this costing and who the heck is funding?

B) How many big east wins will a bond trip to Italy produce?

to see them play?  Trips like the one you are talking about usually occur in August.  All players on the team this year who have eligibility left can play on the tour.  That means that Williams, Granberry and Verdejo can play.  Howard and Cann can play too if they are healthy enough.  Jones and Holmes cannot play since they are seniors with no eligibility remaining.  Also, new signees, like Curry who are not presently in school cannot go on the trip.

We could really use a tour like this to help integrate Verdejo, Granberry and Williams into the team.  It would be especially helpful if Howard and Dennis were completely healthy.  I doubt Cann will be ready by August.

Verdejo cannot play til December, which mean barring pass from NCAA he cannot participate in the games.

Hey everyone:

The Italy tour begins on August 11th.  We are currently putting together packages for those interested in traveling with the team.  This trip is being funded from contributions and the proceeds from their annual golf tournament.  No state funds.

This type of trip is very imporatnt for a young team.  It gives them an extra couple weeks of practice which could help winning games in the BIG EAST Conference.  That's about 12 extra practices before everyone else can begin.

Once the packages are done I'll let you know and see if anyone is interested.

Eric

Eric, do you have a roster yet of all the players that will be going?

Brad, what happened to your thread that was stickied up top explaining about what will happen to the off topic, ******** and moaning posts on here? Apparently, some have a retention problem.

Please feel free to delete this one also after your response.   ;)

I felt it was there long enough for even the slower folks to read and comprehend, perhaps not.

    We've talked about getting back to being the toughest, most violent people out there. Let's be the best version of ourselves and really get back to the culture of how we (USF) used to step across the line and play anybody. Let's hold on to the culture of when they were tough … and they (opponents) knew it was going to be long damn day for themselves.
