I'd start feeling like we need an OCS.   ;)

How many people would pass up the Bucs vs the Cowboys at the RJ to see the Bulls play Woffart at the USF OCS?

USF needs more fans in the stands more than it needs National TV and $150,000>

There's a nice high school about 2 blocks from my house. Every year for the last 3 years my girlfriend and I talk about going to a game. They are a pretty decent team. Made it through districts last season after winning their division. We have absolutely no stake in the high school - well, I guess we do in that our taxes helps pay for it. But, we have no children and don't know anyone else that has children that play. So, it's been 3 years now of talking about going and 3 years of not doing it. Always seems like something better is going on. Like someone else stated, there really isn't much of a draw for the non-high school group.

Ditto.  I live literally right next door to Tampa Catholic, who is having a spectacular season.  Talked about going to a game with my son for a few years now, never did it.

Don't have a vested interest in the school either.  It'd be a curiosity visit for me.

I also live in Wellswood, sure is a long drive from the stadium. :)

I love the neighborhood, especially on game night.  There's definitely some electricity in the air around the school now that TC plays on their own field.

Now if they could just bulldoze those apartments, I'd be in heaven.

Nice of Steinbrenner to donate the stadium, eh?

I am so glad we finally got a stadium but kinda ticked that my class did a ton of fundraising and did not get it while we were there.  

If you think the atmosphere is good now just wait until TC plays Jesuit for the first time ever at TC.  I cant wait for that game.  Don't worry it will be safe around TC b/c of all the cops that will be there!   ;D

I hope so.  I live exactly 2 streets north of that field, and I don't need tear gas wafting over into my yard!   ;)

i went to Jesuit and TC and played baseball at both.  As someone who was kicked out of Jesuit due to academic reasons and ended up being taken in by the academic juggernaut of Tampa Catholic, i know that the rivalry is fierce.  I dont know who to cheer for on this one.  But i DO know that TC's 1st home game ever vs. JHS will be historic, and all those TC/JHS fights afterward will line the streets of tampa with catholic blood like a Tiger Crusading through the middle east!

go bulls

    "There is no inherent fear among this group of players. The fear of failing drove the program from day one - the fear of failing the coaches, the fan base, the university, each teammate, themselves. Now, as we head into the biggest game in our history at home on a national stage against the highest ranked team to step on OUR field, the players are taking an introspective look at themselves. Unfortunately, I don't know if they get it. They lack the fear."

    Terry Lucas, 09/26/22
