Just called us a "sleeping, powerful giant" and that "USF will wn the Big East, most likely this year."  "They are returning stud Matt Grothe and they're going to ride the FORD." Great to see we are getting some recognition.

We have been getting great press and think we could very well get a Top 25 PreSeason Ranking, and for sure after the four Sept. games.

Go BULLS !!!

I'd still rather be the underdog.  and Leavitt don't need all that pressure. Let's just go i nand take it one game at a time.

lets hope this all transfers over to the preseason polls.

I just hope we can stop all this "sleeping giant" talk soon and become an awake giant.  :-/

At least it's the media calling us a "sleeping giant". Much better than a self-proclaimed "sleeping giant", if you know what I mean. ;D

Sleeping Giant was UF all of those years prior to Spurrier, USF really isn't in the same boat.  USC was a sleeping giant prior to Carroll.

If anything I'd call us a Working Giant, trying to get to the next level by 10 years of hard work.
