There are many so-called fans that have failed to support the team in any capacity this season.  They may profess to supporting the team, but their actions on this message board alone show that to be hot air.  Glad to see that I'm not the only one disgusted by the behavior of these so-called fans.

IMO if the fans are showing up to games and talking about the team, it beats the alternative of the large number of fans who have just stopped caring.

USF used to average a REAL 5K/game. None of this new age, touchy feely attendance augmentation counting method that is all the rage in Tampa and Orlando. At least half of those fans are gone and we have to bribe our students to show up to games.

So in other words, desillusioned fans that still care are a million times better than fans are spending their disposable incomes and time somewhere else.

Not when the sole purpose for these "disillusioned" fans is to instill negativity in all other USF fans.  Your argument would be more persuasive if it weren't for the fact that these negative a-holes that call themselves fans were bashing this team, the players, the coaches, and the administration before the schedule was even announced.  There is no utility to that.  None whatsoever.  The team is better off without them.

The AD would disagree..... The Dark siders knew we were bad before the season started. Were we wrong?

Yes, you were.  You said we wouldn't win a single conference game.  We've won three of them.  Also, we're talking about MONTHS before the season started, before the schedule was even released.  There is no value to bashing our team at that point, it SOLELY serves to spread negativity.

    "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."
