Keeping good company.  In his final 6, with Clemson, UNC, UF, Southern Cal and Auburn.

Wow, that's some interesting company. I hope we can beat out Southern Cal and Auburn.

[Velcro]

I like that he said we (along with UNC) are pushing the hardest.  I like our chances vs UNC.

Highlight of the story:

"USF is a great school for me ... academic wise and football wise," Giddins said. "There's a lot of talent there. I could see myself going there and accomplishing all my goals."

I think it will come down to USF and So Cal, as I said in a previous thread on him.

Hopefully Selvie tears it up this year and keeps the USF name in the news.  It never hurts to be on ESPN with these young kids.  Stay at home Ryne, help out the Bulls!!

[Bullpride08]

USF will be in this until the end. ;D

Oddly enough I think the BEast ESPN TV deal may not receive the cash as some other conferences and has excruciating game times/days, where does everyone go for their sports coverage?

ESPN will want to sell its product and get people watching their games.  Start watching for an increased bias toward USF/WVU deserving a NC spot if they're doing well late in the season.  The talking heads don't really get to voice their opinions.  Their opinions are dictated to them by ESPN management deciding what would make them the most money.

I'm not complaining.  This could be another one of those 1 in a million chance opportunities the USF football program has stumbled upon for its meteoric rise. 

Public opinion may not mean a whole lot on the field, but it’ll certainly help bring recruits to a team with little “tradition!† A little artificial tradition if you will.

If they are doing well late in the season, they would deserve national championship talk.  You have any evidence other than your own belief that ESPN is so corrupt to not let their "analysts" speak their own opinions?
