The guy is young and if he is successful over the next few seasons he will want a chance to win a NC which is something that can't be accomplished coaching at USF.

How many seconds were we from Cincinnati playing for the NC, what was that, one second? And that's Cincinnati.

You did see what the best team in the BE Cincinnati had happen to them in a BCS bowl? WVU losing to a so so FSU team didn't help either. Those debacles help reinforce what the nation's perception of the BE conference really is. Trust me the voters in the future will never forget that.

If holtz comes here... Wins games... Wins championships(BE)... Then he will have earned the right to do what he wants.

That's the 2nd time you've posted that.  What makes you think that?  We were #2 at one point.

Yeah, it doesn't make sense. WVU would have competed for the NC a few years ago if they beat Pitt. Even Cincy had a chance if Texas had lost.

But, the proof is that MIAMI WAS in the Big East and had no problem competing for and winning national titles.

We will have some good OOC BCS games each year and that could be sufficient if we go undefeated, especially if there were no other undefeated teams that year.

Didn't last. Also we know a 1 lost team from one of the top 4 conferences would likely move up past an undefeated team from the BE. By contrary a BE team that suffers a lost moves out of the National Championship picture completely.

You see how the Bearcats went into that game with both of their arms chopped off? Kelly was gone, their interim coach had one foot out the door, the game plan was probably a complete mess, the players were all pissed, the other team had more talent and motivation with the whole Urban Meyer thing... there was no way Cincy was winning that game.

The perception of the BE has changed since the Flagship has left

The key for a school like USF to get to the NC game is to be good a few years in a row.  That way each of the following seasons you start hire in the polls.

Will he leave in the next few years if successful?

No. His buyout is very freaking high.

Will he leave in the future? Maybe, money talks and if a big gig opened like Ohio State, Georgia, etc he'd have to consider it.

Well, we could be the next Flagship in the Big East.

Frankly, I think the perception of the ACC has changed worse than the Big East.

purely hypothetical, but IF we were to go 12-0 next year (again, hypothetical), we'd have wins AT florida, AT miami, and AT Cincy, along with EIGHT OTHER WINS. i think that's worthy of a NC shot.
