Mr. Steinbrenner should donate, no build USF a stadium. Call it Steinbrenner/Leavitt/Grothe Field.

I'm a huge Rays fan and on the field, cannot stand the Yankees. However, many members of that organization are a big part of the Tampa community and have been for a long time, including Mr. Steinbrenner (didnt he make some large donation to HOT and other places on campus) as well as all his other charitable donations in Tampa area. Plus, they are the spring training team in Tampa, so I dont have a problem with Skip hanging out with The Boss.

That being said, I hope the Yankees lose 100 games this season. lol

He paid for the lights at the current baseball stadium. They are still going strong and it one less expense over there.

Steinbrenner was a fixture at USF basketball games and is/was a donor to the athletic program.  I think developing relationships with the Yankee AND Rays organizations is good for the athletic department.

Having USF play the Yankees last spring training had to be a great opportunity for the USF players.

Plus don't these guys basically head up the Pinstripe Bowl? I mean, if your head coach has a chance to hang out with members of Big East affiliated bowl committees you guys would all say that is great. I think ties to Steinbrenner is good for USF.

Steinbrenner used to support USF basketball during the Greenberg years. Not sure if those pinstripe dollars are still coming in, but if Holtz and crew can get ol' Steinbrenner to throw some greenbacks back in USF's direction, I'm all for him shmoozing with the pin stripers.

The Yankees are the best pro sports franchise in the country, if not the world...having a relationship with them can never be bad.

Say what you want about Steinbrenner but he donates a lot to the schools in our area.

I don't like the fact that Skip is standing up like hes not worthy of a chair while Lou, George, and Reggie are sitting.

Skip is the youngest of the four in that picture.  No problem with him standing to my way of thinking.

    We've talked about getting back to being the toughest, most violent people out there. Let's be the best version of ourselves and really get back to the culture of how we (USF) used to step across the line and play anybody. Let's hold on to the culture of when they were tough … and they (opponents) knew it was going to be long damn day for themselves.

    "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."
