USF sponsored motion to consider UCF for Big East expansion

[Who'sYourData?]

I am going to keep this comment brief since I just want to enjoy the game; but she is lukewarm towards Boise State, but sponsors a motion for UCF?

Don't believe everything you read.

The UCF stuff is very simple, actually.  I'm fairly sure that Judy isn't thrilled with the UCF addition.  But once we lost Pitt and Syracuse, the possible additions changed and the need to add SOMEONE increased.  Also, USF has only one vote.  It is silly to think we could block them all by ourselves.

Once the discussions were had and it was obvious that UCF was going to be invited, it only made sense to have Judy make the call.  Obviously it looks better for USF and the Big East this way.  Politically, whichever schools are invited will all get a unanimous official vote and full support.

Yeah I'm sure at first this was not in her/BE plans but once 2 all sport teams needed to be added the options were really cut to a handful. Now all invites will go out unanimously and have some political motives as well.  Plus UCF and USF work together on the high tech corridor so they have a good working relationship.

So does that mean that UCF fans have to shut the holes in their faces about this whole "blocking" thing?

SMU is shutting their holes right now.  17 - 3 at half.....

Can a university president be impeached?

I believe the Trustees decide when to renew contracts so I guess they could move to have the president of a school removed. Don't think its very common and I'd imagine you'd need the faculty to have a vote of no confidence and such first or a legal issue. I'd think state board of governors could also remove a president.

we should have never stopped playing them

Why is there no outrage over this? She should be fired on the spot for this move. Unbelievable that she would stab our school in the back like this.

I'm calling to cancel my alumi membership tomorrow morning. This school doesnt deserve another cent out of me.

I'm sure your $40 a year won't be missed entirely too much.

Email the cancellation now, that way they'll get it the first thing in the morning .... although, I don't think you can really cancel it ... just don't renew it when the time comes.

BTW, if you don't think this was done as a last resort type of action, you're as big a knucklehead as the Kanigits you hate so much believing she had the power to stop them ...
