THEY WILL BREAK YOUR HEART EVERY TIME

[USFBULL18]

That was the #23 team in the nation and we took them to overtime with the refs on their side.

Not a tiny bit of disappointment here. These guys have been playing their hearts out for several weeks now.

I'm excited looking forward, it only gets better from here. But this group will always be the group of players that took us from the bottom to the top.

I say, bravo!

it is disappointing we had the game there at the end...other than that I can agree.

Suffering from broken heart

EVERY TIME

This team deserves a lot of credit. They played their hearts out tonight. The last thing I hate is being a USF fan. I like Dela am "broken hearted" but this game convinced me once again that we can play with ANYONE in the country. Every coach headed into this tourney knows that now, too. So one finger roll away from a huge upset, I think Poland didn't slam it because he was being cautious, that indecision cost him the shot. That and every thing that bounced 4 feet off a ND missed shot fell back into the net. They got the breaks, we didn't. We didn't get beat tonight, we just lost a game

we don't make things harder on ourselves. we are still navigating uncharted waters for our two revenue sports. football is still a VERY young program, and we're trying to build a program in the best conference in men's college basketball, and we're doing it against northeastern teams in a state like Florida that isn't traditionally abundant in basketball talent. this team has overachieved with a freshman at pointguard and no true go-to scorer that even puts up double digits a game. yet look where we are, on the verge of dancing.

YES, we all want to win something, we all want to bask in the glory... but regardless of anything else this season has been a huge, huge leap forward for our program. enjoy it. u rob yourself of the joys of being a fan when u ignore the positive accomplishments by constantly setting higher standards once the previous standards have been shattered.

i love how we are disappointed that our basketball team lost to notre dame after winning a BE tourny game and is probly headed to the dance...

at the beginning of the season we were clamoring for stan to be canned

I wasn't on the firing Stan bandwagon, but everything else you said is spot on.

I hate being a USF fan.

Then stop being one. No one is forcing you to be.

So...

I[m thankful and appreciative of this team

Went way beyond anyone's realistic expectations.

...So yeah... "What a disappointment"

Who would have thought we would be excited (and still rooting) for this team in March

Let's hope this is the rebirth of a great era in Bulls BBall.
