Funny when opinion threads on this board receive so many "its too early for these" responses in the offseason and "its too late for these...we blew it" during the season.

Actually, I believe, last year at this time, many people on here were saying that 2012 would be THE best year for USF in football, rather than 2011.

Looking ahead then to 2013, because of losing Daniels and so many first and second team seniors, despite having more depth across the board, I don't expect we will be better than 2012,

So, IMO, THIS is our best chance to win the conference for at least two years.

And if it chokes, does Skip get the can?

I think the buyout might be too expensive to fire him anytime soon. But, regardless, I am not giving up on Skip Holtz.

It's not just me who believes that.

Despite the fact that we went 5-7, Phil Steele saw what we have on paper and ran it through his computers and picked us to win the Big East and ranked us #20.

If we had gone to a bowl game last year and finished with a winning record, which we certainly should have done, I'm pretty sure that we would now be ranked, rather than just receiving votes. That's because on paper, we look better than the other teams in the Big East. It's just that our history of slumping doesn't allow people to believe in what they see, to make that leap completely.

I think our teams in the past have lacked that killer/aggressive mentality. We get up for big games but then the energy drops. I'm sure lack of depth contributed to a lot of that.

I think last year was a good thing. I think all of those close losses really hurt at the time, but looking back I think we will learn from them and make them even hungrier this year. If you follow players on twitter (Kayvon for sure) some of them regularly talk about making sure what happened last season doesnt happen again. I think this is the year that ends a long run when we finally win the BE

    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.
