Moral victories

We have more moral losses too.

The irony is, the entire USF Football program is a moral victory. A program that almost was...

Against the advice of the likes of Bob Stoops and Bill Snyder, Leavitt left Manhattan, KS to come home to Tampa/St Pete for a truck driver's salary. He almost won. He almost had the team "there" until Doug Woolard pulled the rug out from under him to fix something that wasn't broken. Leavitt loses and the Bulls begin a death spiral.

UCF is the king of moral victories. Let's not step into their territory.

The program is, not was. We haven't disbanded yet.

Some of us will always appreciate leavitt's efforts for the program. However, the program he lay the groundwork for is bigger than any one person. That's a credit to Jim leavitt.

The program is...what?

Leavitt gave folks just a taste, but it was enough to simply drive many mad and have delusions of grandeur. USF is now destined to be the perrenial doormat of the weakened Big East. Actually, USF may have already acheived door mat status. Be sure and wipe your feet.

Trip, your whine-o-meter must be starting to get in the warning zone - you are doing a lot of whining about "whining."

Do I really have to go over the whole double negative thing again ....? And honestly, you have to admit, with all the ******** flying around in here, I've been pretty restrained ....

Double negative?

I agree with you about his whining. His estrogen level must be elevated...again.

Moral victories can be good. It just depends on which side of the victory you are on.

This. Period.

Moral victories are by definition for losers. I'd much rather leave that to our red-headed step-brothers to the east.

CJL did it to himself. Not ADDW.
