No business at all being in a Big 5 conference ... Pffftt... even teams in the big 5 conference when they suck BAD their fan base doesn't come out. 2 years ago UM is a perfect example. Empty stadium and someone rented a sign on the back of an airplane saying Fire Randy for the USF/UM game...and they won National Championships! Quit acting all mightier than thou and let people express their displeasure in the way they see fit. Its a young fanbase and it will find its way to its median sooner or later.

Actual attendance, per Tampa Sports Authority, was 20,665. Glad I missed it. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I skipped the game to go visit a friend and play golf...glad I did Sure nothing like missing a win. We have so many. You probably couldn't have played golf another time. That game was boring...I'm still glad I missed it. Come on beating uconn doesn't mean much Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The rest of the night was quiet, great time spent with friends who showed up, and a nice evening out. Bulls won as well. So all in all not so bad.

Until the administration establishs themselves as a legit program willing to win and listen to the fan base + communicate instead of playing around this will always happen. Plus it's Florida fans...they are fickle when it comes to their teams losing or winning (Rays) I'm all for making a statement and showing the AD and staff that as fans you are upset and the best way is not showing up to a game. But hopefully the fans will show up to the last game to show support to the Seniors. I'm looking to book my tickets and get down there. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Until the administration establishs themselves as a legit program willing to win and listen to the fan base + communicate instead of playing around this will always happen. I guess raising millions to push a program from non-existent to major college football is not establishing a legit program that is willing to win? What the hell does "willing to win" mean anyway? Plus it's Florida fans...they are fickle when it comes to their teams losing or winning (Rays) No one shows for the Rays games when they're winning, but that is beside the point. It's an unfair comparison. I'm all for making a statement and showing the AD and staff that as fans you are upset and the best way is not showing up to a game. Trust me, the fact that we're 3-6 stands out enough that they don't need fans boycotting the games. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
