Rocky Style Posted November 19, 2012 Group: Member Topic Count: 109 Content Count: 21,097 Reputation: 4,614 Days Won: 39 Joined: 09/14/2007 Share Posted November 19, 2012 The saddest thing about that article is that good hardworking people are leaving while underachieving people get raises. that is how it works at USF at every level... USF has a leadership/management issue and its because almost all of USF's current leadership/management did not graduate from USF. We are the only university that does not hire alumni to run the University. If you go to any of the SEC schools their administration is stacked with alumni... here our administration is stacked with alumni from DeVry, Phoneix, and Rasmussen. As a USF MBA, I would love to nuke this thing and rebuild. It makes me angry to see organizations run so poorly. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Not firing holtz will cost more money then keeping him. Out of our group of 12 that have had season tickets for 8 years, 9 of those people are thinking about not renewing. I agree with your plan and would love to see a young and hungry coach come in. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Assuming we can get a decent coach... if we hire a no name or untested coach then it might backfire, but at this point I'm afraid this is our best option.

Bring in a good OC or DC from a reputable school and start anew. The AD needs to go as well. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Leaders have to make tough decisions. This guy (Holtz) is a complete loser and the evidence is in the games this season. How did you like watching that Miami game on Saturday? You are telling me talent-wise that we have dropped that much? A coach that has no idea how to work the game clock? The defensive secondary has to be one of the worst I have seen.

He had to leave UNC under "interesting" circumstances. Could we get a discounted rate? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
