Good article. I compare those post game comments and shake my head.

Good article.

We even maintained that spirit through the ND game last year and until midway through the year. Then it just kept creeping into the entire fan and team mentality.

Perfectly put and mirrors my thoughts exactly...THIS is not USF football. There is....or was a mentality to USF and Skip has completely missed it.

skip does not exude confidence.

he doesn't coach confidently either. from settling for field goals to punting on opponents 37 yard line on 4th and short.

he shows no confidence in his players. he is almost always playing it safe.

he doesn't coach to win. doesn't have the killer instinct. you see it in some coaches. they just do whatever it takes to win. they refuse to lose. it's night and day the feeling you get watching brian kelly or muschamp or saban on the sideline compared to holtz. they have a different aura about them.

skip almost sets himself up for the big disappointment. leaves just enough time on the clock for a team to kick game winning field goal instead of going for the first down to ice the game.

it has gotten worse. not sure he can turn things around. these players seem tainted.

You're so right, look at the Mad Hatter... You never know what he's going to do but his kids believe in him. He finds a way to win. Skip is SO PREDICTABLE.

    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.
