Cue comments that it costs no more to go there than to stay on campus (I remember those from last year) :)

I like the "concept" of vero even if it didn't work out....

My company could use the accountant that came up with those numbers.

Could be a good idea if they rotate the camp (if there are locations for this) all around the Tampa area. Maybe next years camp down in the Bradenton/Sarasota area. The following year in St.Pete/Central Pinellas area. Would be a great outreach to not only fans, but future recruits in those areas to come see camp (or the scrimmages).

The problem clearly wasn't Vero or on campus summer practice. I think it is helpful out there to give some recruits that way a chance to visit practice. Wouldn't be upset if Coach T canned Vero or not

I'm not terribly concerned one way or the other. I tend to doubt it does much good, but it certainly wasn't our downfall.

+1

I like the idea of getting away to narrow the focus. And rotating it to be more accesiible to more recruits just makes sense.

I just think Skippy blew the opportunity. Let's not toss the baby with the bathwater...

Would be a great idea. I suspect they get a pretty cheap deal at Vero that would be tough to replicate elsewhere, however.

Question came up at the signing party.   Vero is probably going to happen again.
