USF Syracuse sold out?????

Credit to Athletics for pushing this game and keeping the awareness up. Red Panda, penny pickup, radio spots with $15 tickets, giveaways on 98.7 and social media. They did their part, now people need to come out and make that place loud. After playing the way we have shorthanded our guys deserve it.

It's going to be a sea of orange .... especially considering it's probably their last conference game down here plus the day/start time ...

Agree it will be too many Cuse fans in the Bld esp if we use the UCF game as an indicator.(That was horrible). Now we know that other fans will show up so its our responsibility to limit the number by making sure we use our tickets, encourage other USF fans to attend and buy up the tickets. If we buy them up, they(Cuse) wont be able to use them. Time to step up Bulls FANS. Dome only holds 10,000 people. Not that difficult to fill up.

Definition of 'Charitable Donation'

A gift made by an individual or an organization to a nonprofit organization, charity or private foundation.

A donor who is looking for perks because he donates, isn't really a donor. He's just someone looking to get a leg up by spending money. It's kind of the same thing as paying a scalper. If you want to donate, donate. If you want great seats, pay the freight and quit calling yourself a "donor"

USF calls these people "donors". As does Every other university in America.

Also the lifeblood of the university

This is great but only one email to students isn't enough for me. The diehards will go but I doubt that any student who doesn't follow basketball know this is a big game, and it's a shame.

They just sent another email.....

Dear Bulls:

On Sunday the number 7 team in college basketball is coming to the Sun Dome to play our Bulls. They’re going to bring their fans.

Do you want the Sun Dome to be green, or orange?

The Bulls play Syracuse Sunday at noon in a nationally televised game. Let’s show the nation what USF student sprit looks like.

If you haven’t already, now is the time to get your ticket. Just follow the link provided (click here) and you’ll be ready for Sunday.

There is no more important contributor to the atmosphere in the Sun Dome than a USF student. You are the people who make everything happen. You are the people who inspire the team. You are the people that make our home court a tough place for opponents to play. You are the people who show Tampa Bay and the nation how USF supports the Bulls.

Our team is ready. We had a strong road win at UCF on Wednesday night, and we are 9-3 on the season. This game marks the beginning of conference play, the time when we need our students in attendance the most.

I hope you’ll be there on Sunday. It’ll be a great game, and thanks to you, it will be a great GREEN atmosphere in the Sun Dome.

This is our chance. Let’s show everyone what it means to be a Bull.

Sincerely,

Stan Heath

Head USF Basketball Coach
