At this point, I'm for doing whatever CWT thinks he can get the most results from conditioning and teaching of the players.

The team's record is not the fault of training camp location. Keep Vero going. The Staff there really supports the kids, creates bond among the team. Space/Treasure Coast is underecruited by Big 3 and us. It's also a lot cooler in swelter of summer. Less chance of heat related issues(Southie excluded of course) and they have put a lot of work in to make this a top notch facility. If you haven't been do yourself a favor. I also expect we have signed a term contract due to the upgrades they have put in, I would be surprised if we aren't locked in for a while.

 

 

Shouldn't there be a disclaimer attached to that recommendation ....?    ;)

Keep the money local.  The cost savings could be used for improvements on USF's practice facilities.

Is this true?  Seems really hard to believe given that all the facilities in Tampa are fixed cost.

I think there benefits to having a pro style training camp where the kids are focused on football and each other.  However, I think having it closer to Tampa, such as Lakeland at Tiger Town, would allow the fans to watch the team more often and perhaps aid in recruiting kids in Polk County.

 

 

Lakeland sounds like a great idea. Have we had a relatively high-profile Polk county kid commit to USF since Grothe? Polk is a UF stronghold, but I think we could put a dent in their recruiting hold. Having this two week camp there could help us make the dent in terms of goodwill and exposure to area recruits.

Same discussion, new year. THE COSTS ARE THE SAME.

At least close enough that there are no distractions in Vero as compared to Tampa.

The costs in Tampa are just as fixed as the costs to go to Vero. They've got it down pretty well after 3 years. It's cost neutral to go to Vero.
