I think charsibb is trying to convey is:

 

"given that our first year(s) in CUSA-II, having previously recruited (alleged) Big East level talent, USF should be successful. However, once that supply is exhausted and we're back to recruiting CUSA-II talent players, our success is more in doubt (based on the program being what it is and has been)."  ... or words to that effect.

 

Yay or Nay? 

Nay. Charsibb was a little confused, thinking we'd still be in a BE type conference but not being able to pull in BE type talent.

I disagree with that statement ....are you saying Gonzaga, Butler, VCU and other programs are not getting high quality players even though they are in much lower conferences

Trip's right, but I agree with Wooly. How's that for confusing?

OK, I'll take a shot - because they have a good coach AND they run an uptempo offense?

Sheesh.

Not saying that at all ... and not saying we won't get high quality players when we drop down, but do you think the overall recruiting will be the same in CUSA II as it would have been if the BE was still intact? That's all I'm saying ....

 

Thing, also, is we really didn't have that long of a period recruiting as a member of THE Big East, with the new bells and whistles, so we shouldn't see that big of a drop off. We should, hopefully. do fine in CUSA II in that regard once the gears are shifted.

Neither VCU nor Gonzaga, both small schools, field football teams. 

 

However, when your cornerstone program - in both cases above - is basketball, you're gonna get those recruits (the only game in town).

Butler, however, being in basketball rich Indiana, also enjoys that level of recruit.

 

South Florida - never has been, and I'm willing to bet never will be a dominant basketball program because of multiple reasons  and now

that  football has the spotlight, a losing - or average - U of SF basketball team will not land the recruits that a 'Hoops Heavy' school would. 

 

We are on the fast track to mediocrity...not that there's anything wrong with that.

One would have said the same about Miami. And look what they've done in the past weeks...

    "There is no inherent fear among this group of players. The fear of failing drove the program from day one - the fear of failing the coaches, the fan base, the university, each teammate, themselves. Now, as we head into the biggest game in our history at home on a national stage against the highest ranked team to step on OUR field, the players are taking an introspective look at themselves. Unfortunately, I don't know if they get it. They lack the fear."

    Terry Lucas, 09/26/22

    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.

    Kevin Patrick
