I always support USF, I was just explaining that if things like recruiting top talent depend on TV money we are in trouble. I was just trying to point out that they don't depend on TV money. I felt that the 3 points made by the poster were valid IMO and why I thought so. Not trying to be holier than thou. Apologize if it came out that way.

Sadly, I do not think it a coincidence that the schools that consistently do get the top recruits and win the most games, get donors to cough up big bucks, and put the fans in the seats also have the big TV money.

There is no doubt that the better programs get more money from their donors. And more money will allow a larger recruiting budget. But there are a ton of programs that haven't won a Nat'l Championship that still draw big donors. USF needs time to have people that graduated with football (last 15 years) to establish themselves and become successful in life. There are probably a bunch of USF grads from the 80's that are UF, FSU or Miami fans since we had no football. This will all take time. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

If there is one short-cut to on the field success it would be landing a great coach before anyone else knows he's great, a budding Bowden or Saban, a guy who can make lemonade out of lemons, so to speak.

Obviously you have never worked as an Industrial engineer..production planning.. The way I originally heard it was that "No matter how hard they try, 9 women can't make a baby in one month." Emphasizing the fact that simply throwing more people at a problem won't necessarily fix it. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
