The new hire could have insight or pull to get USF into a P5 conference. I would take P5 over on campus stadium all day long. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I agree, but this article is saying the most important top priority for the new AD should be an on-campus stadium which I highly disagree with and it should be a P5 conference invite.

We can have both - or at least fight for both. Plus, an AD has greater control over fundraising for an OCS than wiggling us into a P5 conference, which is ultimately up to a vote by other schools with their own financial interests at heart.

Winning will invigorate the football program and then we can worry about an OCS. New AD's top priority and focus should be to do whatever is needed to get the winning back on track. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

But we'll have to agree to disagree on whether RJS should remain USF's home facility indefinitely (setting aside cost and attendance issues). Not getting into the pros and cons of that debate right now, but I think that's what Joey meant by "game-changer." Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
