Leavitt, Holtz, CTW -and the 1st sign of hope

[usf97]

Interesting article in Deadspin the other day about Fan-dom and how most people at Chargers games are neither from LA or San Diego. 

It isn't clear that this Chargers experiment is going to work.

I think USF fans hung in there for a few years after Leavitt but we see the shenanigans of Woolard and Harlan and Genshaft and are fatigued.  

I just hope the next USF president isn't just another ego driven politician but cynically I believe that is what all of them are.

Would love to get a new President from a P5 program who knows the PR value to college sports.

So,  you actually think Dr Genshaft doesn’t know the true PR value.

I don't think it much, if anything, to do with shenanigans but more related to the reversal of fortune related to conference affiliation ...

In 2018, she oversaw the single most awful logo rebrand in the history of PR.

Her last  achievement was that awful logo. She made huge strides in academics, but left the FOOTBALL program out to die.

Great...She served on some committees and got an award. Where was she when the BE folded? Where is the **** IPF? No question she deserves a statue for all she has done academically and this is the most important element...but I can’t be sold relative to football.
