Let's give Harlan the opportunity to get all the programs winning. Everyone has seen that tampa will support usf when we are winning so let's get all sports winning this boosting the attendance and make us a program the big 5 conferences want.

 

I'd think the P5 conferences look beyond schools with fair weather fans/supporters. Kentucky won 2 games in 2013 and averaged 59k per home game. Arkansas won 3 games and averaged 67k at home. P5 wants fans that show up through thick and thin.

 

 

There's been a list of criteria for expansion released by the P5 schools ..... link?

I always felt USF was a fit for the ACC and UCF and Cincy for the B12.  If you look at football we have nearly beat all ACC teams at least once including Notre Dame.  I think the location and teams fi

Cool article. Looks like we'll get to be the 15th team in the ACC rather than the 11th in the B12. I'm good with that.

I had forgotten we are going to two divisions this year. Did anyone ever decide how those divisions would break out? Does anyone care?

It was announced over a year ago!

No. Don't confuse left/right with east/west. East always goes before West in these situations.

The sun rises in the east and sets in the west. For time zones east is ahead of west. For division standings in baseball it's always listed East-Central-West. I have never heard of an album called West-East. It's not called the West-East Shrine game.

He loses all credibility when he failed to mention Pitt, Rutgers, BC, Miami. Those home games look like a morgue.

Lol ... We aren't even mentioned in the article.

 

Yeah, sucks that we aren't included in this ringing endorsement ...

 

Other potential additions — again, if they go the three-division route — could include Cincinnati, Memphis, UCF and UConn.

 

:rolleyes:

Right, they omitted us because we're too good to be associated with those other four, right?

 

 

 

There was no "they". It's just one guy throwing names out there and the fact we were omitted means absolutely nothing ...

That's rich coming from you, lol, talking about credibility. You named 4 of the 64 P5 teams. BTW, I also included supporters in my statement, the ones funding athletic departments.

I'd be so pumped if one day we were as unpopular and unsuccessful as Pitt.

Just got to get all athletics winning across the board. Get average attendance to around 50 to 60k.

 

Reminds me of the old Steve Martin routine: "You can be a millionaire and never pay taxes! You say "Steve, how can I be a millionaire and never pay taxes?"

 

"First, get a million dollars... "
