Between the Bulls and the Bucs, Raymond James could be a House of Horrors this fall. We may need Dr. Paul Bearer to announce the games.

USF's cupboards are pretty bare and its gonna take some time for Taggart to turn things around. Recruiting was absolutely dismal under the Holtz error.

Let's not get too down on ourselves, we are only one year removed from a 3-9 season and minus a few theatrics from BJ Daniels it could have easily been a 1-11 season.

Congrats to McNeese, I'm glad you beat us as the fanbase and Athletic Director at USF desperately needed a wakeup call..

They could go winless this season. Not sure if I'll be using all of my season tickets.....but anyone can support a winner. It would be interesting to watch this team grow over the next several years and turn into a winner while being there from the beginning supporting Taggert all the way.

I love USF; I relish the time I spent there and I am a proud alumni.

I did not renew my season tix this year, and its mostly a matter of principle to me.

I believe the pricing of tickets should reflect the quality of the product on the field. In 2012 USF had only 6 home games instead of 7 and season ticket prices actually went up in some cases. Thus we paid more per game to watch what was the worst season in the program's brief history.

I've maintained my booster status and season tix for a few years and watched the program go from giant killer to circling the drain. The most notable home victory since 2010 is a win over UConn in 2012. I've grown tired of watching USF lose virtually all it's Conference games. The only home victories we've seen have been from bringing in schools that are only modestly better than some local High Schools. USF managed to squeek out victories over perennial powerhouses like UT Chattanooga but now we are losing to McNeese? The USF fan base deserves better...

AD Doug Woolard needs to go. The Holtz contract renewal was absurd. The overall state of USF athletics has declined in the past 3 years. Having nicer facilities is great, but all the spending on the Sun Dome, baseball fields and practice facilities seems worthless if you cant put a winning team in them. Until Woolard is gone I wont be buying USF tickets again.

Todays' game against Big Ten (or whatever that division is called nowadays) could be a massacre......not sure I even want to tune in.

Better showing by USF. Thought it was going to be ugly - more competitive than I expected - thankfully.

Hopefully the Bulls will get a win Saturday night. If they lose to FAU then I honestly would not expect them to get a single win this season.

They had some good defensive players to come out of that program. JPP, Jaquain Williams, a couple of pro bowl cornerbacks which i forget their names, maybe if it doesnt work out with the BUCS Schiano can turn USF around.
