Yeah that is why I'm saying its 15 years too late. They are just figuring out now they need an OCS.

15 years ago we were using the 3rd level at RayJay and expanding the student section. Why the **** did we need one back then?

So that 15 years later after we fired the Godfather of USF football, hired multiple schmucks, got demoted, and wallowed in mediocrity or worse ... after all that we may have grown some tradition and a fan base to tread some water and not completely destroy all that was built during that first decade.

Wouldn’t have just been easier and cheaper not to fire The Godfather? If we had the foresight to see how this would go and necessitating a stadium we probably would have had the foresight to just not blow up the program to begin with.

Because cup holders were way cheaper 15 years ago. Now, we're screwed.

We’d be playing Tulane and Tulsa in front of pitiful crowds in a debt ridden green stadium ……. If we had a crystal ball and saw what was coming maybe we should have tapped into that huge donor base that was built in those first ten years to build one, except a huge donor base was one thing that wasn’t built in that first decade.

Sure, but that wasn't the question being asked.

There's been a lot of money raised over there the past 15 years for no donor base .....

You said that they should have built it then so that when they fired him we wouldn’t be in this position, if we had that kind of foresight we wouldn’t have fired him

    We've talked about getting back to being the toughest, most violent people out there. Let's be the best version of ourselves and really get back to the culture of how we (USF) used to step across the line and play anybody. Let's hold on to the culture of when they were tough … and they (opponents) knew it was going to be long damn day for themselves.
