It would be a small fee consistory have never played a down for them. 

I don’t think that is as big as many people think. You want a team that has actually won something and can be competitive right away as well.

This is why I keep stating if you want a power invite the most important thing you can do is win as many games as possible.

Lol I surprised how down you are regarding USF. Things are finally heading up for us so hopefully we will see it on the field. MK was one of the top executives in the ACC. He is Mr ACC imo. I’m sure USF is one of the top candidates to join ACC once they lose FSU.

It’s pretty easy to be down on a program that represents the key stone cops well. They have given me zero proof they know what they are doing. Zero! Here we are saying that if they win 5 games it is a successful season. Are you kidding me?

You are correct sir. And with many saying that winning 4/5 games is a good year is laughable. They better win and do it quickly if they have any chance.

WE may not agree on everything but winning is the most important factor in the power conversation. THe SEC and b1g are not looking to add more Rutgers and Vanderbilt teams to their conference.

Depends on what the conference is looking for. That was the case with this last B12 expansion but you don't know what the next expansion will be based on for certain.

I do think 6 wins is possible, but if it’s a 4 way win season what’s left of fans will drop like flies I don’t think some people realize how important this season is. It’s probably the most important ever.

USF has a much (much) better academic standing that UCF, and I don't know if UCF would want to leave the Big 12 and pay another exit fee for what would be a lateral move at best... heck, this new ACC without the top programs could be a step down (in their eyes).

I can't believe there's any way UCF would be that stupid .....

For sure, but winning games, conference titles, playing on NYD sure as hell can’t hurt. The three schools from the AAC who moved to the B12 did all of these things. USF however is banking on location (which is a debatable importance since the fan base is UF and FSU) and academics.

That doesn't explain UCLA... better than USF, sure... but if on field success was important it should be USC and Oregon going to the Big Ten.

    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.
