Conference realignment "Rumors" "tweets" "etc"

Not a problem for me.  I got my Master's from central state.  There really is no choice.  I used to drive to Mickey Mouse land with my USF license plate proudly displayed.

You gotta pick a side when they play though. I had to do that. I got my Masters from Western Kentucky and I was all USF when we met in our bowl game.

Yessir, always go with Bulls over Noles when they go head-to-head.  Has left me with more lumps, but makes it all the sweeter when the Bulls do prevail.

USF should eventually be part of all that.  Heck, we are finally seeing a partnership with the Bucs. USF will definitely be part of the College Football reset whenever that happens.

Any information on this partnership?

Indeed! There is a very small and finite number of NFL franchises, and to own one, guarantees membership in a very exclusive club. It would be a mistake to think that Bucs & Bolts value automatically equates to USF value based on proximity. The great point above is that the existing UF/FSU fans are probably not as fair-weather as we see with professional sports and won't necessarily jump ship and become Bulls fans, regardless of whatever conference U of SF finally lands in. We are, after all, fans of our alma mater, not fans of our conference. 

Before Tom Brady, people in Tampa didn't really care much about the Bucs either. Winning changes everything in the Bay.

I completely agree with you, that’s why we are looked at as an investment. I believe in the right situation, we could be more valuable than Miami and UCF and over time, on par with FSU. All we can do is hope that we get into the ACC (as long as it doesn’t blow up, just lose 2-4 teams) or B12. If that happens, we keep Golesh, it wouldn’t take long for us to be viewed with the Florida 3. 

Sorry to say it's the Big 4 rn, and USF is 5. Even the new CFB 25 puts ucf above the Gators.

Has to be sooner.   If we're to stay viable. 

 

 

No way that's happening, unless you want more lawsuits. This is how you get lawsuits. In a perfect world, the slate would be cleaned and conferences would be formed regionally, kept relatively small, and out of conference games would be saved for "far" teams.

Probably similar to the USF advertising with the Lightning.

If an NIT type tournament is created for the G5, the P# will cut us out of the CFP and possible revenue immediately.  This is a terrible idea.
