I think if we can get this to 300 pages the Big 12 will come begging for USF to join!

Besides winning and seeking out more donors...

 

What could USF do to make themselves more attractive to the BIG12?

 

Spend more money in Athletics? Raise tuition contribution fees (i don't want that)?

 

Advertising? Special-deals with businesses to distribute tickets? Bully other AAC schools?

Big 12

Because we didn't hit the 1k page goal required.

No one knows what private conversations have been happening, but any time you ask any coach or athletic administrator, they say the same thing. Things like "we need to take care of ourselves" "we need to right the ship" "we need to get back to winning". At the minimum, I imagine we need to get back to averaging >45k in the stands, and getting to and winning bowl games.

 

Other things that will help include continuing to win academically, winning in non-football sports, and demonstrating some upgrade in terms of donations/facilities/etc.

Yada, Yada, Yada.... That's all great and stuff, but I want a golden goose NOW!

Winning multiple conference championships in the major sports will be the best way to get the Big 12 or any other conferences attention

    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.

    Valiant efforts are for losers, moral victories are for losers. That’s what losers say. Winners win.
