There's going to by 9 teams in that conference with brands on the Auburn/Florida/A&M level or higher. There's going to be a handful of teams that have fanbases expecting 10+ wins almost every year that will turn into middling 6-6 programs.

This is why I think the playoff was extended.  Not to let us in.

I watched his press conference and it's clear he is driven and full of energy.  Is there anything Coach Da Prato can do that would lead you to support him as the full time head coach. This won't

Da Prato has no previous head coaching experience. We're not doing that again.

Washing out the bad taste of failure  and replacing with with wins should be very high on Michael Kelly's list.

Yeah I think he is trying to take a bummer situation and make the end at least memorable and fun for the group.

This won't happen, but let's say the Bulls shut down SMU this week, after scoring 77 last week, and USF goes 3-0 during the last 3 games.

Would that be enough in your mind to hand the job over to Da Prato, or is it absolutely certain that USF must hire someone from the outside, no matter the results the final 3 games.

Real short, this ain't the guy

that's exactly right. great for the money. not so great for the fans.

look at the old big east teams. they were consistently top 25 teams that played huge bowl games and now they can barely crack .500 most years.

west virginia is 68-56 since leaving big east. that's an average of 7-6 every year.

miami dominated college football when they were in the big east. they are an also ran in the acc

I enjoyed this so I had some fun with numbers at our expense:

USF was 56-45 in the Big East (avg. of 7-5 every year).

USF is 50-68 in the AAC (avg. of 5-7 every year). 

Sometimes playing in a lesser conference is worse! If we get a league promotion we're practically guaranteed to be better on avg. by 2 games a year! Go Bulls?

I like Da Prato. Love his social media energy too. Not sure whether his chops are ready to bite off HC, but he's got lots to like about him.
