You're welcome, but excerpts are provided by none other than Mr. Grier himself.

I can't wait to get the book myself.

The USF book store has copies. Actually, Mr. Woolard bought his copy there....It's never easy getting past coaching changes...Regardless of which side of the fence you're on it has an effect on the University in ways much more than you think...

The rebooting process has begun...For those of you new to the recent issue, A Raging Bull, (48 Hours & Forty Ninth Hour) chapters may give you a view into the events leading up to where we now stand...Let's hope for the best with our next campaign. With any new staff we must support them...Another chapter in our history is about to begin....

I just added a new link to order "A Raging Bull - Chasing the Big Time" by Tony Grier.  It is in the middle by the Ads by yahoo box...

Looks like:  New Bulls Gear Online:

                 New! Buy A Raging Bull  

It is a link to "Books a Million" that also offers free shipping on orders over $25.   Nice deal.

Just finished reading the book and I recommend it...especally for those of us that attended USF during the early 1980s. The chapter on the Florida 4 was especially interesting as the GaYtors and Knowlies got scared and jumped ship.

My copy just arrived...missed the weekend read time, but I'll have no problem putting down Louis Freeh's MY FBI to read A Raging Bull.  Poor kids, I'll be putting them in bed early tonight...

    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.
