I think he's wisely making it fun for the players and interesting or atteactive to the fans. He's excited, why not us?

The last thing I want to watch is a scripted game with no reality...The backs make fabulous runs the receivers make great catches,,,because...THEY ARE NOT BEING COVERED...I want to see strong points AND WEAKNESSES

 

When we recruit this year..I would like to be able to realize any holes USF is trying to fill. 

 

Dummy Games and scimmages makes DUMMIES out of all of us.

 

Go Bulls

 

 

It's a single scrimmage.  And, more, a showcase for fans. 

 

The numerous other practices that will likely be of no interest to most fans will serve adequately to prove to Coach where recruiting is needed.  

 

Let the kids, the fans, and the media have this day.  Sheesh!

Ok and at the First game we will all be surprised by BS...Please NO...We had too many excusses in the past. 

 

I wan't HOPE and it might be tough...but that's better then "THE ROSEY PATH": of BS.

 

Go Bulls

Lol.  What? 

 

Not to diminish your point, but I am having trouble comprehending.  

 

My point is simply that this single scrimmage, the one made for the entertainment of the fans, may not be indicative of the coaching strategy applied during all other scrimmages/practices. 

 

Please, have faith.  It's healthy.  I swear :)

Ok

 

It's hard for me to clean the Skippy out of my body..it was so much BS that I could not believe a single word after a while.  Hence my desire to see some ACTUAL QUALITY...

 

So much was promissed..We were going to the next level..We did go the the next level straight down      I can accept a certiain amount of Frosting but I has choking on the quantity..

 

Go Bulls

everyone hating on Coach T for setting a nice attendance goal sounds like a bunch of Skip Holtzes.  Maybe he should set the expectations lower so we can be sure to meet them.  And if we could get some participation trophies that would be great too. 

 

There are people on this thread "hating" on him??

yep, there are multiple people ITT making light of his optimistic goal/challenge. 

 

Making light is the same as "hating" on him?? Just a wee bit sensitive, are we .....?

Yes, responding to your coaches ambition and positivity with a dismissive attitude will be henceforth know as "hating" on this board.  Put it in your notebook.

Alright, I understand you now. 

 

I think the Spring Game should be taken with a grain of salt.

 

Even if it was ones-on-ones, its too early to really take much of substance from it.  Soo.... 

 

If next year is a total failure, then perhaps we need to demand something different. 

 

But, for now, lets all embrace the exuberance of our Coach.  And enjoy things.  For once!

The Spring Game got an article on NBCSports.com. I can't recall the last time that happened.

What's the name of the article? I couldn't find it ..... but did discover that West Virginia is jumping conferences again. http://m.nbcsports.com/college-football

 

 

LOL. I clicked that too, thinking WTF???  Somebody's got a lotta splainin to do...

In addition, Lynch negotiated the opportunity to be involved in some special situations on offense so be ready come the Spring Game.

 

Aaron Lynch's offensive play during the Spring Game:

 

AL lined up at QB

Throws a screen to Andre Davis

Who then throws it back to AL who ran downfield during a WR pass

AL catches it and pitches it back to Shaw

AL blocks a couple people then gets the ball back pitched back by Shaw

AL runs it in for a TD

 

Calling it.

I call BS. We all know AL will take the snap and throw it deep to AL who is streaking down the sideline for a touchdown.

 

Don't forget that AL blocks the entire defensive line and keeps them out of the backfield giving AL time to throw.

I have folowed some of Willie T's post on injuries.  I am concerned about our depth and our physical conditioning. 

 

IMO Injuries occur for many reasons ---I believe a lot of it depends on physical conditioning and discipline..  IMO  a  legacy of our past coach. 

 

 I believe that most people on this blog wan't nothing more than USF to reach the top level and we can disagree on the best road to take.

 

  I agree having a player get hurt in a scrimmage is horrible and does not make sense.  I just hope we are in better physical condition.

It is easy to be cynical and just say "we're usf, we'll never get 10, 000 people there." Much harder to tell the fanbase that he expects that many. Rather set expectations and fail than the opposite.

I  never worried about the fan base.  I know it was important and over the years I would comment to my wife how great it was to fill the stands.

 

I remember when the upper tier at Raymond James was upened up for the first time .  I thought we had arrived..

 

I look at this as a negative "BURP" we will get over it.
