We're Back!

It has been 1 year,1 month, and 2 days since Bullievable sports has been working. But guess what...we're back bitches!! Can you believe the last time we posted on here, USF was just getting ready to start a new season. Well I will give you the readers digest. We got off to another great start, choked it down the stretch, went to the magic jack (what the hell is magic jack anyways) bowl and dominated Memphis. Typical over the last few years. This year the expectations are the same, win the Big East Title. Well through the first three games it was looking great, smooth sailing and a 59-0 win over Charleston southern. then tragedy struck. The man who had been the face of our program for the last 4 years went down and screamed while grabbing his knee. We knew the worst had happened. Matt Grothe was done for the year and his career at USF was over 3 games into his senior season with a torn ACL. Let the downward spiral begin right? NOPE. Enter BJ Daniels. The freshman came in and stole the show. He finished off the CS game and then set his sights on in state foe, FSU or I like fswho. Although I can't dog them too much because the town has lots of these. A stellar performance and the 12,000 USF fans left Doak Campbell Stadium chanting BJ Daniels, BJ Daniels, BJ Daniels. 17-7 win. His game is good and he looks like a perfect college QB. We should be excited bullies! It appears that USF has the flair it had back in 2007. I was there to see every game then and I will be there to see every game now. Call me crazy but this season feels very similar to 2007. first big test in 07 road game @ Auburn. Tough SEC team. This year road game @ fswho. both teams were ranked around 18 and the bulls unranked. After a bulls victory, we were still shafted by the polls and unranked the next week. Then just a few weeks later we became ranked and beat West Virginia, a top 10 team. This year the schedule is setting up for the same scenario. But with a different team. Cincinnati. They are ranked 10 right now but by October 15th, they should be 7,8, or 9 and USF in the top 25. It seems like 2009 could be just like 2007 when we got as high as #2 in the nation and gained lots of attention. This year however, we are poised to cap off a great season and take home the Big East Title. This is the year Bulls fans. Welcome back to bullievable sports and get ready for one wild ride.

NEW POST ON EPIC

Epic Carnival post. An all sports draft and the top 10 picks. This would be very interesting if it actually happened.


Also props goes out to Mike Jenkins and Trae Williams, formerly bulls, now a Cowboy and a Jaguar. Good luck guys.

Attention Bulls Fans:

Yesterday as we all know was nation signing day for high school seniors and Juco college players to make their selection of where they will be playing football next season. This years recruiting class for USF seems to be a good one.
Some of the standouts we acquired are 4 star QB BJ Daniels from Lincoln HS in Tally. He has a great arm and is a dual threat QB. This will be a good fit for USF. He can learn under current star QB Matt Grothe and also become a challenger to him in practice. Competition is a good thing. Grothe is the starter, don’t freak out people but with Daniels now at USF, we can all feel better about the second option. Another star player we landed was JUCO player David Bedford. The 6'5 240 Defensive end is one of the top DE in this year’s class, and he still has 3 years left...Saweet!! He is expected to be a player just like George Selvie and play opposite him on the D line. This is going to be scary with those two out there...opposing QB's get your icy hot ready. I have heard that they could be the best DE tandem in all of college football this year. Kion Wilson was another 4 star player USF landed to play linebacker. He also will have 3 years remaining and should turn out to be a threat to start his first year. All in all, this years class was good for USF. They went after positions we needed and Head Coach Jim Leavitt said "USF football will never be the same after this year."
Man football is great. I can’t wait for next season.

I know its getting tough to watch

USF basketball is getting harder and harder to like. OK first of all let me make this clear. I am in no way giving up on the team, I love USF sports of all kind and I will support them. What makes it tough as a fan is the fact that we are not getting any better...especially when the hype seemed so much higher this season. Tonight I think the final straw broke for me. Watching USF play Louisville at the Sun Dome, I was pulling out my hair watching our team try to do anything. We can't score for one. We have some good talented players but our offensive plays look awful. There is not enough movement out there. Next, if we face a full court press, we fold like really cheap suits. I mean we can barely dribble the ball past half court. Its rough. The last thing I want to rant about is FREE throws. WOW they are FREE what a concept. We must think they cost hundreds of dollars cause we don't seem to want to make them at all. Please USF, turn this around, show some positive headway for the next couple years and the future. I know that we have a new coach and the players we have are not ones he may have recruited but Division 1 players are Div. 1. They should be relative affective. The things we need help on are not rocket science, we just need to practice them more. Yeah, I'm talkin about...practice, not a game, practice!

Maybe

Wow are we really this sad?

So last night I was eating dinner and listening to my roommates talk about college football when she mentioned that ESPN must really be hurting for stories. They put out a list of top 10 disappointments and number 1 is Dennis Dixon's knee injury. Thats fair enough. Then she said just go look at number 8. So this morning before I get ready for class I decided to read it and I was shocked to see that this was their 8th best thing they could have written about:

8. A messy break: Ben Moffitt was one of the best linebackers in the country. The USF standout also was seen as a symbol of the rising Bulls program, a blue-collar guy who commuted every day, driving more than 100 miles round-trip in his Toyota Yaris from the home he shared with his wife, Shauna, and their two children. But in January, things got ugly for the couple. Newspaper reports said Moffitt left his wife and was filing for a divorce, which prompted Shauna Moffitt to come back with some hefty charges that her husband didn't do his work to earn his grades, saying, "Ben Moffitt has never written a paper. Never. Ever. I love him, but he doesn't know how to spell. He cheats." Shauna Moffitt's sister told the Tampa Tribune that she also wrote papers for Ben. Their mother then said that she knew both of them were doing it. Both sisters e-mailed the Tampa Tribune copies of the papers they said they wrote for Ben. Worse still, Shauna said that a South Florida graduate assistant, Patrick St. Louis, told her when she visited the South Florida football offices on Dec. 3: "I know your name should be on that diploma. I know you did all the work."

REALLY?! the 8th most disappointing thing of this past season? Not the fact that combined Notre Dame and Alabama didn't have as many wins as Kansas. Well I'm for certain shocked and to me ESPN has to look at some of the crap they put out on their website. I know I'm defending a Bull and thats kind of homerish but still the 8th most disappointing thing of the season I think not.

I love salsa...if it comes like this

Thanks to our friends over at More Credible, this lovely video of a couple USF tailgaters dancing to salsa can be enjoyed by all. (I'm not going to tell the guys at morecredible that I have already seen this video a while ago cause it might hurt their feelings, but we thank them anyways) Oh and btw, if these girls for some strange reason may be readers of this blog, call us. We would love to talk.

USF vs Pittsburgh in the Sun Dome

The USF Bulls will be on ESPN2 tonight playing host to 20Th ranked Pittsburgh. The bulls are under the leadership of new head coach Stan Heath who only took one game to win his first Big East Conference game...much unlike the last guy. Anyways hope to see all my bulls at the sun dome, everyone else watch it on TV. Go Bulls!

Its been too long

I know it has been way too long since I have done a post. Let me give you a recap of whats been going on. I left Friday night to head to Tampa for the Bowl game. Saturday morning we flew out to El Paso. After Oregon kicked our ass, we headed to Vegas then home. I am now fully back in the eastern time zone, for a while I was all messed up because I was in 4 time zones in 1 day! The game was disappointing for a USF fan. The time we spent there was fun but just with the team would have played a little better. It happens, layoffs suck. To the seniors on our team we are really going to miss you especially Mike Jenkins, Trae Williams, and Ben Moffitt. Good luck in the NFL guys. I stumbled across this song on my plane ride home and it seemed to fit well with the times. This is my dedication to the USF nation and Leavitt Town. We will be back again...don't worry. We have come a long way in our very short existence.

For all you FSU "fans"

It was brought to my attention the other night by a fan who knows very little that FSU is better and could beat USF. After thinking it over he was right!! FSU is much better... at cheating than USF is!! 20 Florida State Football players will be suspended for cheating on an Internet based course. No you don't say, no way could that happen.

"As many as 20 Florida State football players will be suspended from playing against Kentucky in the Dec. 31 Gaylord Hotels Music City Bowl, as well as the first three games of the 2008 season, for their roles in an alleged cheating scandal involving an Internet-based course, a source with knowledge of the situation said Tuesday morning."

This is another sign that Bobby Bowden is just there to collect his paycheck and recruit more criminals. He has no control over his team anymore. Bobby Bowden is without a doubt one of the best coaches of all time and I don't think this is his fault but its his time to leave.

So thanks for bringing this up to me Freddy, giving me some bulletin board material. There is no fuckin way Florida State could beat South Florida right now. They should just go back to the all girl school they once were, things just were better back then.

We had one helluva run bulls fans

Feel free to listen to this song as you read this post.

I will take some time out of my day to thank all of the USF fans, coaches, and players for a wild ride this year. Today we played our final regular season game and won 48-37 over Pitt. It was a season of streaks, won 6, lost 3, won 3. Final record 9-3 and ranked. This was a tremendous season for the very young bulls as we made our stake in the national spotlight. We became ranked for the first time this season and went as far as #2 in the nation. We beat West Virginia who might very well be this years national Champs(they are currently whoopin Uconn for the big east title game). We had a great win over Auburn on the road. We stuck it out most importantly. Now USF must come back to Tampa and play the waiting game to see which Bowl we end up at. I know I'm looking ahead but I know that USF will add to its list of achievements next season, we have a team full of young players including a handful of sophomore sensations. Thanks for all the support this year Bulls.

In honor of those at the Ville'

Disclaimer: We as USF Fans feel very bad about kicking your ass like that in Ray Jay this year and for it we send our deepest apologies. And if you believe anything im saying please don't. We love kicking your ass like its our job.

What a weekend it was

This was the weekend for me as far as sports go. To start it off, Saturday my USF bulls got the ball rolling with a 55-17 thrashing over losersville Louisville.
The game was never a contest, Nate Allen recovered a fumble on the opening kickoff and ran it in for the bulls first score, 8 seconds into the game.
After the whoopin in Ray Jay the Tampa Bay Bucs were in Hotlanta to take on the dirty birds. 31-7 later we have another victory and a hold of the NFC south lead thank you very much. At this point, the day was just getting started. Just a couple hours later, Matt Kenseth won the Nascar race but more importantly it gave me 3rd place in our nascar pool and 600 big ones. Thanks again Matt, we had a helluva ride this season. Just after the race in homestead and me makin it rain like PAC Man Jones in a strip club, I was watching the Orlando Magic beat the Boston Celtics (sorry Jon) to give boston their first loss of the season. Orlando also won friday night over the Nets which let me win a bet with my buddy ERN, you still owe me a drink btw. The USF men's basketball team scored an upset win over in-state foe Florida State. After the orlando win tonight. Go Bulls! Then if it couldn't get any better, my flag football scored a victory tonight! We are now 4-2 (I don't want to tell you that it was by forfeit because the other team didn't show)
I know I already posted this video a couple days ago but Damn, this is the song of the moment for me. I got to shine!

Update From Leavitt-Town

Please listen to Champion by Kanye West while reading this post.

With almost a week removed from our game against Big East rival Rutgers, the USF Bulls and their family of fans have moved on. We are far from done as I know many wish we were. Last week, we suffered the hardest loss in our programs history. I know we probably complained about the officiating a little too much for ya, but you would have done the same had you been in our shoes. I was so glad to see the refs blow the Louisville UConn game Saturday, just so we all know the Big East refs suck...its not just us complaining.
This week we move on to play that same UCONN team that kinda "stole their victory" last Saturday. They are now ranked 23rd in the BCS polls which is exactly what USF needs. We needed the chance to beat another ranked opponent so it will make us look better. Dont get me wrong, I think UCONN is having a helluva season, but so are we. All the pieces will fall into place after our game on Saturday 3:30 ABC. If West Virginia beats Rutgers, and we beat UCONN, USF will once again control our own destiny. The destiny of being Big East Champs.
Our team is focused on the title and our coach "Future Coach of the Year" Jim Leavitt has them primed. We have plenty of talent that can take us very far this season and beyond. Our sophomore sensations are going to give us Kool-Aid smiles for a couple more years. Grothe will continue to rock the Grohawk, and USF will rise to the top again. To all my faithfull bulls fans out there, throw up your bull horns. USF couldn't need you more right now, this is the time to step up. Show our pride, this is BULLS COUNTRY!!

Cry me a river...

OK here is my problem with all these BCS complaints. There are 119 teams in Division 1 college football many of which could be eligible for a BCS title if they are doing well. In the last 6 years or so, we have gotten accustomed to 10 teams that we see annually in the top 10. (USC, Texas, Miami, Florida, Notre Dame, Michigan, Ohio State, Virginia Tech, LSU, and Oklahoma.) Those teams have all got their share of bandwagoners and loyals and right now they are starting to cry like a kid who just was told they cant get that candy bar they wanted at the grocery store. GROW UP!!! There are plenty of other good teams out there who are going to have their share of good seasons.

When the feel good story happens in other sports like college basketball for example, people eat it up. Example: George Mason in 2005-2006. They made the unprobable run and made it to the final four, taking down some of the powerhouses in college basketball. However in USF's case this year, and Boston College, the feel good stories so far, people are jumping at the chance to throw us out like a skeet and shoot us down. ESPN's college gameday crew love to leave USF out of their top teams this year even though we have more than proven ourselves thus far. They pray every night that we choke. Epic Carnival claims that the teams in the top ten this year are frauds... They also claim that USF has no playmakers (obviously they dont know our team as well as they thought) and that we have a predictable running attack. Hmm that sounds a lot like Florida and their way too predictable running game of Tim Tebow. This year not so bad but last year was just stupid. He ran more that Forest Gump!

So here is my advice to all of you spoiled schools out there, Quit your bitchin, its only making you look bad. You have won your titles already and have your stars, celebrities and so forth. Let us bask in the glory for once.

Picture is of gurlybull and sterger! The lovely USF fans they are.
