Ok I’m about to say something unique about south Florida : their cheerleading team just won their 3rd and back to back to back college cheerleading championship in January of this year
USF has had 6 eras: 1997-2004: Origins and building the program 2005-2010: The "golden era" of the Bulls. Upset Auburn, FSU, Miami, #2 in the nation 2010-2014: Skip Holtz destroys the program 2015-2018: Willie Taggart and Quinton Flowers lead the resurrection; 2 straight 10-win seasons 2018-2022: Charlie Strong and Jeff Scott destroy the program 2023: Alex Golesh and Byrum Brown give us hope for the future
18 years as a season tix holder... The 2009 Bulls was LOADED. 9 NFLers. I wonder what would have happened if Leavitt stayed. Holtz didn't know how to recruit. He missed a Junior's Day Open House for recruits to play in charity golf event in Tahoe. Willie should have stayed another couple more years at USF as he was not ready for the bigger jobs. Strong went ROAD: Retired On Active Duty and coasted on the back of Flowers. Scott was in over his head. All he knows is 'The Clemson Way' Golesh is doing great. I didn't think he could so much in just 1 season. Future looks bright.
@@larryd9549 Good assessment of the coaches. It was so disappointing to see Taggert leave before his team fully bloomed. I blame him for the big decline and not achieving their 1st conference title.
I am a Oregon fan who recently moved a lil' south of Tampa. So, moved to USF territory. Didnt know much about the team. A great time for this video. Obviously not giving up on Oregon. But nothing wrong with rooting for your local team.
They were so much fun to watch during leavitt beating upsetting huge teams like fsu, West Virginia, Notre Dame, Miami. They're located in a hot recruiting bed to they can always stay competitive as long as they have a competent coach
I remember hanging around the campus in those prime Leavitt days and USF really seemed like the next big school in the state, not UCF. Hopefully Golesh can keep the momentum going because it's great to see the smaller schools in state doing well (Go Canes 🙌🏾)
I would say USF and UCF are not small schools. Enrollment is 50000 and both located in hot recruiting beds. They can always be competitive given the opportunity with the right coach.
He knows UCF is now power 5, I think he meant for the time when they both were G5. UCF is extremely popular and is in a great location in Orlando, with huge support not only from the students and administrators but also Orlando and across the nation. Due to their huge investments in creating a renowned athletic program.
Love my Bulls and this new team has a lot of potential, but lets be honest our secondary this past season was soft as microwave butter. Def need changes there if we want to be competitive.
I disagree a little bit with the narrator. Yes UCF is winning against us now, but we're not their punching bag. Most of those games have been competitive and could have easily gone the other way. I miss the WAR on I4 and I think most UCF fans miss it too.

My kid was a college cheerleader. Those girls outwork any sport, ever , hands down..

@@beammeupscottsp7952yes during taggert time too. i used to live just east of campus.
We have that Taggert connection.
The players often frequent a local business I operate.
Very good group of kids, kind, and invested/Involved in the community..
They are sleeping giants. I think they are legitimate playoff contenders for the G5 spot next season
I agree
Amen Brother! 🤘
Imagine UCF winning the big 12 next season and going up against USF in the 12 team playoff
We will be there
@@fallenherothebasedlegend5723you will not be there. You guys are the cockiest fanbase in the big 12
Now we're talking!
Imagine UCF finishing middle of the big 12 standings and having to watch USF make the playoff before they do
@@XconnorX11that’s what I’m saying😂. We got the 2nd best recruitment class in Florida. Over the gators, fsu and ucf
It’s nice to be excited again. I miss seeing Quinton Flowers, and Marlon Mack tearing it up.
USF COMMIT HERE!! WE on the RISE❤️🔥

@@beammeupscottsp7952 they were both G5, this has nothing to do with enrollment (I literally was hanging there so obviously I knew this)
@@rpeterson1989 gotcha, I thought UCF is in the big 12 now though?
@@beammeupscottsp7952 now but they were a bad MAC or CUSA team in those days

Using them in Dynasty. Beat Alabama in the quarterfinal and lost to OSU in the semis. 37th ranked recruiting class heading into 2025
Love my Bulls and this new team has a lot of potential, but lets be honest our secondary this past season was soft as microwave butter. Def need changes there if we want to be competitive.
This team surprisingly had Alabama close for 3 quarters. This program is definitely on the rise.
Their offensive line didn’t want to play that day
this will be my CFB25 rebuild team

Go Bulls!
