There is only 1... The Babe Ruth of wrestling, Hulk Hogan.
Sent from my SM-G935V using CSNbbs mobile app
He never graduated. He dropped out.
Most famous USF grad. For years that name probably belonged to Gallagher.
A more recent notable name is Mark Meadows NC Congressman who is the news a lot for being the Chairman of the Freedom Caucus.
Riiight.
My point = proven.
lol I'm enjoying this, but...
What about JPP with the Giants? He's most well known for blowing up his own hand with some fireworks. I believe he has a franchise tag with the Giants.

Considering ucf is the 2nd largest school and will probably become the largest soon, I beg to differ. We also consistently have better fb attendance than Cincinnati.
Plus UFC is a large brand for younger kids.

Slow your roll Rutgers fan... so you're saying Buffalo is sexy and Memphis isn't?!?
Academically and market size Buffalo impresses me - I vote YAY
Yikes, can't believe this Texan here just gave the Yankees my YAY vote.

You've been saying that every offseason since 2010.
Lol we were 8 & 1 against Disney U until 2010 and yall started to even the series since then. Funny how you pick 2010 as your bench mark.
Don't worry slick, kick us while we're down, we'll be back. At least in our worst year we still beat our FCS gimme game as well as a P5 team.
Looking forward to your gimme FCS game this year...Go Dukes!

Lots know of UCF but primarily due to Blake Bortles, Culpepper, and Fiesta Bowl.
No one has ever heard of FAU, and like I said they think USF is FIU.
"Oh south florida -- that school in miami that TY Hilton went to --love them!" Get that kind of line a lot.
You'll find whatever you want to find.

UCF has an identity, USF does not. Outside of Florida, I don't think anyone could tell you the difference between USF, UNF, FAU, FIU, and FGCU. There's no reason the keep paying 2x for this combo, when only 1 is pulling their weight. Drop USF, and I doubt anyone would even notice.
ECU fans are great people, but every time I look at any the standings, regardless of sport, the 1 constant is that ECU is in last place.
Again Kronke makes some excellent points.

Sunbelt might talke the u_f generics. Tulane is the mckauly culkin school, i didn't realize they were still in the conf. I guess keep them for few years to pad the schedule. Im not sure why navy is here, they need to be practicing sailing or something. We could go to 8 and get some stellar ooc games and cut the football money 8 ways.
Seperate the wheat from the chaff. Needs to be done.
If it was the Hidden Valley Ranch conference ... it would definitely make more money than the current MVC does.

Please let us stay for just one season. Then you can kick us out. I need this. I've paid to watch too many "games" against Drake.

I'm still not sure which one is in Tampa and which one is in Orlando.
To be sure all you have to do is remember which team has beaten Memphis the last 8 times we played.

AAC isn't kicking Wichita State out, not yesterday today or tomorrow.
