Actually Cuban.. This is a pretty big **** Up on USF's part. Thread worthy.

It's stupid and a little embarassing, but I wouldn't call it big since it has been corrected. I'm guessing student gov wasn't aware who we were playing since this is the first time we've been in a conference with ECU and it was over looked until someone called them out on it. Supposedly, for some reason, purple has been on the shirt for the last couple of years for homecoming. It's fixed and green shirts will be given out. When I came on this board to see if you guys were talking about it, I knew a UCif'er would be the one to start a thread on this and what do you know...

UCF and USF are in state rivals..so we post this kind of shiznit. You Golden Brahman Bulls should be used to it by now.

Really?

I meant the students. They are only on campus for 4-5 years and are not used to playing ECU every year. C-USA was a long time ago. The average student doesn't know who we were in C-USA with or that we were even in a conference called that.

I think they're contractually obligated to make a post complaining whenever a UCF fan mentions South Florida.

At least it seems that way because they do it every single time.

Judging by USF's attendance, truer words have never been spoken. Surprised they even knew there was a sporting event associated with homecoming.

Dude, this is really embarrassing. All they needed to do was look at the schedule. If they couldn't be bothered to do two seconds of research to make sure the homecoming opponent's colors didn't include purple, it doesn't bode well for USF.

Doh!

Did athletics create the shirts? You guys are making this a bigger deal than it really is.
At the end of the day it has zero bearing on the game outcome or attendance.

Never said anything about athletics. Just think it isn't a good look for USF students. Doesn't show that they are clued in to what's going on.

That's true, because the Pirates are going to swashbuckle your bull hides.

Pour me a cup too...

Here's an interesting thread from USF message board on this phenomenon. I really don't think it's that big of a deal but apparently the folks at USF do.

http://thebullspen.com/topic/98059-we-ma...onal-news/

"Wow! Just wow! Really shows the level of engagement the student body has with the football team.

Students will be wearing purple shirts in an end zone with a pirate ship. Go ahead and paint the ECU logos in the end zone and call it a day.

What a joke!"

"Playing in a Buc stadium is going to be HOMECOMING for ECU..."

"We are USF and our school colors are green and gold. Why the hell would we even consider a different color?"

"Am I the only one wondering why it would be purple regardless of who we are playing?"

"Everyone makes mistakes...
Yes, but those other schools do not make the news ONLY for mistakes/gaffes."

"Who actually approved this? Serious question. Any help is appreciated."

"If it's any help, in my four years at USF the homecoming colors always included purple. They probably just stuck with it for years and didn't think twice."

"I'm not one to overreact to stupid things, but this mistake is ridiculous. I hope no students are dumb enough to wear these to the game and if they are dumb enough, hopefully they have friends that tell then, 'Take that **** off, what r u thinking.' "

"They should sell the purple ones at the game to visiting ECU fans so they can make some of their money back!"

"This can't be real"

"I'm just catching up on this thread... but your excuse is BULL ****. These are COLLEGE STUDENTS... seriously we can't expect that on that committee they SHOULD KNOW WHO THE OPPONENT AND WHAT THEIR COLORS ARE? Good lord... really?"

"So obviously that means the AAC has a mole in USF student government. They deliberately scheduled ECU for our homecoming game after USF decided to make purple shirts."

"At least we don't play in TDECU stadium."

"If I were a player I would feel betrayed by the fan base.....

I guess many fans feel this way already."

"Maybe our players will get confused and play like ECU"

Laugh all you want but from a psychiatric perspective. It's pure genius.

Just tell your team which is made up of predominately Juniors and Sophomores, that their fans are the guys/gals in purple. Add a ton of screaming ECU fans wearing purple and these young players will be charged up by the overwhelming support.

Dude, get over yourself. Someone is a position of power messed up. Nothing BAD happened. No arrests. Nothing like that. Bite your tongue and take it with a smile. It is good ribbing.

I know I'm not the only one that loves 'Bull ****' USF puns.
