Memphis is about to become Tier 1, as well as a Carnegie Research university.
I don't see how anybody can criticize what UCF has done in a relatively short period of time.
Congrats, Memphis! 
usf fans have been on a massive salt streak ever since we joined the same conference, as they’re slowly witnessing all their advantages over us wither away.

Wrong. Since we have joined the same conference USF has seen the greatest improvements in academia, fund raising, research, rankings and faculty.
Keep making up **** Gink, it's the only thing you are consistent at.
Have fun in your wave pool.
It’s true. usf has been called the “Harvard” of Ybor City.
Good one.
If you have nothing to counter, maybe don't post next time...
I don’t need to counter anything oh Czar of the message board. Lighten up Francis.

Wither away???....You mean how your academic ranking has been stagnant for the last couple years while USF jumped up by over 25 ranking spots and is now the #44 ranked Public institution in the US, how we are on track within 2 years to be top 100 ranked in the nation... or is it that we became Preeminent (1 of only 3 in the state of Florida) and now receive more funding than you while you struggle to even get 7 of the 12 requirements, or is it that our endowment is climbing and is over double yours.... or are you talking about how we are top 40 in research and do more than double yours... or is it patents where we are top 10 in the nation (for the fifth year in a row) while UCF hasnt even sniffed that level.... or is it how we have built our entire university system without having to Misappropriate over $100 million in state funds (cheating is kind your thing) or finally, was it the $1 Billion in our UnStoppabull campaign which lead us to building the finest college of education in downtown Tampa that smokes anything UCF has ever dreamed of building. (feel free to choose one or all of the above)
You can talk some crap about your football program, but when it comes to academics we stomp your silly community college like the peasant it is.

This guy is always ultra-triggered. Always.
"triggered" - term used by yuppie millenials, used for lack of originality and ability to process deeper meaning. Typically applied by those of lower education (ie: UCF grads, students and wannabes)
Nah. It's just used to describe people in constant hysterics such as yourself, especially when furiously typing run-on, rambling paragraphs complete with poor grammar and bad punctuation.

Its usually only acceptable if it is part of a phrasal verb. But at the same time....someone talking about bad grammar on a message board deserves their place in hell.
Sorry, "fellow tiger fan", but I don't call out grammar.... UNLESS it is in response to a "tool" talking academic trash to other fine university members of this conference, as was the case in this instance. IOW, "mind the plank in your eye before worrying about the speck in mine."

Sorry to disappoint you but "in" is the preposition, "wave pool" is a noun (person, place, or thing).

Regardless, it has always been acceptable to end a sentence with a preposition. Good try, though.

This.
Half the posts in this Memphis/UCF thread are now from usf fans. Remember when one of their fans said in another thread that UCF fans are obsessed with the cows. Hypocrisy at its finest.

usf posters are so quick to point out when a UCF fan posts on a usf thread and then scream "obsessed". So, why are these same usf posters now arguing about UCF on a thread that has nothing to do with usf?
