Here we go again...Mike Bianchi
- Thread starter MaroonCrusader
- Start date
We’ve combined for 3 big 6 bowl games. I have a hard time believing UCF & USF would have combined for 4 or 5 over the same time period.
What is interesting is this guy makes no mention of the 2015, 2016 UCF seasons where they went 6-19.
Also, their game vs GT got canceled. I think they lose that game and then no one is even talking about them.
Just like clockwork .. he writes this same recycled crappy meme article every 3 years.
FYI .. Scott Frost appears to be a fantastic coach BUT he WILL be hired away from UCF by end of the year and they will go back to sucking at football.

I honestly wish no one would respond to it. He's an attention ***** that is just fishing for attention.
I will say the though, he's probably right about being in the right place at the right time. I doubt we would both be in the conference if things were getting started from scratch right now.
But what he's wrong about is fan support. Pretty much every UCF and USF alumni I know either does not keep up with sports or is a Florida, Florida State or Miami fan.

Gaaah, take out the hyperlink and don't give the attention ***** attention.
Dumbass does not realize that the SEC bylaws make it all but impossible to kick out charter members of the Conference. Additionally his alma mater (Florida) would have veto power over another college in Florida being admitted to the SEC & they would never be convinced to have their red-headed bastard step-brother placed on an equal financial level with them. His argument would have more credibility if he said they should replace Rutgers, Illinois, Indiana, or Northwestern in the Big 10 which currently has zero presence in Florida or that UCF & USF should be additions to the Big 12.
Yes, he is a moron. Here are a few interesting facts:
Past 5 years vs P5:
MSU 22-22 (and our P5's have been considerably better than theirs)
USF 3-18 (2 of those 3 wins vs a terrible Syracuse)
UCF 4-10
And in those seasons average SOS (according to teamrankings.com):
MSU 26
USF 69
UCF 73
Mike, how is it your Florida schools have played much, much weaker schedules, yet have much worse records, particularly vs P5?

Any SEC member, charter or not, can be kicked out with a 3/4 vote. There's no special provision for charter members. Still pretty close to impossible. It'd take 11 votes and you know the school in question is going to be a no. So really, it'd take 11 out of 13 schools to vote a school out.
Mr. Bianchi:
If by some miracle a vote were to occur on whether to offer UCF admission to the SEC, they would get a yes vote from us and Ole Miss waaaaay before the University of Florida ever gave one second's worth of consideration to this. At least petition the people who are actually stopping your fantasy from coming true.
The SEC is not a commuter school conference.

Overall records with their schedules for past 5 years:
USF 28-34
UCF 37-29
Looking at those schedules, I think it is safe to say we would most likely have gone somewhere in the neighborhood of:
50-12
59-7

UCF 37-29

Thanks for not including Purdue! The author of the article clearly has no idea what he is talking about. Fortunately, there are multiple sports which keep schools in conferences and not just football.
With those types of requirements necessary, allegiances among schools would make this quite impossible. I'm sure there are unspoken agreements between say State, Ole Miss, and LSU that would they would never vote for this to occur to each other. The only school I can possibly imagine being vulnerable to this happening in any realistic scenario is Missouri. This is why all the talk of Ole Miss being booted from the SEC is pie in the sky. It would take a scandal involving capital crimes on a wide scale to invoke dismissal.
He mentioned it on the radio show this morning.
He completely skips over SEC culture. UCF is like a California beach bum school. The fans know hardly anything about the sport and their fans are flip flop wearing meat heads and the girls are all fake as **** with fake tits and care more about their snap chat status than anything else.
Look at Mizz. They suck in the SEC and have a horrible culture.
UCF wouldn't fit in the SEC. That's just a fact. They should try and join the ACC.
I live in Orlando btw.

And Mike, your higher ranked team, #18 USF is 5-0. If we had played your schedule, we would no doubt also be 5-0, and probably ranked higher than #18.
We already have a Florida team. You would bring very little in football relative to what we already get in the SEC.
And looking at, "Big 3 sports", your junior-circuit programs don't really bring anything there. Though our basketball program has been rebuilding the past few seasons, our history is far better than your schools, and we are in better shape going forward with Ben Howland at the helm.
Baseball? Well now, we're an elite baseball program about to get even better, probably for decades to come. You have nothing to offer against us there, either.
Yes, our fans have called you, "moron", "imbecile", "idiot", etc. But if the shoe fits...wear it.

I wouldn't be surprised if he got some serious looks from SEC schools, which would be pretty hilarious--If Mullen leaves, we could certainly do worse. He just blew the doors off of the previous flavor of the month, Mike Norvell.
If he wants to lobby on someone to get kicked out of SEC, he should focus on Mizzou.... I would vote for that.
Who cares? He's like that Joe nobody who runs for president every four years. Not going to make a lick of difference in the real world.
As far as I know, we've only played either of those teams once. And guess who won ....
Also, they have the rudest fans I've ever seen, and that includes Bear fans.

1997 was Duante Culpepper's SR season. Never played South Florida.
After the 2007 Liberty Bowl, Mrs. DBV and I went back to our Memphis hotel to grab a bite to eat. It took forever to get any food, and this couple wearing USF gear sat next to us. I'll always be thankful I didn't open with the line, "Man, y'all woulda had a shot if your quarterback wasn't so awful." It was the dude's parents. They were super nice, said he was super crushed. He was a senior who'd had an offer to go try out for some indoor team but was going to go do an internship at a TV station instead. So he'd stunk up the place in his finale. I was thankful my couth kicked in at the appropriate time.
If things started from scratch, right now, nobody would have any history, it would be pure demographics. Alabama and Auburn might not make the cut.
