USF is 6-0.

It wasn't pretty.

We got off to a very slow start on the road and trailed 1-10.

Final score: USF 74 Butler 59.

BULLS WIN!!! A 74-59 win at Butler!!! #BullsUnite
Now it sounds like you are supporting a serious team! :)
When fans start complaining about style points it indicates the final score is already assumed and the quality of play has become the important evaluation. Go BULLS! :cool:

USF had some struggles last year playing on the road, and I was nervous for them when I saw that slow start. Butler, based on its performance so far this season (losses to some extremely beatable teams), shouldn't have been making this so interesting. But what matters is they recovered. Good win in the end.

I realize that it is still relatively early in the season and USF has not been tested under fire against any ranked teams.

However, I would be interested in reading comments made by UCONN fans on what, if any, thoughts they have about our current USF team, up to this point, and whether they are different from what they had anticipated prior to the season.

I know that UCONN WBB will have a reality TV show airing soon.

I was surprised to read on twitter today that USF WBB will also be doing a TV series starting in January.

The player in the above picture is freshman Tamara Henshaw. She has already made a significant impact playing under the basket by rebounding well and providing additional scoring.

Cool - do you know who is producing your series?
Jose and the USF admin have done a really good job building the program - this kind of publicity is great for expanding the local market. The involvement by our local PBS station early on - broadcasting games and then expanding into a coaches show and specials about the program was huge in building the team into a statewide treasure.
They also broke new ground nationally - no PBS station had ever tried it, and it became their biggest grossing fundraising platform and the envy of the rest of the country's stations.

At this time, I know nothing else about the show. I have not found any related articles.

It could be produced by WUSF which is our local PBS station.

When I learn more, I'll post it here.

Shows how little I know.

The series began last year and I never saw it.

I'll go back and watch some of those episodes.

FINALLY back in action Sunday at Arkansas State. #United

I believe the player in the above photo is freshman D Nagy from Hungary. She was our highest rated (5-star) member of this class. She has been playing about 12 mpg, but still adjusting to the US college game. She could become more of a factor as the season progresses.

We may get a chance to see JUCO AA PG N. DeJesus for the first time in this game, following knee surgery.

Another rough start on the road.

Lots of home cooking by the refs.

UF beat them there by 11 points.

We won by 19.

FINAL | USF rolls past Arkansas State 78-59 to remain perfect. Bulls improve to 7-0. NEXT USF returns to Tampa 12/14.

Got to stop messing around at the start of games - it will kill you against a better team.

I think we need to start freshman Tamara Henshaw in the post.

Senior K.Weber has been starting, so far this season. However Tamara, has been playing many more mpg.

Henshaw is a much better all around post player, both on defense and offense.

When she comes in, we usually get rolling.

Tonight for example, she was the game leading rebounder with 10 and also scored 8 points off the bench.

Holy mackerel. USF just scored 101 in the first 3 quarters on St. Francis of PA.

That's gotta be some kind of record.
