Come on guys. At least do your homework when criticizing other points of view. Look at the USF roster. A significant number of USF players are from Miami . No way they went "home to help their families prepare".I don't think they cared about the distraction.
I think the logistics of trying to move 200 people and a tractor trailer full of gear into and out of an area where a few million people are also in motion was the issue.
And like Miami, I think they also had to be mindful of letting the kids go to help their families prepare.
