#USF on-campus stadium updates from Athletics CEO Rob Higgins:

[mithil vyas @mithil__vyas]

USF football had 33 outgoing players compared to 44 incoming in the transfer portal, according to 247Sports.

Men’s basketball saw 10 outgoing while 11 came in.

[mithil vyas @mithil__vyas]

#FSU BOT Chair Peter Collins said the transfer portal system prompts player movement because agents profit when athletes switch schools.

“There is zero incentive for an agent today to have their client who is in the portal stay in the university they are at,” he said.

On April 30, the Florida BOG Task Force on Intercollegiate Athletics saw speakers discuss possible solutions for college sports — including agent certification rules and collective bargaining frameworks after professional leagues.

@SMW4214 @usforaclesports @NVinsky @CNN @MSNOWNews What’s the misinformation here?

[mithil vyas @mithil__vyas]

@SSN_USF True, and also mentioned in the story.

[mithil vyas @mithil__vyas]

@SMW4214 @usforaclesports @NVinsky This is not a hit piece. And no, we do not own homes as we are 20-year old college students.

@gblackman38 @usforaclesports @NVinsky Hi Gary. We know this, as it’s in the story. The purpose was to showcase USF did something about it.

[mithil vyas @mithil__vyas]

@NVinsky’s last story for @usforacle.

Glad to have had him as my mentor the past two years.

Go give it a read:

#USF’s on-campus stadium is one of the most ambitious projects in university history.

But, engineers have identified sinkhole-prone soil conditions at the Sycamore Fields site since early development.

#USF Athletics CEO Rob Higgins just mentioned how college rivalries — especially with football — can help revenue-sharing at the Board of Governors meeting.

Brought up the idea of “reinstating” some rivalries.

[Rob Higgins @RHiggins_USF]

The inferiority complex is over. Gas over brakes. Results over potential. Bulls Nation over everything!!!🤘🏻😤📈

Is #USF a stepping-stone program?

Athletics CEO Rob Higgins certainly doesn’t think so.

@TheUSFWizard @usforaclesports Had a great time with it, glad you enjoyed!

Higgins said the perception problem isn’t new.

What’s different now, in his view, is how aggressively #USF is trying to outgrow it.

“We can’t control the narrative that [people] may have in their head, but we can work really hard to defeat that narrative,” he said.

[USF Oracle Sports @usforaclesports]

#USF CEO of Athletics Rob Higgins is working to eliminate the perception that USF is a stepping-stone program and has the ability to win national championships.

“USF deserves to be a destination and not a pit stop," Higgins said.

Among the newer setups was a booth from Sports Interactive and SEGA — highlighting Football Manager 26 for the first time.

The game’s setup centered on a challenge where participants chose a starting lineup and tactics on a tablet before facing a simulated opponent.

Long before sunrise, fans lined the Tampa Riverwalk outside Armature Works for the Premier League Mornings Live fan festival.

Over 15,000 fans amassed from April 18-19 as the two-day event marked the league’s 12th stop in the U.S.

One #USF professor said the changes show a growing push by state leaders to limit how some topics like inequality are taught.

“Open and free conversation should be the standard,” they said. “Any attempts to legally control that strikes me as uneducated and un-American.”

[The Oracle @usforacle]

Florida’s BOG voted to remove introductory sociology courses from gen ed curriculum in August.

#USF faculty and students warn the change could limit access, reduce enrollment and weaken interdisciplinary learning.
