I know Chunn is hurt so on Taxi squad at moment for Birmingham. The crowd reminds me of the crowds on the movie Major league. Not sure if others think this could wind up being the G5 of the NFL? Does anyone know if any other Trojan involved?
Kind of reminds me of my wife’s favorite movie “the replacement’s “

Does anyone know if any other Trojan involved? Kind of reminds me of my wife’s favorite movie “the replacement’s “ I kept up with the USFL Draft to see how many Trojans were given a chance … Steven Rowzee by New Orleans and Jordan Chunn by Birmingham was it 😢 I know there have been roster changes by all teams since their draft, but have not heard of any additional Trojans.

I just looked up the salaries for USFL. If you are on the active roster, you can do well if the weekly pay I saw was for 52 weeks. Otherwise, risk vs reward should be considered. <- in my dumb opinion.

Saw that structure too. About 45,000 for season and about 70k if plays all the way thru the championship (if they win). We will see if this years bubble structure with all in Birmingham plays out from here.

Only problem with the league is Birmingham will draw well but the rest of the teams won't draw flies. I can't see Pittsburgh, Tampa Bay, Michigan, Houston, NJ fans travelling to B-Ham every week. It's a shame because back in the original USFL when the Old Ball Coach was with the Bandits they would outdraw the Bucs. I was in HS but I was a huge Bandit Ball fan.

I read somewhere that until the league gets good and steady on its feet, their major focus is the number of eyeballs watching, not butts in the seats. Happy to see the Stallions again!

When I was single digit age, we lived near Jacksonville and would go to the Bulls game. I remember when the team was being formed and they asked the public to name the team. I wanted them to be the Jacksonville Jedi but I suppose Lucas would have sued over that. I also I had a friend who's dad was a cop and he had a girlfriend that was a cheerleader for the bulls and the Jacksonville Tea-Men. She would bring home all kinds of free shirts and stuff for us. That was cool. My buddy got to visit the locker room and meet the team, but I didn't get to go.
