USF coach overruled by boosters

[utvolpj]

A former player was murdered in Ybor city so the coach made it off limits. Hours later the AD, after fielding calls from angry boosters, reversed the decision. I'm sure it's not the first time but this is pretty blatant money over safety

Not sure what to say but it is interesting.

Ybor City can get pretty dangerous late night/early morning. Interesting subplots in this whole thing.

There's more ways to get killed in Ybor City than in Beirut.

I've never heard of it, but must be a rough place.

Where?

Tampa bedroom community. Home to clubs and cigars. Pronounced E-bore City. Had a coworker who repeatedly called it Why-bore City no matter how many times I corrected him.
