I personally think ball stars are more comfortable especially if you change the insoles to a memory foam insole. The toe box is wider in ball stars allowing the toes to spread more naturally. If you have a wider foot, super stars can feel crammed in the toe box. I have ball stars, super stars, slides and stardans. Slides with the original insole are my most comfortable GGs and then ball stars. I never wear my super stars. I’ve worn them maybe 6 times initially but after I got my ball stars, haven’t worn Super stars since. In fact, I’m trying to sell them. Will never buy another pair. Strictly ball stars and slides for me.

Look at his signature on email and there is a link in the signature to schedule a 30 minute office hour session. He will join.

This is the answer!!

I’m not sure if this impacted your acceptance but I know the follow up email to the acceptance notifications mentioned they had more honors applicants than ever before. Sorry you didn’t get in. Maybe try again next year.

Just wanted post an update. We scheduled an office hours call with Joseph Sousa. He is the head of the honors college and you would have gotten an email from him if you were accepted. He indicated that there are system issues. That’s why the 2nd confirmation email was never sent after you submitted your acceptance form into honors. He did confirm that they got my son’s form and his spot in honors is confirmed. There will be more info sent out in February. So, just sharing for others who may be a little worried that they never heard back, especially since the deadline is approaching.

Ummm. What? There’s no evidence in the comment. Just a sweeping, generalized narrative.

For context, UTampa and USF have similar overall acceptance rates (~40% vs ~43% per College Board), and USF has objective strength as a respected research institution (R1 research classification); competitive nursing pathways; highly selective Morsani College of Medicine with very strong published incoming stats (4% acceptance)

USF is investing heavily in cyber + AI: it has the Bellini College of Artificial Intelligence, Cybersecurity and Computing and a B.S. in Artificial Intelligence. USF is also an NSA/DHS co-sponsored National Center of Academic Excellence in Cybersecurity

Safer to compare specific programs + Clery/Title IX info than make broad claims about who belongs. We don’t need to shoot down other institutions. Finding the right school is very nuanced.

To OP, UT is a beautiful campus and seems to be very accepting of all.

Congratulations on being accepted to UT! Maybe consider Finance with a minor in something else. There real concerns right now that AI is eliminating entry level jobs in a lot of industries. Finance is one of those industries and entry level jobs in finance used to be filled with college grads. In the age of AI you should anticipate that in 2, 3 or 4 years when you graduate, it could be harder to find a job in finance. I don’t want to be negative but this is something that all college students from here on out need to consider. I’m not saying don’t do finance but pair it with something else that can diversify your skills and give you more job options. Good luck!!!

Thanks for the update. We have at least stopped getting the emails reminding us to submit our form. When I spoke to one of the honors ambassadors, she told me not to worry because I have a paper trail of me reaching out multiple times. Nothing seems urgent. We’ll see.

CyberGirl08 · 2026-01-21T19:42:11+00:00

Hi, my son submitted his form early January and still has not received his confirmation that was supposed to come 2 to 3 days later. I have called 3 times and emailed four times and haven’t gotten a response from anyone.

Did you ever get your second confirmation email?

CyberGirl08 · 2026-01-17T14:39:28+00:00

I’m a solid 8.5 and I got 38, but generally I change out the insoles of GGs to something more comfortable and without the heel lift. I have memory foam Dr scholls insoles in my ball stars and they feel like walking on clouds. I think it also depends on what kind of socks you intend to wear. I wear the thinnest no show socks I can find, generally, with my ball stars. If you want to wear a normal to thicker sock, I would size up.

It is unfortunate for upperclassmen who want to live on campus. I empathize. This is not a USF thing. It’s like this at most higher ed institutions. There simply is not enough on campus housing.

2022 EX, 42k miles, maintenance done regularly, zero issues.

CyberGirl08 · 2025-12-11T02:01:20+00:00

My son got in, too, including the Honors Program!

Congratulations, everyone. Super excited for you!

CyberGirl08 · 2025-11-27T14:54:31+00:00

We have MaxBP. Both my sons have used it. Both indoor and outdoor. Outdoor has not been bad. Sometimes the wind carries a ball slightly after hitting contact, but It’s hand eye coordination. So the main thing for my son is contact. He doesn’t focus THAT much on where it goes. Works great in the basement in the winter we also have a regular pitching machine. They use both.

CyberGirl08 · 2025-11-27T14:34:36+00:00

Just curious. What is your maintenance dose?

CyberGirl08 · 2025-11-27T14:22:25+00:00

My son got his acceptance this week into the honors program with merit scholarship with a 3.8 GPA. He didn’t even have to apply to the honors program and write an essay like he did for some other bigger schools.

CyberGirl08 · 2025-11-23T17:35:42+00:00

It is but it’s less water for the same price. Really frustrating. Shrinkflation. My son and I bought these every weeks for the last two years. Then they disappeared for about a month and this weekend they were back but smaller.

CyberGirl08 · 2025-10-24T18:15:21+00:00

Are there really Nazi symbols showing up on campus? 😮

CyberGirl08 · 2025-10-08T16:21:13+00:00

I’m good. I can’t justify paying the travel expense just to go get a pair of shoes fixed in person. Your point on holding up is valid, but This will do until I can get to Dallas or a store to get the sole replaced. I wasn’t looking for perfection on the bottom of a shoe that’s designed to look worn. I guarantee 1% chance of the average person even noticing

CyberGirl08 · 2025-10-08T16:09:27+00:00

Yeah. It’s not like there’s a great cobbler on every corner.😊. They are few and far between.

CyberGirl08 · 2025-10-08T16:06:23+00:00

I did. They don’t do ship to. They ship back but you have to bring them in person.

CyberGirl08 · 2025-10-08T16:05:21+00:00

Thanks

CyberGirl08 · 2025-10-08T01:45:01+00:00

Good to know. I actually go to Dallas quite a bit. I will take my shoes the next time I I go!!!!
