QUICK TAKE: USF FOOTBALL




USF has fallen on hard times lately and is in search of its former winning self. With excellent recruiting grounds just a stones throw away USF's recent struggles are somewhat of a mystery. Now that the Bulls have lost their place at the buffet table( USF now part of the Gang of Five Schools) their turnaround is going to be that much more difficult. UCF, their in state rival, has the upper hand at the moment in terms of momentum and brand appeal

Former Head Coach Skip Holtz was at the helm for the start of the USF collapse while current Head Coach Willie Taggart seems just as lost as Holtz was.  If Taggart does not give the Bulls fans a Bowl game this year look for him to be let go at the end of this season.

While the Bulls have recruited well in the last few years, it remains to be seen if they can put all of the pieces together this year for a nice run in the AAC.  USF has all the tools necessary to consistently be a top  G5 school. Until that happens look for them to stay in the bottom half of the AAC this year.

Look for a complete AAC breakdown in the weeks to come. Stay tuned
