  1. I feel bad for Lex and certainly for the coaches and all the fans that were excited for USF basketball for the 1st time in years. I mean today's news pretty much puts USF from the upper tier of AAC schools to the bottom tier before the season ever started. Cannot see this team going .500 in this tough league. The problem now is that who will clean up all those bad shots that Rideau and Collins take? Also Dawson has been dealing with an injury as I recall too.
  2. Men. Highest rated player the men basketball team has ever got in the Rivals.com era. We are about to be on a higher level of sustainable success under Coach Gregory, which is something many doubt was possible for any men basketball head coach to do Coach Gregory has only 2 scholarships to use for the 2020 class so far and he just filled one with his #1 overall target. Up next is either a PF or Center imo
  3. To USF after his weekend visit. Unbelievably great pickup for Coach Gregory and men basketball program. Highest rated player to ever commit to USF and it a great start to the 2020 class.
  4. USF coaches have been all over this young guy before he started to blow up this spring and coming summer. He's a player to watch for sure. His HS team is ST Andrews in Boca, FL. His travel team is TEAM CP25. He has offers from WVU, OU, and USF . - Justin Byerly https://hoopseen.com/news/event/201904/top-three-overall-performers-2019-hoopseen-atlanta-jam
  5. Just happy for these coaches, players, trainers, school advisory, athletic department, and all the fans. Man what a season. It had surprising starts, disappointing stretches, and a great great finish ending with the College Basketball Invitational Tournament Championship. Just to think this team was at it's lowest state 2 years ago and today are are one of the best teams in USF Men Basketball history. Scary the true potential this team has going foward.
  6. Seems to happen every game and you just don't know when it will appear. We can look so good in spots during just about every game, but we will also look bad, very bad in the same games as well.
  7. Can't let up now. Turnovers and the 3 ball and leads evaporate fast. Let's crushed LMU's throats!!
  8. Hopefully the Bulls have a powerful 2nd half like they have so many times this season. It usually happens when they are down, so maybe they can just pretend that is the case
  9. Collins got poked in the eye pretty bad earlier and had to be taken to the locker room.
  10. Joey Knight‏ @TBTimes_Bulls 2m2 minutes ago LMU up 11-10 with 10:45 to play in 1st. @USFMBB 0-for-5 from long range, 5-for-14 from floor. Getting out-rebounded, 11-5.
  11. There is another kid on that team, 2021 Seffner Christian G Willie Jones has gotten an offer from USF too.
  12. Boys Basketball Player of the Year: Meadowcreek's Jamir Chaplin Jamir Chaplin didn’t come into the 2018-19 high school basketball season looking to reinvent himself as a player. Given that he was a first-team All-State selection from Meadowcreek’s Class AAAAAAA state championship team from last year, that was hardly necessary. The 6-foot-4 senior wing didn’t even need to change his role that much this year, given that he was already something of a team leader. But with three starters from last year’s title team lost to graduation and a handful of newcomers — albeit a pair high-profile ones — Chaplin did think an adjustment to what he did and how he would do it for the Mustangs for this season was in order. “It was a lot of pressure trying to win the state title again,” the 2019 Gwinnett Daily Post Boys Player of the Year said. “We had some newcomers in (Dominick) Dunn and (Jalen) Benjamin. They came in hoping to get to that level and actually get past it. “So it was not that much pressure on me, (but) pressure on the team. You could tell we were ready, but we just couldn’t finish it off.” Chaplin and the Mustangs didn’t quite finish off a repeat of last year’s title, falling to nationally ranked and undefeated McEachern 62-54 in this year’s finals, but they definitely showed they were able to make the necessary adjustments to make another deep tournament run despite having a much different makeup. After fitting in like a glove with Meadowcreek’s twin towers Amari Kelly and Cory Hightower during last year’s title run, Chaplin found himself as being among the Mustangs’ tallest players this year. While he didn’t totally abandon his strengths of playing out on the wing and driving to the rim, he did have to move down to the low block on occasion this season, particularly on the defensive end of the court. It’s a role he wasn’t totally unfamiliar with, and certainly wasn’t uncomfortable in fulfilling.
