Calloway posted something on Twitter a week or so ago that seemed to imply he was gonna be back with the team this fall. About the same time he was retweeting a bunch of people who were encouraging him to stick with his academics and get back. That gave me the impression he's on track to be back.

I also checked on Kendall Sawyer (https://twitter.com/D1_Warrior2). Thought he had transferred to Arizona Western with Stefon McCray. Well, I see Stefon on the roster, but not Kendall. Wonder what happened there: http://www.awcmatadors.com/football/football-roster. For what it's worth, his twitter handle reads "University of South Florida". 

He was on their roster at some point per this tweet:

After Scottsdale 3 and out, good punt return by Kendall Sawyer sets Matadors up with great field position - Scottsdale's 30

Swanson on the wheel route was our best play in 2014. He'd add another dimension to the 2rb+qf look. Agree on Calloway.

D'Earnest Johnson was awfully good with the wheel route last year so...

This. QF, Mack and DJ need to be on the field every play IMO.

So why not have a 4th capable rb to sub in and out?

Swanson would give us what WAS missing.  A bruising FB on short yardage plays.  Navy is amazing of showing the options with a big FB and slashing QB/RBs.  The few times we had 2-3 RBs in the back field, we seemed to enjoy a lot of success.

A team can never have enough strong DTs. Hopefully Calloway will make his way back to the playing field in 2016

Based on the 2015 roster the team is in desperate need of aTEs and FBs.  The addition of Bowman Archibald at the TE position and possible addition of Swanson at FB would be  valuable to the team.

I thought the last I read was that Archibald is NOT coming to USF.  Anyone have anything more current?

Maybe he's coming...but this is the latest I could dig up.  But I have some vague recollection that he couldn't transfer.

Didn't say I wouldn't want Swanson on the team, just saying that DJ > Swanson.

Thats what we are saying man. Everybody would love to have Swanson back, as he is a phenominal athlete, but he isnt a necessity. More of a luxury. Calloway is more of a necessity if we are going to push for 10 wins this year. We really need to be more dominante up front, although Calloway is a better pass rushing DT than a run stuffer imo
