From a PR standpoint, having bad press does affect integrity, which with USF is usually pretty high, but we will get pretty good bump in press mentions at a pretty critical time for USF to stand out from the crowd.  Yes it's bad but there is a silver lining, and USF can still create a strong narrative going forward if it chooses to.  All presidents can relate to a bad apple going rogue and bending/breaking rules.

And we don't know the extent of the allegations.  We know they involve Oliver Antigua by his resignation today.  I dont think it was as bad as I first thought.

It looks like USF may have known about them for about a month, since he wasn't allowed to go out recruiting anymore.

That's my feeling.  I remember when they said he couldn't see recruits.  I just blew it off.  But it was bigger than I thought.  I'm betting it's not as bad as some think.  Or even I initially thought.

So, I wonder which current players, if any, will get tossed due to this Academic fraud!

What a dumpster fire Orlando Antigua has created. He was a terrible hire from Day 1 which was to be expected with his Globetrotter experience and sketchy background!

Obviously he sucks at both. I know it was his brother, but still they both are awful.

Hey- we just need to give Antigua more time! Because Willie got three years and now USF football is a national championship contender! Plus, I mean I wanna let him see this thru signing the entire Dominican Junior national team! So what if they can't do teh schoolz!
