Something needs to be done about this Harlem guy. I don't even know him, but if this is his fault, he needs to go.

Harlem didn't want to keep Taggart around, he wanted to hire some guy with lies on his resume, and now this?  Who says he is such a smart guy?  Judy is just as responsible for all of USF athletic problems.  Once TAGS leaves don't know what will become of this athletic program.....probably won't be good

Good for COA sticking by his leadership values.  His best player broke team rules and he took care of business.  His brother broke the rules and he, along with USF leadership took decisive action.

Just for clarity, Perry did not leave the team.  The team left Perry and should have for his earlier issue.  Perry seems to have revisionist history and quick twitter fingers.  Perhaps he should change his twitter handle from Skippy Walnuts to Numb Nuts.

This team has not been good and in all likelihood will not be this year.  It may cost COA his job, but I've got to give him credit for doing things the correct way off the court and holding people accountable.

Go Bulls!

It still doesn't resolve the fact that Antigua's best H.S. recruits have only been McMurray and Guerrero, and those two were incredible finds. The rest of the "higher caliber" HS recruits have been dealing with injuries (Santos), had academic issues (Da Silva), or haven't made it on campus (Feliz, Baxter, or Montero). Good for him for being a disciplinarian, but a coach that's supposed to be a good recruiter has "wiffed" on quite a few HS recruits. Antigua's recruiting reminds me a lot of the way Prado was in baseball.

If USF would provide students with a gun range, they'd learn proper gun safety and marksmanship.

Dual purpose IPF.... problem solved.

This seems more than a positive 'test'.....I speculate fight with a teammate or something like that. 

Nope.  At USF there are specific percentages of the season set out for the first positive test, the second, and then dismissal IIRC.  Six games in basketball sounds exactly like the penalty for first positive test.  Things like a fight with a teammate have varying lengths that are up to the coaching staff.  Positive tests were taken out of the coaches hands some years ago.

Purely speculation that this is the reason for this suspension, of course.

Me thinks you may be correct.

Ha!  Unlikely COA had any choice in the matter.

2017-18 season should have a clean turn around.

 

No excuses
