The best hire ever at USF was Lee Rose.  For those of you that don't know that name and claim to be a USF fan, shame on you.

Was thinking the same thing so I went and checked on CLR's resume ..... 2 Final Fours .... winner hands down. Knew he was a name before he came here but not that big.

What do you mean by "didn't do much at USF"?  I guess a case of you don't know what you don't know.  

Rose built a pretty good basketball team from nothing, but far beyond that he gave USF sports...ALL USF sports legitimacy in the big time college sports world.  Without Lee Rose you would not have the Sun Dome.  

If you don't know about Lee Rose or the history of USF sports, it is highly recommended to read Tony Grier's book "A Raging Bull".  Sure hope people know who Tony is.

  • Quotes

    "There is no inherent fear among this group of players. The fear of failing drove the program from day one - the fear of failing the coaches, the fan base, the university, each teammate, themselves. Now, as we head into the biggest game in our history at home on a national stage against the highest ranked team to step on OUR field, the players are taking an introspective look at themselves. Unfortunately, I don't know if they get it. They lack the fear."

    "I wish you guys could be in the locker room and be on the practice field because it is so much different from what it has been in the past."
