TAMPA, MAY --, 2018 – USF women's basketball head coach Jose Fernandez today announced the addition of Danny Hughes as an assistant coach on the Bulls' staff and the promotion of former graduate assistant Dominic DiRaimo to director of player development.

Funny that this was announced today.  I didn't even know, until yesterday, that Coach O was fired or left the program.  Hopefully the new guy works out.  Have met Dominic a few times and a good guy.  Best of luck to him in his new role.

That's what stood out to me, he is a former team manager and a USF grad.  Hopefully the green and gold remains in his heart and he has a long career at USF.

The funny thing is that Coach O was the one to send out the emails.  Guess he didn't send one out after leaving.
