NEW IMPACT PLAYERS HAVE MADE NOTABLE PROGRESS FOR BULLS

After sitting out last season, three much-improved Bulls are putting themselves in a position to make a major impact for USF men's basketball in 2018-19.

Guards Laquincy Rideau, T.J. Lang and forward Alexis Yetna have all have made huge progress in preparation for their first season of game action in determined second-year USF head coach Brian Gregory's program.

Getting Rideau, Lang and Yetna into the mix for game action is an enormous plus for USF, which has been in the business of steady improvement since Gregory's arrival. In 2017-18, Gregory guided the Bulls to the program's first double-digit win season since 2013-14 and tripled the team's conference win total from 2016-17. 

 

Some good news on the MBB front.

That's always welcome.  Been waiting a long time.

Hope optimism comes through as wins.

Yetna having to sit out last year may turn into a blessing in disguise. I doubt that he would have been able to add 30 pounds of mass if he were playing with the team last season. Being able to focus on the weight room (and the classroom) will likely pay great dividends for him this season and beyond. I really think we could be looking at a team that finishes a few games above .500 this season.

With the schedule we have 500 is a distinct possibility.
