> Midseason Coach of the Year USF's Jim Leavitt edges UConn's Randy Edsall simply because of the rousing victory over Louisville, which shook the conference to its core and put the Bulls on the map.

>

> Nine years ago, Leavitt started the USF program from scratch, working out of an abandoned trailer that doubled as his first office. His team was terrible at the end of last season, but he has quickly restored it to respectability, as evidenced not only by the Louisville win but by South Florida's somewhat competitive showings against Penn State and Miami

we've gotten a lot of mileage out of that trailer office.  I guess when you look back it was probably better than starting off in a brand new state of the art facility.

The legend continues to grow, ten years from now he will have started the program in an abandoned card board box behind the argos cafeteria
