Did Chuck Atkins ever end up getting his degree? There have some history, would be nice to get him on staff in some capacity. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Should make it easier to recruit the players from their roster if we get the coach and top assistant. I think his goal there and for us seems to be recruit locally. He has the Georgia connections and Fletcher has deep ties to Alabama. I'd be betting the next assistant is someone with connections in Florida. Also their star player Chris Youngblood's dad has now followed USF basketball on twitter. Would be a big add, dude can light it up from 3. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I remember when USF used to have beat writers that would help bring insight for us fans. So we are thankful for your research 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Youngblood appears to be the guy we really could use. The other stars from that team are all Seniors. Hope the top Asst follows and does not get the Head Coaching job there. Coach did say yesterday he would be chatting with the current staff before making any moves. Not sure if I would keep any, maybe Larry Dixon.

That alone could give us a big boost next year in the win column. I have been a bit down on the USF basketball hire, but that alone could make me a buliever and make me excited about next season.

Getting the 2 best players on a tourney team should help immediately 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
