A team that finished ahead of USF in Con USA just about every year. A team that has a very similar geographical makeup urban city and is the 3rd leg of the state university systems. (ie. Auburn, bama -- USF, FLorida and Florida State) And a team that has one of the BEST unkonwn coaches in the country.Read up my friend Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Paisa el Toro Posted February 14, 2006 Group: Member Topic Count: 132 Content Count: 10,380 Reputation: 1,058 Days Won: 18 Joined: 08/11/2003 Share Posted February 14, 2006 Even with all of Huggins' shortcomings, i.e. his criminal record, the criminal records of his recruits, his non-emphasis on academics, etc., you can't deny that a hire of his caliber would put USF on the college basketball map. Although I like what Coach Mac brings to the table, the more I think about Huggins to USF, the more I'm starting to like it. USF really needs to make any statement at this point, besides just being the team that plays hard against the Big East. Bringing Huggs in would give us some credibility in the conference and would aid us in recruiting some top notch talent, which happens to be a little questionable on the character side of things. I'd be willing to take a gamble on Huggs. What do we have to lose? We have a vested interest in USF, so we'll care more about graduation rates than anyone. But in all honesty, the average sport's fan doesn't care about a school's graduation rate or the character of the recruits coming in. The only thing that matters to Joe Schmo sports fan is whether a team is winning or losing. We need to inject USF with something new, and I think a Huggins hire may do the trick. IF he can turn things around, it would do wonders to get the average sports fan to support our school. Just my opinion, which is based on pure conjecture and not fact. So I'm not trying to start any debates. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
