UP AND COMING:@ South Florida's Jim Leavitt could have been coaching at Alabama or Kansas State, but he turned down those offers to stay with the program he helped build from scratch.

Leavitt's been the only coach the 11-year-old football program has had and it looks like his patience is paying off - along with the move from Conference USA to the Big East.

After leading the Bulls (8-4) to a bowl game for the first time last season, Leavitt's crew is again bowl-bound and coming off a 24-19 win at West Virginia, the biggest victory in school history.

The state of Florida has enough talented players for a fourth program to emerge as a consistent winner. With Leavitt now able to sell recruits a chance to play in the BCS, the Bulls should be a perennial contender in the Big East.
