Bulls add another RB

South Sumter senior RB Richard Kelly verbally committed to USF Sunday. Kelly (6-0, 240) still plans to visit Florida State and Ole Miss, but said he’s “90 percent†set on USF.

“Most likely, I’ll go to the Bulls,†Kelly said. “It’s close to home and they play in Raymond James Stadium. The coaches said depending on how hard I work, that I would get a chance to start at running back.â€Â

Kelly rushed for 1,100 yards as a senior, including 174 yards and four TDs in South Sumter’s Class 2A region semifinal against Keystone Heights on Nov. 10.

“He’s a great fit for USF,†South Sumter coach Inman Sherman said.

Kelly said he will visit FSU Jan. 18 and will reschedule his visit to Ole Miss. Kelly is USF’s second running back commitment in the past few days joining Boca Ciega RB Josh Bellamy. Bellamy was going to visit Western Michigan last weekend, but he said his flight was cancelled by a snow storm up north. “I guess that’s a sign,†Bellamy said.

I hope he pans out we could use some beef in the backfield.

The kid must be crazy to want to come to USF after all we don't have an OCS with our logo on the field. ;)

This kid really sounds like a Haus.  I dunno how well a big back will work in our system, does he play any other position exceptionally well?  Hoepfully he has the ability to go with the size because a kid that big should be able to shoulder the load in the running game.

    We've talked about getting back to being the toughest, most violent people out there. Let's be the best version of ourselves and really get back to the culture of how we (USF) used to step across the line and play anybody. Let's hold on to the culture of when they were tough … and they (opponents) knew it was going to be long damn day for themselves.
