USF has two.  Solomon Jones and Chucky Atkins. 

The Big East is by far the best basketball conference in the nation, always has been.

with stan heaths recruiting reputation it will only be time before we have more nba players from USF.

    "There is no inherent fear among this group of players. The fear of failing drove the program from day one - the fear of failing the coaches, the fan base, the university, each teammate, themselves. Now, as we head into the biggest game in our history at home on a national stage against the highest ranked team to step on OUR field, the players are taking an introspective look at themselves. Unfortunately, I don't know if they get it. They lack the fear."
