Louisville gets an A+ and USF gets an A-?!  :o Maybe it is just me, but I don't see how Louisville got a better grade than USF.

charlie strong has made an immediate and visible impact with recruiting

They should have put South"ern" Florida ... and people would still think they were referring to the BULLS  8-)

Mandel explicitly called him a former USF assistant.

Not in the story linked above:

Marshall (Doc Holliday): The longtime West Virginia assistant and South Florida recruiting titan could turn the Thundering Herd back into a player for the first time since Byron Leftwich left.

demoted at south carolina....under his own dad too? does that concern anyone else besides me or is it just whateva

No.  Because it appears Lou had it in his contract that Skip would succeed him at South Carolina should he retire and Skip be the OC.  Demoting him to QB coach prevented that.  They did it after a 5-6 season and likely already had eyes on Spurrier.

I believe I either heard Skip or his wife say that he left the HC job at CONN and went to USC as an assistant to his dad because he wanted to be closer to his mom who had throat cancer at the time. Lou only had the one position available and so that's the reason for the professional demotion but, wow what does that say about Skip's love for his family? By the way, he's surrounded by family now! I'm actually really looking forward to Jennifer Holtz being involved with these young men as well. She seems like an amazing woman and Lord knows most 18-22 year old boys could use some women's advice from time to time.

Speaking of which, how is Mrs. Canales doing? Any recent updates?

It's there.

Look under the picture of Holliday and read the caption:

Former West Virginia and USF assistant Doc Holliday will use his Florida recruiting ties to upgrade the talent at Marshall.

Ah .... but I don't think Mandel wrote the caption because he got it right in the story.
