I'm a little disappointed in Skip, by passing on Marquel Blackwell for there reciever coaching position. I would think he would hire someone with local ties on the recruiting circuit, and a former USF bull,. Just my opinion?

Blackwell would probably be better suited to be the QB coach one day. I hope he gets a shot at that.

Marquel must have seen the writing on the wall and is moving on to other things, accoding to GA. Too bad that we couldn't keep him.

Marquel Blackwell and Steve Bird, who have worked as program assistants for USF football, are no longer part of Skip Holtz's coaching staff and have left to pursue other opportunities in coaching. Blackwell has been a program assistant for the last three years, while Bird moved into that role in 2010 after working as a graduate assistant in 2009. Holtz has not filled either position yet.

Blackwell, 32, who played quarterback at USF from 1999-2002, remains the program's all-time leading passer, still holding the Bulls' career records with 9,108 yards and 67 touchdown passes, among others. He was the head coach at Freedom High in 2007-08. Bird has been a college football coach since 1987, including stops as an assistant coach at Pittsburgh and West Virginia.

    "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."
