WUSF News is hiring paid interns for spring 2026.

USF police say they've identified and filed charges against three men shown in a video harassing Muslim students. Community leaders gathered Friday to condemn the behavior.

Videos posted to social media show three men shouting and using offensive language toward a group of Muslim students who were engaged in an early-morning prayer.

Coach Alex Golesh says the planned 150,000-square-foot facility, part of the $407 million on-campus stadium project, will be the “nicest football complex in the entire country.”

The final bids are still a month away, but the No. 24-ranked Bulls attained a major milestone in the program's history. But they'll have to win out to keep the 12th seed in the postseason bracket.

The College Football Playoff committee did not have a G5 team in its top 25, but said Memphis was first in line. Thanks to Memphis' loss Friday, that will almost certainly change when the committee's next rankings come out.

USF was up 14-3 before its offense stepped on the field. Then QB Byrum Brown accounted for 348 total yards and three touchdowns as the Bulls kept their chances alive for a CFP bid.

About 1,500 students and fans — many with handmade signs — showed up to cheer on the Bulls during ESPN's visit to the Tampa campus ahead of the nationally televised victory over UTSA.

State officials accuse higher education institutions of abusing the H-1B program. They also canceled or repurposed more than $40 million in grants for having some relation to DEI.

The Bulls dropped to 6-2 with the loss, in which they gave up a 14-point lead in the fourth quarter.
