USF Basketball

The Fowler Avenue Collective encouraged supporters to redirect donations to the Bulls Club, the university’s official athletic booster group, a shift that aligns with a broader move toward school-managed compensation.

Chris Mack stood out so strongly among dozens of interested candidates that USF "proactively" pursued him. Within days, he has shown the required "relentless obsession" as he recruits "everyday guys."

The Bulls need one more victory to earn an automatic bid in the NCAA tournament. A loss means waiting for a possible at-large bid from the selection committee.

Top-seeded South Florida enters the American Conference tournament on a nine-game winning streak, needing two wins in Birmingham to secure a spot in March Madness.

Interim head coach Michele Woods-Baxter says her 17 years of winning on Jose Fernandez's staff prepared her for the moment he decided to move on two weeks ago. USF opens the season Monday against FIU.

Bryan Hodgson overhauled the roster with 13 new players — including five who followed him from Arkansas State — into Monday's opener against Florida A&M at the Yuengling Center.

Matos played football and basketball at USF. The Dolphins said he “has movement in all extremities and is in stable condition,” but they did not provide any other details of the injury.

In a statement, Vice President for Athletics Michael Kelly said he is "eternally grateful" to interim coach Ben Fletcher.

The players claim FSU coach Leonard Hamilton promised them each $250,000 in name, image and likeness compensation. The plaintiffs include De'Ante Green, who transferred to USF before this season.

Ben Fletcher served as associate head coach at USF last year under Amir Abdur-Rahim, who died at age 43.

Celebrations of Amir Abdur-Rahim's life will be held Oct. 27 at Kennesaw State University in Georgia, where he previously coached, and Nov. 2 at USF.

While he was only with USF for one season, Abdur-Rahim made an immediate impact on campus, turning around a long-struggling program and spreading his upbeat, inspiring personality.
