It's official. This morning the Bulls fired the only head coach in the school's football history. Jim Leavitte was let go by USF today.
Who's your guess for replacement?

He's been in the news for a few weeks after being accused of choking and slapping a player during halftime of USF's Homecoming game against Louisville. Take into consideration the constant chatter in the area about if Leavitte is "the right guy to take the team to the next level," USF's AD felt that it was the perfect opportunity to go ahead and pull the trigger.

Yeah, I knew about the halftime incident. I wonder how much influence the recent accusations against Leach and Mangini had on this decision.
Oh well, they are doing what they feel is best for the University.
In the mean time, I am still grateful to Leavitt for all he did to establish the football program at my alma mater.
The names that I have seen mentioned so far are:
Dan McCarney, Florida defensive line coach
Tommy Tuberville, former Auburn coach
Calvin Magee, Michigan offensive coordinator
Terry Bowden, head coach, North Alabama
Rich Bissacia, special teams coach, Tampa Bay Buccaneers
Tommy Bowden, former Clemson coach
Larry Fedora, Southern Mississippi coach
Mike Canales, USF offensive coordinator
Carl Franks, USF running backs coach (Int. HC)
Whether any of these are true or not is yet to be seen. It should be interesting to see which direction they go.

Any of those mentioned above whose names start with the letter "T" should work fine for the program.

I would love for them to land Tuberville. A proven coach that can recruit. Would make life interesting around Florida.
I would have hard time being excited if they went for Leach. Especially if they are saying the reason for releasing Leavitt has to do with conduct towards a player. Would not make any sense.

I don't get it, no old school coach ever thought of pulling crap like this. Yeah, they could make a player's life miserable, but it was never through violence or abuse.

Well, I for one don't believe that Leavitt choked and/or slapped a player. I think that they're just empty allogations from bitter ass players.

If anyone from Sports Outlaw is going to coach, its going to be me. Mr. Charisma!
I'll lay money that my Florida "hostesses" can beat Tennesee's "hostesses".
I wont smack players. I will host "kill the student" days where for the low price of a hold harmless agreement, you can walk out of your classes and into a rousing game of "rat in the hole" with my linebackers.
I will get Cubans to defect to come play for USF
Yep...gonna rock!
