No way I can root for the Patriots…or any Boston team, but hope Wilcox makes the roster.

Three-time Grey Cup winner played 13 seasons with Montreal and Toronto in the Canadian Football League



TAMPA, MAY 7, 2024 – Former University of South Florida football standout SJ Green (Brandon, Fla.) has been selected for induction into the Canadian Football Hall of Fame (CFL). Enshrinement will take place on September 14.



A Bulls wide receiver from 2003-06, Green went on to play 13 seasons (2007-2019) in the CFL for the Montreal Alouettes (2007-09 & 2010-16) and Toronto Argonauts (2017-19). He recorded 716 receptions and 10,222 receiving yards while notching 30 career 100-yard receiving games and 60 touchdown receptions. Green is one of 18 players to surpass 10,000 yards receiving in CFL history and ranks 12th all-time in receptions.



Green was part of three Grey Cup winning teams, claiming the trophy with Montreal in 2009 and 2010 and with Toronto in 2017. He was twice elected a CFL All-Star (2013 & 2017) and was chosen as a CFL East Division All-Star eight times from 2011 to 2015 in Montreal and from 2017-19 in Toronto.



A starter as a true-freshman at USF in 2004, Green was a top target for the Bulls for four seasons as the program transitioned from Conference USA to the Big EAST, earned the program’s first two bowl bids, and first bowl victory in the 2006 PapaJohns.com Bowl. He finished his career with 62 receptions for 864 yards and five touchdowns.

Didn’t see a thread I could put this in and thought it was pertinent news seeing as he was an option to be our coach

posted a commitment to USF. I would assume this takes a scholarship. CAAR has yet to say anything about the other HS guard commit which will remain a mystery until USF confirms it. Now Wright is a guy I like and deserves a scholarship. We will have to wait and see if this gets confirmed, but for now welcome to the Bay!

Kameren Wright G/F

Brandon Stroud F

De'Ante Green PF

Corey Walker Jr PF

Daniel Tobiloba C

Jamille Reynolds C

Assuming the kid MaTaj Glover is a PWO, that leaves USF with 2 scholarships left. CAAR personally messaged me to remind that his guy Kasen Jennings is one I should be paying attention too. Apparently he has evolved into a player that will be a force on Youngblood’s level. I told him that I was high on the kid but obviously not high enough for CAAR liking. Basically Jennings evolution as a guard has affected how CAAR and staff are recruiting. With the addition of a guy I really became high on, Jimmie Williams, USF is set at guard. I can see them adding another guard or just going best player available to them with at least 1 scholarship. Bring in a versatile Forward with the other. Also those guys can be found in HS talent as well. Personally I would like to see more freshmen than just CJ on scholarship.

USF is in his top 5

Nice 2024 high school guard. Thought we needed more front court help. Probably over looked at his size. Should we be anticipating something based on another guard commit?

Glover Committed

CAAR better close on JoJo Philon. 26 high school kid from tampa is have good AAU run.

Also, what’s up with 25 Josh Lewis?

Let’s lock down Tampa

Bulls kicking some ass

I spoke with Matos today and I asked him if football is this the new path for him going forward or will he join the basketball team when the football season is over.

Matos said, "Right now, I don't know. I feel like I can still be a two sport athlete. I'm healthy. I workout to be healthy."

Then he wanted to talk about something else.

He also told me that he now weighs 300 pounds.
