Corey Walker Jr. scored a career-high 25 points but Cincinnati was too much for South Florida.

INSTANT ANALYSIS

Keyshawn Bryant took part in the full practice today.

Russel Tchewa's left back hand has a protection pad held in place by a wrap.

His on-court work was limited to non-contact stuff like free throws, stretching, box out drills, footwork drills etc. He did lots of off court conditioning like simulated fast breaks.

More info when I have some.

Leaving Notre Dame but not retiring. Would be a great get for USF.

But there are a ton of reports out there today and tonight about Matthew Middleton heading to Kansas State as WR coach.

I’ve confirmed he is the top candidate for the position, and that he’s headed to Purple Manhattan barring a late collapse in negotiations.

Congrats to Marquel. Hope to see him in Green and Gold again one day.

Blackwell to Texas A&M

Philly is currently a 1.5 point favorite with the over/under at 50.5

It's the #Rematch

Please keep all game chatter in this thread.

We have learned that Memphis guard Alex Lomax may not play tonight. Also, center Malcolm Dandridge might miss this game.

Brian Gregory, Selton Miguel and Tyler Harris met with the media following the Bulls loss to Memphis.

If anyone deserves it, it's Rhonde. He is the toughest 185 lb man in the world. Now the hope is John Lynch makes it on the next vote. Those two together was a load for teams to handle.

Rivals is performing maintenance on the content site at 2 a.m. ET. They expect it to take two hours. During parts of this time, home pages, articles, profiles, etc. will show a maintenance page.

Message boards should remain available through most of the maintenance, though users who are not already signed in when the maintenance starts may not be able to do so during the maintenance window.

Bulls can't overcome their turnovers in loss to Memphis.

A website that keeps track of coaching changes says that Brian Gregory is a dead man walking.

Interesting article if you have access. Even seems to insinuate that moving from RayJay to an OCS is seen as a negative for P5 schools looking to play in an NFL stadium.

South Florida returns to action for its second game in February Wednesday night when it hosts Memphis.

STORY

Still a few guys I need to add, but this is the majority of current targets. I've only included guys this staff have shown interest in and/or reoffered or offered post-coaching change.
