USF Athletics

South Florida (27-7) entered looking for its first berth in the Sweet 16, but after a feisty start, couldn't hang with the Gamecocks.

The Bulls (27-6) rallied several times, including from 47-36 down in regulation to tie their mark for wins in a season.

If USF wins, they'll likely face undefeated, defending national champion South Carolina.

Gregory had an overall record of 79-107 in six seasons with the Bulls.

The USF Board of Trustees approved up to $22 million for the design phase of the project.

Alex Golesh led a Tennessee offense that ranked first in the nation in scoring and yards per game this season, with wins over LSU, Pittsburgh, and — most notably — Alabama.

Jeff Scott had a record of 4-26 in just under three seasons, including 1-19 in the American Athletic Conference.

The university has released both its master plans for its athletic facilities and a strategic plan for how it's going to accomplish those goals.

USF twice cut the deficit to nine in the second half, but they couldn’t get any closer.

USF received a ninth seed in the Greensboro region and will play the eighth seed University of Miami in Columbia, SC, Friday.

Officials also announced at Tuesday's Board of Trustees meeting that USF will hold town halls for the two presidential finalists the week of March 21.

According to the agenda for Tuesday's meeting, the proposed site is on the northeast side of campus, near Fletcher Avenue and North 50th Street.
