South Florida Failed to Monitor Football, Women's Basketball Programs

University Of South Florida Usf Vector Logo

The South Florida football and women's basketball programs exceeded the number of allowed countable coaches and the women's basketball program required student-athletes to exceed weekly limits for countable athletically related activity, according to an agreement released by the Division I Committee on Infractions. As a result of the violations, the former football coach and the women's basketball coach violated head coach responsibility rules, and South Florida failed to monitor its football and women's basketball programs.

The university and enforcement staff agreed that over the course of three academic years, seven then-noncoaching football staff members participated in on- and off-field instruction during practices, resulting in the program exceeding the number of permissible countable coaches. In one case, a then-noncoaching football staff member provided skills instruction to student-athletes and led film assessments and instruction.
