 Draft Scout College Football Player News: South Florida
Previous 15 Notes |Back to Page One| Next 15 Notes


  South Florida coach Jeff Scott was fired Sunday, one day after his team gave up 621 yards of offense in a 54-28 loss to Temple that dropped him to 4-26 at the school. Special teams coordinator Daniel Da Prato will be the interim coach for the remainder of the season. "When Jeff came to Tampa in December of 2019, we had high expectations for where he could take our football program," USF athletic director Michael Kelly said in a statement. "While he did so many things right, including rebuilding our culture, pushing forward our indoor performance facility, and engaging our community, the on-the-field results fell well below our standards." South Florida is 1-8 this season, 0-5 in the American Athletic Conference. "I would like to thank our players, coaches and staff members for all their hard work during my time as the head coach at USF," Scott said. "I will miss this team and will do anything in my power to help them in the future. I am disappointed that our hard work didn't translate to more success on the field, but I am confident that we have set a new foundation." Scott joined USF after serving five years as the co-offensive coordinator at Clemson, which went 70-5 over the stretch. Defensive coordinator Bob Shoop was also fired. Co-defensive coordinator Ernie Sims will take over for Shoop. - AP College Football

  Baylor sophomore receiver Seth Jones announced Wednesday that he will enter the NCAA transfer portal.

The third-year sophomore has played in all six games this season, making seven catches for 73 yards and no touchdowns. Since he exceeded three games, this season will count against his eligibility.

  USF fifth-year senior safety Vincent "Smoke" Davis, the Bulls' second-leading tackler last season and one of their captains, announced Tuesday he must give up football for the time being due to a neck injury. "At this moment, it is not safe for me to continue playing football and potentially risk compromising my long-term health," Davis wrote in a lengthy social-media message. "This news has been extremely difficult to reconcile with as I expected to take the field with my brothers and have a year like no other.

In 2021, he recorded 68 tackles (including a career-high 13 against Tulsa and eight against Florida) with 1-1/2 tackles for loss, two quarterback hurries and a pass breakup. - Tampa Tribune
