In the comments after USF’s win, I was surprised to see many posters expressing their desire to see interim coach Murry Bartow - former UAB coach, and therefore USF nemesis, back in the day - be considered for the permanent position at USF. I too am warming to this idea, and here’s why:
- He’s getting great effort out of his players. The results have been ugly at times, but you have to respect that Bartow has the team playing hard. It would have been easy for everyone to mail in the rest of the season, but they continued to work hard, and were rewarded with a conference win.
