USF's weeklong re-evaluation period, also known as its bye week, has commenced in the wake of its 35-17 loss Saturday at Maryland, Coach Willie Taggart reiterated Monday.
When it concludes, the Bulls may have a new starter or two.
During Monday's weekly American Athletic Conference coaches teleconference, Taggart said the Bulls will focus on fundamentals, execution, "and making sure we have the right guys doing those things."
"I feel like our fundamentals went out the window in that game, and it cost us big-time," said Taggart, whose team (1-2) victimized itself with dropped passes and botched coverages against a defense that had surrendered 692 yards to Bowling Green only seven days before.
