When USF's football players arrive at LaVell Edwards Stadium in Provo, Utah for Saturday night's game against the No. 15-ranked BYU Cougars, their uniforms and equipment will be neatly displayed and arranged in front of their stalls in the visiting locker room.
"It will all be there in the right places, like we snapped our fingers and it magically appeared,'' said Jeremy Lees, USF's assistant athletic director for equipment operations.
Hardly.
Getting USF football to BYU is a massive operation, requiring months of planning and precise execution to transport players, coaches, support staff, game-day uniforms, equipment and supplies across the country.
