USF announced on Saturday the addition of Larry Dixon to Brian Gregory’s men’s basketball staff as an assistant coach.
The former Georgia Southern assistant fills the void left by former Bulls assistant Chad Dollar, who departed from USF to join Tom Crean’s staff at Georgia in April.
Dixon spent the past five seasons at Georgia Southern under head coach Mark Byington, helping the Eagles in their jump from the SoCon to the Sun Belt.
During that period of time, the Eagles finished over .500 three times. That included an 18-15 mark during the 2016-17 season that earned them a trip to the CBI, the program’s first postseason appearance since 2006.
