USF confirmed on Tuesday that defensive back Craig Watts is still with the program and will not transfer.
#USF fans: here’s the top secret news @RyanSmithWrites asked me about last week.
Safety Craig Watts Jr. is no longer transferring from @USFFootball as he previously announced.— Nathan Bond (@BullsNathanSBN) February 6, 2018This comes nearly a month after Watts, via his Twitter account, announced his decision to transfer out on January 10.
Since then, he's been seen in videos using USF equipment as late as February 2 and even deleted the transfer tweet, prompting suspicions that he had a change of heart.
