There are ZERO players from the 25-8 roster that is currently on the USF squad, so the fact that they had a successful season 2 seasons ago doesn't mean anything.  It's not like they kept everyone from that season and Hodgson is just picking up where they left off.

I said in another post in the last 6 years before Hodgson got their both Ark St and USF had 1 winning season... The 6 years before GMac got their Siena had 1 losing season...

So if you are looking at recent histories of the programs, then GMac was a place that had more recent success overall, but like I said, rosters almost change every season, so bringing up what teams' records were previously had no real impact unless you can show they kept a bunch of the core players, which didn't happen.

He was known for being an elite recruiter when he was the lead assistant coach for Alabama, and Oats he has a great reputation on the recruiting trail and is widely considered an outstanding recruiter.   It could have zero recruits for 2026 for any number of reasons.  Maybe he wont be their next year and isn't recruiting.  Maybe he doesn't want to bring freshmen into a program like that and just looking at portal players because they will not get an impact as a freshman at USF with the money being thrown around.

Having a top 10 scoring offense in the entirety of college basketball isn't exceptional?
