NOTES<br />
IN IT, BUT DIDN’T WIN IT<br />
In its first two games, USF has had two sizable first-half leads<br />
lost. The Bulls also had an eight-point lead against BU.<br />
• USF led Troy by 14 points, 44-30, with 3:11 remaining in the<br />
first half before being outscored 38-28 in the second half in an<br />
82-77 loss.<br />
• USF led NJIT by 15 points, 23-8, with 6:29 remaining in the<br />
first half. The Bulls led by 10 points, 50-40, with 6:05 left in the<br />
game and five points, 57-52, with 1:48 on the clock before losing<br />
60-57.<br />
• USF held an eight point lead, 18-10, with 11:36 remaining in<br />
the first half against Boston before losing 78-66.<br />
<strong>BULLS</strong> WELCOME TRANSFER ISAIAH MANDERSON<br />
• USF added Texas Tech transfer Isaiah Manderson to the team<br />
for the spring semester. The 6-10, 255-pound forward averaged<br />
4.4 points and 2.7 rebounds per game last season as a freshman.<br />
He appeared in four games as a sophomore this season and<br />
averaged 3.0 points and 1.6 rebounds.<br />
• Manderson is a native of Bronx, N.Y. and played his senior<br />
season of high school at Oldsmar Christian School in nearby<br />
Oldsmar, Fla. The same school that current USF guard Troy Holston<br />
Jr. played at. He was rated a three-star recruit out of high school<br />
and was rated the 18th best player in the state of Florida by ESPN.<br />
com.<br />
• Manderson is eligible to practice with the team immediately<br />
and will be eligible to play after the 2016 fall semester ends. He<br />
will be a junior next season.<br />
<strong>BULLS</strong> SIGN THREE<br />
Orlando Antigua and his staff announced the signing of three on<br />
Nov. 13, during the early signing period.<br />
• Troy Baxter is a 6-8, 190-pound forward from Tallahassee,<br />
Fla. He was rated four stars by Rivals, ESPN and 247Sports and is<br />
currently playing for Oldsmar Christian in nearby Oldsmar, Fla.<br />
Baxter was one of the first players that Antigua targeted after<br />
accepting the USF job in 2014.<br />
• Andres Feliz is a 6-2, 180-pound guard originally from<br />
the Dominican Republic, but currently plays for West Oaks<br />
Academy in Orlando, Fla. He was given a three-star rating by<br />
Rivals.com. Last season, Feliz helped West Oaks to a 32-4 record<br />
and a SIAA state championship. This past summer he was the<br />
starting point guard for the Dominican Republic at the U19 FIBA<br />
World Championships with USF assistant coach Oliver Antigua<br />
also on staff. He was the leading scorer on the team and in the<br />
tournament with 18.9 points averaged over seven games. Also<br />
last summer, Feliz was the youngest of the group that played<br />
wiith the Dominican Republic National Team at the Pan-American<br />
Games in Toronto.<br />
• Malik Fitts is a 6-5, 215-pound small forward from La Verne,<br />
Calif. who is in his final season at Brewster Academy Prep in New<br />
Hampshire. He is a Rivals.com three-star recruit and is ranked<br />
2016-17 ROSTER // A LOOK INTO THE FUTURE<br />
6 //<br />
// @USFMBB<br />
No. 55 among small forwards in the 2016 class. Prior to Brewster,<br />
attended Damien High School in La Verne and helped his team<br />
win the CIF D3 State Championship.<br />
• HoopSeen.com ranked the recruiting classes in the American<br />
Athletic Conference and placed the Bulls third behind No. 1 UConn<br />
and No. 2 Cincinnati. It also lists Andres Feliz as the best scorer in<br />
the class and Troy Baxter as the best athlete. Website writer Justin<br />
Young went on to say this: Troy Baxter is a highlight reel with<br />
unique size. Andres Feliz has league-leading scoring potential<br />
while Malik Fitts is a top 300 level talent.<br />
A HEALTHY CHRIS PERRY<br />
• Junior forward Chris Perry was forced to miss the last 12<br />
games of his sophomore season. After going through the<br />
proper medical tests, Perry told the media in July that it was<br />
a left-ventricle issue in his heart, which he was born with,<br />
that shortened his season. He was cleared to participate in<br />
team activities in May. The native of nearby Bartow, Fla., was a<br />
member of the Preseason American Athletic Conference Second<br />
Team last season after being named to the all-rookie team as a<br />
freshman. Perry led the Bulls with 7.1 rebounds per game and<br />
ranked second in points with 10.8. USF lost 11 of its last 13 games<br />
without him.<br />
• “He’s a monster, man. He’s a great player, he’s got touch; right<br />
or left jump-hooks. Just a big body, can rebound the basketball,<br />
his basketball IQ is off the roof. To have him back full-time, I think<br />
that’s gonna really, really help USF.” - UConn Head Coach Kevin<br />
Ollie at conference media day on Oct. 27.<br />
DOMINICAN TIES<br />
USF has two coaches and three players with ties to the Dominican<br />
Republic.<br />
• Head Coach Orlando Antigua was born in the Dominican<br />
Republic and coached the Dominican Republic National Team in<br />
2013 and 2014.<br />
• Orlando’s brother, Oliver Antigua, is an assistant coach at USF<br />
and was also born in the Dominican Republic. Oliver has also<br />
coached the Dominican Republic, most recently the U19 team<br />
this past summer. With the Antigua’s on staff, USF has embraced<br />
players with Dominican heritage.<br />
• Senior guard Nehemias Morillo was born and raised in<br />
Santiago, Dominican Republic before moving to New York in<br />
2010. Morillo competed for his country at the 2015 Pan-American<br />
Games this past summer.<br />
• Newcomer Angel Nunez is originally from the Dominican and<br />
played for the Dominican Republic Select Team last season.<br />
• Freshman Luis Santos grew up in Santiago, Dominican<br />
Republic before moving to the U.S. prior to his sophomore season.<br />
• This roster provides a glimpse of what USF’s roster will look like next season as of today.<br />
