South Florida picked up a commitment on Halloween from West Orange HS (Fla.) defensive back Tony Newsome. Newsome had several other FBS offers but he picked the Bulls over several other programs.

"I decided to commit to USF because they treated me like family from the moment they saw me," Newsome said. "The whole coaching staff are really good genuine people that want what’s best for me and I love the area and the atmosphere, plus they have a really good connection with their players. All the coaches and players are very close."
