I'm sure this article has been posted before, but here's some quotes I found very interesting:

"Watching the SEC championship against Florida, I said, 'God, I wish we could get this guy.' Next thing I know, he's available. I got goose bumps," said Richard Gonzmart, president of the Columbia Restaurant and a prominent USF supporter. "I was in a meeting the other day and a booster called with USF news. I felt like it was the Vatican: The smoke's going up. We must have a new pope."

"We're in this league, and we need to commit to being in this league to be able to have success in this league," athletic director Doug Woolard said.

"I think it's a great hire," ESPN analyst **** Vitale said. "I had talked to him during the process and told him to jump right on that. He's the perfect hire for them. I think he got a raw deal at Arkansas, and I think they got themselves a little coup, this late, to get someone of his quality."

"We've got to make this, when winter comes, the thing to do," Heath said. "It's a goal of mine to put a great product out there, to put out a team that's exciting, a team that's going to play hard, a team that's going to play pressure basketball. What does that mean? It means we're going to run. It means we're going to get in your face and guard you. It means we're going to attack you all the time. That's how we want to play."

"We're in this league, and we need to commit to being in this league to be able to have success in this league," athletic director Doug Woolard said.

I am so happy to hear him say that.

Here's one from the Trib:

Heath also wants to make USF a bigger presence in downtown Tampa.

"I definitely have an interest in playing [at the Forum] in downtown Tampa during holiday season when the students are away," Heath said. "I definitely want to do it. It's a good selling point."

Smart man...
