For the better part of four years, USF coach Willie Taggart has been reminded that Bulls fans will return to Raymond James Stadium once the team starts winning.
Based on season-ticket sales, that hypothesis is proving true.
The school reported Tuesday 15,842 season tickets have been sold for the 2016 season, in which USF is expected to contend for the American Athletic Conference title. The total is an increase of 3,028 from last season, and represents a 33-percent increase in general-public season ticket sales from '15.
The numbers don't include student tickets distributed.
