Added Defensive Line Depth Gives Coordinator Shoop Options

Last season, during a particularly ravaging injury-plagued stretch, USF coach Jeff Scott made this proclamation:

"I've learned you can never have enough defensive linemen.''

The Bulls now appear to be well-stocked across the defensive front following a recruiting cycle that saw the addition of 12 players at defensive tackle or defensive end. Now it's a matter of who plays where — and USF defensive coordinator Bob Shoop is still sorting out the rotation heading into the team's second full scrimmage on Saturday morning.

Jatorian Hansford (a transfer from Missouri) and holdover Tramel Logan have had standout camps at defensive end, while Shoop has been impressed with Rashad Cheney (Minnesota transfer) and holdover Rashawn Yates on the interior.
