It's homecoming week for the USF Bulls. Talk about appropriate timing. Marquel Blackwell, one of the best quarterbacks in USF history, is coming home.
Blackwell is running backs coach for the No. 20-ranked Houston Cougars (7-1, 5-0), who face USF (2-6, 1-3) in Saturday night's American Athletic Conference game at Raymond James Stadium.
"It's the first time in my life to be on that other sideline,'' Blackwell said with a laugh. "I might need directions. Even in the spring game, I don't think I was ever on that sideline.
"It's good to come back home. I'm sure I'll get to see some familiar faces.
