Former standout linebacker Stephen Nicholas is relishing his role as USF’s new defensive analyst, while 2010 Big East Special Teams Player of the Year Lindsey Lamar has returned as a graduate assistant.
“It feels great to be back around your old stomping yards and to be back around the team, the atmosphere and the facilities,” Lamar said. “It feels like I’m back at home.”
Nicholas still ranks fourth on USF’s all-time list with 326 tackles after playing for the Bulls from 2002-06. Nicholas went on to spend seven NFL seasons with the Atlanta Falcons and he became a regular at USF practices this spring.
