USF will represent USA in Pan Am games - Cubanbull - 07-07-2010 03:18 PM

We will get a preview of the USF basketball team this August as they will represent the USA in the Pan Am games. Heath will be able to take all his new recruits so it will help in building team chemistry

You could still have Stan Heath as the coach, but just open it up to everybody. I seem to recall that's what we used to do for the Pan Am Games, but I could be wrong. Also, what if USF has some kids that aren't American? Do they have to stay at home? For example, Syracuse's prized recruit this year is from Brazil. If he went to USF, he either wouldn't be allowed to play, or would have to play against his home country.

I believe that they switched recently to having a university team represent US. All of USF's kids are americans so there is no problem there
