USF announced Sunday afternoon that HC Charlie Strong has been relieved of his duties.
Strong has been fired after three seasons at USF, but the news does not come as a surprise. His tenure got off to a strong start, as the Bulls went 10-2 and finished the 2017 season ranked 21st in the final AP Top 25 poll. But it was all downhill from there, with the Bulls ending the 2018 season on a six-game losing streak to finish with a 7-6 record. USF, which was hit hard by injuries on the offensive side of the football, finished the 2019 season with a 4-8 record.
