The national recognition for the University of South Florida continues to come in after the Bulls’ upset at No. 7 West Virginia. Sunday, USF freshman DE George Selvie was named the Walter Camp Foundation’s National Defensive Player of the Week for his play in Saturday’s upset against West Virginia. Selvie had a team-high eight tackles (7 solo), including 3.5 tackles for losses, and recovered a fumble, returning it for a 9-yard touchdown in the Bulls’ win. Selvie helped the Bulls’ defense limit the high-scoring Mountaineers to 19 points (22 below their average) and 310 yards of total offense. BYU QB John Beck was the Walter Camp National Offensive Player of the Week.

Is Selvie the Player of the Year? or Week?

Jim, Selvie could be Player of the Year, but it should have been Player of the Week. I’ll try to get more sleep next time before posting on the blog. Thanks.

And George was named Defensive Player of the Week by the Big East also.
This young man has had an incredible year and realatively outta nowhere.
When USF was raising money for the new facility, I “donated” for a Locker. I am proud to say that George is using this locker.
And 3 More Years !
Go BULLS !!!
