Chris Howard brings veteran steadiness and defensive value to USF’s backcourt
Howard’s South Florida profile is built on reliability, not flash: in the 2009-10 season he started all 33 games, averaged 10.3 points, 3.9 rebounds and 3.9 assists, and posted a 2.21 assist-to-turnover ratio that ranked among the Big East’s best. He’s the kind of guard who improves a team’s structure with defense, ball security and toughness—good fit for a coach who wants a low-drama floor general who can defend, organize and make the right read.
