Marlyn Bryant brings rugged defense and veteran grit to USF
In the 2025 season, Marlyn Bryant was listed by ESPN as a South Florida guard averaging 5.5 points, 3.4 rebounds, 1.3 assists, and 44.5% shooting, while another stat source credited him with 1.6 steals per game and strong all-around guard production. His calling card isn’t just numbers: older coverage described him as a passionate, rugged defender, and a former coach nicknamed him “The Energizer Bunny,” which fits a high-motor, disruptive style. For a team needing toughness, energy, and defensive edge, he looks like a useful fit.
