USF lost at Tulsa, then left two players behind at the airport
A deflating season for South Florida men’s basketball got even more embarrassing Friday when the team left two of its players behind at an airport in Houston.
The Bulls, 7-20 and 1-15 in the AAC, lost Thursday night at Tulsa, then flew to Houston, where they would board a connecting flight back to Tampa. However, according to the Tampa Bay Times, two players, Troy Holston and Geno Thorpe, fell asleep at the airport. Nobody noticed, and the two were left behind when the team’s flight took off.
Monique Holston-Greene, the mother of one of the players left behind, ripped the program shortly after hearing of the incident.
“It’s very disappointing, and it’s a reflection of how terrible a program the men’s basketball program is,” Holston-Greene, told the Tampa Bay Times.
