Athletics
In addition to his Hall of Fame and Super Bowl winning career with the Tampa Bay Buccaneers, Derrick Brooks has extensive connections and deep passion for Tampa Bay.
USF’s historic invitation to join the Association of American Universities has taken what many in Tampa Bay have once considered a “best-kept secret” to an unprecedented new level. Being an AAU member is a tremendous milestone for USF as it formalizes USF's position as a leading research university. USF is the first public university in Florida to be invited to join the AAU in nearly 40 years and is now one of only two institutions from the State University System of Florida to serve as an AAU member.
