South Florida has hired Skip Holtz to replace Jim Leavitt as football coach, according to a report from Fanhouse.
Holtz, the son of legendary coach and ESPN analyst Lou Holtz, went 38-27 in four years at East Carolina and led the Pirates to four bowl games. He also served as Connecticut's coach from 1994-1998.
Leavitt was fired on Jan. 8 after an investigation into allegations he grabbed and struck a player during halftime of a Nov. 21 game.
