Brian Fisher, USF's all-purpose football player and last year's offensive most valuable player, was arrested Monday by campus police on an outstanding warrant for delinquent child support payments.
He was transported to the Hillsborough County Jail where he was booked and released after posting $570.
According to the USF arrest report, Fisher was wanted by officials in Pensacola and was arrested at 7:53 a.m. in Parking Lot 35 on the USF campus. Fisher attended Pine Forest High School in Pensacola. As with any campus arrest, the case will be reported to Student Affairs.
He has not attended spring workouts this week, according to USF sports information director John Gerdes.
"We are continuing to look into the situation," Gerdes said, "and he will not practice until we are satisfied with the outcome."
A senior next season who has practiced at running back during spring drills, Fisher played numerous positions for the Bulls last season, including quarterback, running back and wide receiver as well as returning punts and kickoffs. He finished the season as the team's third-leading scorer and ranked fourth in rushing yards, third in passing yards, third in receiving yards, first in punt returns and second in kickoff returns.
