Jared Brantley joined the USF Men's Basketball program the same year that head coach Stan Heath did and in his six seasons in Tampa, has quickly moved up the ranks as he currently is serving as an administrative assistant.

Brantley has served in many positions as a Bull, starting as the head manager for his first four years. He worked out USF standouts Dominique Jones, Jarrid Famous, Augustus Gilchrist and Ron Anderson while assisting with practice and overseeing recruiting mail-outs.

After graduating with a B.A. in history in May of  2011, Brantley stayed on staff as graduate assistant during the Bulls' memorable 2011-12 season that saw the Bulls make it to the Third Round of the NCAA Championship. Brantley oversaw the undergraduate manager program, including hiring, training and supervising, while also helping the coaching staff during practices and workouts.

In his current role as an administrative assistant, Brantley oversees two graduate assistants and seven undergraduate managers. He plays a key role in assisting with the student-athlete's academic progress, which has seen major improvements since Heath arrived on campus. Brantley coordinates on-campus recruiting activities while also maintaining the Bull's recruiting database. Additionally he assists the coaching staff with opponent scouting, aids the video coordinator with opponent film edits and helps the Director of Operations with the organization of the team's travel.
