The 2016–17 South Florida Bulls men's basketball team represents the University of South Florida during the 2016–17 NCAA Division I men's basketball season. The season marks the 46th basketball season for USF and the fourth as a member of the American Athletic Conference. The Bulls are coached by Murry Bartow as interim head coach. The Bulls play their home games at the USF Sun Dome on the university's Tampa, Florida campus.

On January 3, 2017, Orlando Antigua was fired as head coach following a 6–7 start to the season and amid academic fraud allegations.

The Bulls finished the 2015–16 season 8–25, 4–14 in AAC play to finish in a tie for ninth place in conference. They beat East Carolina in the first round of the AAC Tournament before losing to Temple in the quarterfinals.

On July 20, 2016, Oliver Antigua, assistant coach and brother to head coach Orlando Antigua, resigned due to NCAA academic fraud allegations.
