Spring practice did not produce a starting quarterback, as expected. But in a way it has put the coaches in a bind: Whether it was Saturday’s final scrimmage or other times, when there the practice went “live,” Jack Sears was the better quarterback. This is not unusual. Remember, everyone thought JT Daniels was the better QB at last fall’s training camp but then the real … Continue reading USC QB Quandary
Saturday Night Live’s opening was a skit on the college admissions scandal, which featured Lori Loughlin telling the inmates why she is the baddest inmate: “Oh yeah, you think that’s insane? I paid 500 grand to get my daughter into USC,” Loughlin, played by Kate McKinnon, said. Watch below Continue reading USC Makes SNL
USC coach Clay Helton said the players would see an internal depth chart sometime next week. Why doesn’t he want the public to know? Who knows. The only position the fans really care about the depth chart is quarterback. This seems like another way Helton is trying to become more secretive.

The final USC spring practice is finally here. In an anti-climatic fashion, USC held three practices after its spring showcase last weekend. Today is the only practice of the week in full pads and Clay Helton is supposedly going to do some scrimmaging. The truth is nothing that happens today will really influence the QB derby because the competition will go to the fall. Here … Continue reading USC Morning Buzz: Spring’s Conclusion Finally Arrives
