Chris Tyree, the nation’s No. 1-ranked all-purpose back, committed to Notre Dame. I don’t blame USC that it could not land a back from Virginia. It’s a pretty tough ask. But it is interesting that USC did not even offer him a scholarship while 31 schools did. It’s not really a big deal because Clay Helton has changed and become a disciplinarian, Aaron Ausmus has … Continue reading USC Morning Buzz: Changes Made; Ignore Recruiting

Irvin was a … Continue reading USC Basketball Star Roy Irvin Passes Away
NCAA commissioner Mark Emmert made $3.9 million for 2017-18, according to Yahoo. That is outrageous until you consider it is 27 percent less than Pac-12 commissioner Larry Scott‘s $5.3 million salary for the same period. And the truth is, USC athletic director Lynn Swann is believed to make between $3-4 million a year. At least the NCAA and Pac-12 were transparent about those salary figures.
