It’s a quiet Sunday so USC decided to release its spring practice schedule. I guess it doesn’t matter since Carol Folt had already announced the spring game was April 11.
But announcing on a Sunday of a three-day weekend? Really?
USC Releases Spring Schedule
Oh great. Another fucking “Showcase.” So dumb.

I thought maybe with the new assistants we might get a real scrimmage like the good ole days…

Would one benefit the team/ players or just the fans who don’t care about players once they retire?

Yes, what is up with “showcase”?
Spring scrimmage, spring game, both are fine. But showcase?
Always were great events for kids.

Señor, while it was good for the fan, how enjoyable could it be for kids who train year round these days?

Arturo, I didn’t draw the distinction between “showcase” and “scrimmage”on the basis of contact. Is that the difference?

I’ve only been to a scrimmage and that was before they toned it down. There is a reason for the NCAA, NFL, and high school football to reduce the contact- it puts the players’ health and well being at risk. Teams across the board aren’t as “fundamentally “ sound when it comes to tackling, but I’d rather see that than the players unnecessarily beating each other to a pulp.

If it is a showcase like we’ve had in the past under Clay, it will be disappointing. We’re all hoping that Bohn has cut the legs out from under Clay and the new guys get to coach how they see fit. A showcase like we’ve seen before would lead us all to believe it will just be more of the same.

Showcase = less risk of injuries.
Sounds good.

HE DIDN’T HAVE TO… HE ALREADY HAD MULTIPLE FULL CONTACT PRACTICES DURING SPRING AND THE FIRAST HALF OF THE SEASON.
HE DID NOT HAVE A HIT AND GIGGLE SPRING SHOWCASE TO EMBARASS HIS FOOTBALL PROGRAM.
YOUR’RE COMPARING QUALITY APPLES TO SOUR ORANGES!!

If the spring schedule was released on a busy weekday, Eeyore would complain that they were trying to bury it.
