Important Announcement About USC Blog

When I started this blog 29 months ago, it was going to be more of a hobby after covering USC for more than 20 years.

I never imagined it would grow to its current size and attract such a loyal audience.

Well, now it’s time to grow even more. Today, I’m taking the InsideUSC blog to Sports Illustrated. The new address is https://www.si.com/college/usc/

The new USC blog will be the same in many ways but will have much more video, more recruiting and a stronger “community” area for comments. I hope you will join me at the new site for even more USC coverage.

    GOOD AND HARD:

    ● Portland Cops Are Getting the Hell Out of Antifastan and Retiring in Record Numbers.

    ● Seattle’s police chief criticized a plan to defund police, the city council responded by slashing her salary.

    ● A third of Minneapolis police could leave the force by the end of the year with no replacements in sight.

    ● NYC Murders Up 50% for Month of July, NYPD Stats Show.

    Even the New York Times has figured out that the “new normal” isn’t sustainable: Abolish the Police? Those Who Survived the Chaos in Seattle Aren’t So Sure. What is it like when a city abandons a neighborhood and the police vanish? Business owners describe a harrowing experience of calling for help and being left all alone.

  13. Did Every Village Elect Its Idiots to City Council and the Mayor’s Office…or Just Democrats?

    Portland Mayor Ted Wheeler (D) has finally acknowledged reality: The protests in his city are violent and, in many cases, the actions the “mostly peaceful” protesters are taking amount to attempted murder. As my colleague Tyler O’Neil notes:

    On Thursday, after the 68th consecutive night of violent riots in Portland, Mayor Ted Wheeler (D-Portland) finally urged activists who seriously desire police reform not to join the murderous and destructive antifa mob wreaking havoc in his city. Better late than never? While Wheeler finally issued a full-throated condemnation of the violence, he also warned rioters that they are “creating the B-roll film” for the campaign to reelect President Donald Trump.

        An awesome system vetted them for skill, intelligence, resiliency, commitment, and perseverance. It forced them to remain eligible by progressing toward graduation….

        There is nothing more liberal than the student athlete experience at an American University. I hope the numb-tards don’t scuttle a truly successful, egalitarian system (which does not exist in the Europe Union nor Asia.)

  18. POSTED ON AUGUST 8, 2020 BY PAUL MIRENGOFF

    TRUMP’S POLITICAL MASTERSTROKE

    President Trump says he will sign an Executive Order to ease the suffering of those harmed by the pandemic-related shutdowns and to stimulate the economy. Congress has failed to agree on a new package to accomplish these things.

    Trump’s Executive Order would include these four components: (1) a payroll tax holiday until the end of the year, (2) an extension of enhanced unemployment benefits until the end of the year, (3) an extension of the eviction moratorium for federal subsidized housing, and (4) a suspension of student loan payments until further notice.

    Questions surround the legality of accomplishing at least some of these things via executive order. Trump’s response to that might be, “so sue me.”

    There are also questions about the fiscal impact of some of the measures, at least for those who still care about the national debt. In addition, there are questions about the efficacy of a payroll tax cut and the wisdom of extended generous unemployment benefits.

    However, as a political matter, Trump’s move looks like a masterstroke. Since the days of FDR, the public has always seemed to approve of presidents who act to ameliorate suffering while Congress diddles. A flurry of activity, even of the futile or potentially counterproductive kind, makes a president look energetic and caring.

    In this instance, Trump’s move might well force congressional Democrats to reach a deal. That outcome, too, would be a political win for the president.

    UPDATE: Trump has now signed the Order. The obvious displeasure of The Washington Post is further evidence that Trump has made a smart political move.

    senileobama hardest hit!

    Unreal how USC raised tuition for 2020 – 2021 school year. It has to be in their 10 ten blunders in history.

    Let’s come up with USC’s top ten blunders –
    #1 Bad Hires by bloated BOD – Nikias, Folt
    #2 Bad Management / No Oversight- Tyndall and Puliafito scandals
    #3 Bad AD hires – Haden and Swan
    #4 Bad coaching hires by AD – Helton, Sarkisian, Hubbs
    #5 Bad decisions – Decision to not fight NCAA re: Bush and OJ Mayo LOI charges
    #6 Abuse of power – Allow Nikias to be on BOD for Life!!
    #7 Wasteful spending – Part 1 – Nikias’ severance package
    #8 Wasteful spending – Part 2 – Buying Folt home in Santa Monica
    #9 Firing USC Business School Dean James Ellis
    #10 Allowing increase in tuition during a pandemic while only allowing online classes

    Funny how all of these blunders occurred in this century.
