Alex English, an NBA legend and star player at South Carolina, is a member of his alma mater’s Board of Trustees. Can you imagine if USC did something like that? Having an accomplished athlete who understands sports and can add the concerns of athletics during discussions on the university? Whenever USC has had an athlete on its board, it was like they were went out … Continue reading Where Is The Voice For Athletics At USC?
USC routed Stanford on Wednesday night and kept itself in position to win the Pac-12. So what does Andy Enfield do? Whine about the schedule. “It is disappointing that Oregon doesn’t have to play UCLA in Pauley (Pavilion) like they were supposed to, but that’s all I really can say,” Enfield said after the Stanford game. All he can say? Why can’t he say more … Continue reading USC Morning Buzz: Nothing Like Whining Over A Victory
What an advertisement for Pac-12/Stanford basketball. Simply awful basketball. USC doesn’t mind, however, as Tahj Eaddy returned to form with 16 points (6-8 FGs) while Evan Mobley had 10 points and eight rebounds in probably his last game at the Galen Center. Stanford missed 44 of 59 shots and shot 25 percent. If USC beats UCLA on Saturday and Oregon loses, the Trojans win the … Continue reading USC 79, Stanford 42

Mayo? Or Harold Miner? Miner averaged 20.6 points per game as a freshman with 3.6 rebounds and 1.2 assists. Mayo averaged 20.7 points. DeRozan averaged … Continue reading Where Does Evan Mobley Rank?
Alabama athletic director Greg Byrne announced he expects a full-capacity crowd at Bryant-Denny Stadium in the fall. The problem with USC is it cannot expect a full-capacity crowd even if it allows a full-capacity crowd at the Coliseum. USC does not release season-ticket renewals, with good reason. Sales were down, before the pandemic, and the trend continued the past 12 months. As things start to … Continue reading What Would Full-Capacity Coliseum Mean In 2021?
A USC student sent me this photo Monday. They said it was on a wall of a building on Figueroa St. about 2-3 blocks from campus. It’s surprising because that’s the kind of thing you might see in the SEC. Then again, I wrote yesterday that fans are even more fed up after not being able to vent last season, so maybe it’s not surprising. Continue reading Morning Buzz: A Sign USC Can Be Like SEC Schools
