Back in the spring, I was told that Servite wide receiver Tetairoa McMillan was USC’s No. 1 target at the position. Well, tonight he committed to Oregon. Think about that: He didn’t go to Arizona with his buddies from Servite. He didn’t go to the Air Raid offense at USC. He went to Oregon. There needs to be an inquest over the recruiting of Clay … Continue reading USC Loses Another WR And It’s A Big One

When else do you want to hear who stood out or did something … Continue reading USC Sunday Buzz: The One Time You Want To Hear From Clay Helton
Former USC pitcher Tyler Gilbert threw a no-hitter for the Arizona Diamondbacks on Saturday night, the first pitcher to throw a no-hitter in his first Major League start since 1953. Gilbert, 27, made just his fourth career appearance in the majors.
