USC Sunday Buzz: A Slimmer Program Ahead

Lincoln Riley still wants to bring in 10-15 transfers but he is also going to have slimmer program than last year.

I’m told Riley wants 115 players this season in the program. Last year, USC had a whopping 129 on its roster. And that didn’t include the imposter.

Remember him? It’s the one-year anniversay of him showing at spring practice and fielding punts. And using the jacuzzi at the McKay Center.

  • Former USC point guard Ethan Anderson tells Jon Rothstein he is considering the following schools: Nevada, TCU, Wyoming, UNLV, Boise State, Temple, BYU, UC Santa Barbara, Cal, Washington State and Oregon State.

The irony if Anderson went to UNLV is he committed there originally before he switched to USC.

  • After Kansas got routed by USC last year in the NCAA Tournament, Jayhawks coach Bill Self said the team needed to become more athletic.

“I think we are more athletic [than last year] and it’s the same guys,” Self said Sunday. “They deserve all the credit.”

  1. You of course have heard of Caleb Williams of SC, but there is another Caleb who plays for North Carolina. And this Caleb Love guy, all 6’2″ of him, beat sucla with two 3s in the closing seconds, and now just beat Duke with 28 points and a finishing 3-pointer in the final seconds.

    It was a remarkable game, and the loser was going to be in the dumps, but most of the Duke players did not partake in the traditional end-of-game handshake, which entrenches Duke as one of the low-class college teams in the nation.

      1. Fortunately they don’t require footballers to shake hands after a game, Michael.– Probably a good thing because after being mauled for 3-hours by an opposing 300 pound brute, I would probably rather give him a knuckle sandwich than a handshake.

  2. The “rising star” (LOL) of the Trojans secondary is this anemic looking 180 lbs. soaking wet DB Calen Bullock.

    That kid ain’t going to cut it, she won’t last a half season…too small, too weak.

    Hey ‘Ol Mule Shoe, slim down the roster and get those Ladies of Troy to pick up a ham sandwich or two, that’s if you can pry ’em from the pineapple pipeline players hands as they sit on the sidelines eating while nursing their skinned knees.

      1. I’m tired of seeing and hearing about these Ladies of Troy being built up with all this hype and then turning out to be busts.

        Are you telling me this kid Bullock didn’t know that he should have been trying to put on weight even before he got to a D1 program? She’s 180 lbs., so they say…looks more like 165-170 to me.

        To me that spells laziness.

      2. “…pick up a ham sandwich or two…” are neutral words, MG, but unfortunately T-Bone had to “sandwich” them between nasty references.

        T-Bone deserves a knuckle sandwich, or as recent parlance has changed the expression to ‘Will Smith the stupid dude.’

      3. Here is an interview with Calen Bullock, who is 188 lbs, working to get to 195.

        He is asked, what is new here?

        “We are here to win. Riley is all about winning.”

        Asked about the new D: “We are playing faster and more aggressively.”

        Asked whether Dante is coaching differently: “Oh, yes!”

Pasadena City College had a lot of good football players & a lot of Jr.College RoseBowls,back many yrs ago…and I think he should get credit for choosing a school with a good football history and sending players to SC,and former SC all american Tay Brown sent most of them…something positive for a change

  5. Carol Folt did attend UC Santa Barbara- the same school where radical students in Isla Vista burned down one of the great institutions in America called the Bank of America. Sadly, she became the President of USC, and tried but failed to burned down one of the great institutions in America called USC Trojan football thus far. I guess Carol could be classified as anti-society or a hippy still today.
