I said yesterday everyone has to take Lincoln Riley’s word when scrimmages are closed.
Well, it turned out Riley was wrong when he said defensive end Anthony Lucas returned a fumble for a TD during the scrimmage. It was actually linebacker Raesjon Davis.
I’m sure Davis wasn’t too thrilled when Lucas got the initial credit. And I wonder if Riley got the wrong player because it was on defense and he was fixated on the unidentified QB who fumbled.
Of course, if the scrimmage had some actual witnesses, this error would have been immediatly corrected. Not seven hours later.
InsideUSC with Scott Wolf 
Who cares? I want to know? Somebody fumbled and somebody scored, will this be remembered tomorrow? I am trying hard to remember a head coach that Scott actually liked. He has been so contrary towards USC for so long, if he had something nice to say about a head coach I think I’d check my eyes. Scott has 26 letters to get straight and he doesn’t always get it. How many players does Riley have to choose from? I mused about the fact that the first 13 jersey number have duplicates (except for 3,5 &11) there are also duplicate last names. I’d be fumbling names all the time.
Anyway Happy Easter. The Resurrection has happened.

This is ridiculous. It’s Spring Ball and this plankton is crying about credit for a meaningless turnover. Raesjon Davis wants playing time and that depends on Alex Grinch.

Does it really matter who returned the fumble in a scrimmage. Besides, an unidentified PAC 12 coach told me that if wasn’t a football but rather a giant chocolate Easter egg that looked like a football and the egg slip out of Caleb’s hands. Happy Easter everyone.

I always wondered how college football coaches could keep in mind 100 or so
players’ names, so I will cut Wiles some slack seeing it’s Easter and all–
And speaking of Easter the other item that is largely forgotten
is how God demonstrated the perception of women being equal to men
(or as modern woman might say, ‘Why stop there?)
for by most accounts it was Mary Magdalene chosen first to see the Jesus-apparition,
in the day when women were considered untrustworthy witnesses due to their
perceived histrionics (isn’t that why we men love them?)

LJ: There are over a billion people who don’t believe it was an apparition. The Bible recounts that 5,000 people witnessed Jesus coming back from the dead. Apparitions occur to one person in one place not multiple people in multiple places. All of the apostles except John were killed because they refused to denounce their Christian beliefs. You don’t die for such a belief unless you genuinely expect to be resurrected with Christ.

It is fascinating, John, that the male apostles reported [admitted] Mary Magdalene encountered Jesus before anyone else. Since you’re right about women not being considered reliable witnesses at the time [under Roman or Jewish law]— that isn’t the narrative one would want to push [unless it were true].

OK John: Agree that Christianity elevates woman and having women at the foot of the cross while the men fled and women the first witnesses to the empty tomb and Mary mother of God as the first apostle shows that God loves women as much as men. And you did say “apparition” and I just could not let it go because an actual Jesus and an actual resurrection is a foundational Christian belief. Happy Easter LJ. I usually agree with you on the USC football and cultural stuff. Religion, not so much.

John is a modern intellectual —and I think it’s hard for modern intellectuals to embrace the idea of Christ actually rising from the dead. To me, however, it seems—- in the words of Oscar Wilde— “as natural as sunrises and spring.”
And I agree with you: Peter wouldn’t ask to be crucified upside down if he invented the resurrection story for attention. He knew the Romans were gonna say, “no problem.”

I am really hoping Raesjon gets on the field this year, but I really just want to see Tackett become a star. Harold Perkins has become a star linebacker in Year 1 at LSU, maybe Tackett can be that at USC.
Linebacker is about vision and ability to react fast. I think Tackett has that.

I wondered what the definition of fanboy is. I looked it up and it is derogatory (as expected) It originated with comic book fans, obsessed with particular heroes or villains. It has since been co-opted to include sports teams or players. It was rated as overused in 2019 The term has its own movie, which I haven’t seen. I couldn’t find an antonym (except troll 👿)
I guess Scott hates his readers as much as the school, coaches and yellow tights.

MG: Those Marilyn photos are spectacular. I never truly got the Marilyn Monroe phenomenon until Scott provided those photos by Greene. She became my vision of the ultimate female, Eve or Venus, God’s handiwork. I felt a bit depressed after viewing them. How could something so beautiful, so vulnerable, so seemingly deserving of love and happiness and protection, lose hope and die by overdose or suicide. I found the Greene website and he has other stars but nothing evokes anything like Marilyn. If Scott does nothing else, he introduce us to those photos and for that I am grateful.

Every male photographer has his favorite subject —- it seemed Bob Willoughby’s was Elizabeth Taylor. But, you’re right, Greene’s connection to Marilyn was special. I never thought of her as beautiful until Scott started running those pictures on Fridays.
