I don’t really disagree with Fox analyst Joel Klatt’s analysis of the USC defense.
But here’s the thing: If you read this blog, you know I always zeroed in on the secondary first and Klatt doesn’t even mention them below. That’s a convenient omission especially when Fox is always striving to be USC friendly with its cozy relationship and stable of lackeys (Colin Cowherd).
“The main takeaway for me is that I thought the defense showed signs it could be better,” Klatt added. “I didn’t say good, great or dominant, just better. There were definitive signs they could be a better defense than last year. Not hard! That’s a low bar. But they had some size and physicality in the front seven. They were faster and tackled better at times in the open field. So, I was like, ‘OK, while it’s not perfect, there are elements here to build on for this defense and Lincoln Riley.'”
- Minnesota athletic director Mark Coyle told the St. Paul Pioneer-Press he was not interested in the USC job.
“I was contacted about that opportunity,” Coyle said. “And I explained to them that my contract situation here in Minnesota, which we feel very comfortable with, and very fair with, I explained to him that I have a son, who actually (Tuesday was) his first day as a junior in high school at Cretin-Derham Hall. … After that conversation, I did not hear back from anybody at the search firm.”

Who are we kidding, this is no Pete Carroll defense…you can’t win a national championship with that defense.

A book detailing the President Joe Biden’s first two years in office is coming out next week, The Last Politician: Inside Joe Biden’s White House and the Struggle for America’s Future, written by The Atlantic’s Franklin Foer:
One tense moment for Biden was when he was confronted by family members of the U.S. service members who died during the withdrawal.
“I hope you burn in hell,” a sister of one of the late service members screamed at Biden from a bus.
Biden admits that the results of the withdrawal forced him to second-guess himself.
“Did I do something wrong? Maybe I should have handled that differently,” Biden is quoted as saying to then-White House Press Secretary Jen Psaski.
MAYBE?!!

With the rule changes to speed up the game and in addition, SC passing offense the TOP should be a problem for the SC D. As the season heads into the SC second half, that problem is going to rear it’s ugly head. Hard to get a terrific DC when you have a Mike Leach type coach. Ask Sonny Dykes.
