I’m going to go out on a limb and say JuJu Watkins is having a big impact on USC women’s basketball recruiting. USC got commitments today from two five-star prospects today: Kennedy Smith, a 6-1 forward from Etiwanda High School in Rancho Cucamonga and Kayleigh Heckel, a 5-9 guard from Port Chester, N.Y. Smith is ranked among the top 10 players nationally while Heckel is … Continue reading USC Women’s Basketball Recruiting Has Big Day
Lincoln Riley gets his first taste of Autzen Stadium tonight.If that’s not enough, you know Dan Lanning will run up the score if he can. Like I said earlier, this will go one of two ways for the defense: It will either play free with a simplified game plan and flourish.

His comment this week that he didn’t watch film of the Washington game drew a rebuke from former USC linebackers Su’a Cravens and Dion Bailey. But my issue is a little different. Aren’t the defensive coaches making the players watch film? Brian Odom is the inside linebackers coach and co-interim defensive coordinator. Isn’t he … Continue reading USC Morning Buzz: To Watch Or Not To Watch Film
Did Lincoln Riley meet with the Chicago Bears when he was out for a couple days last month? That’s a rumor traveling through the NFL grapevine. USC men’s and women’s basketball signed the No. 1-ranked players in the state of Idaho today. The men signed shooting guard Liam Campbell while the women signed guard Avery Howell, who is ranked 23rd overall nationally. USC track had … Continue reading USC Notes: An NFL Rumor And Signing Day!
