USC Morning Buzz: A Change For The Better

USC has shuffled its coaching staff and — believe it or not — I think it’s for the better.

Trovon Reed has been hired to replace Taylor Mays and here’s why I like it: Reed will coach cornerbacks, which is the position he played in college and coached at Central Florida last season.

Mays coached safeties. It didn’t really make sense because secondary coach Doug Belk’s specialty was coaching safeties, so there was a redundancy there.

Now it’s more efficient and likely an upgrade for the corners, who will be coached by a former corner.

I get a kick out of the defensive hires because Lincoln Riley obviously has nothing to do with them.

  • I’ve been told by a high school insider not to discount USC’s chances with five-star shooting guard Alijah Arenas and that the two frontrunners are Arizona and Musselman U.
  • Annie Hanson, USC’s Executive Director of Recruiting, said she is stepping back from her role following the birth of her child. That’s expected to be a popular move in the athletic dept.

Removing Cowardly Gabby aka Charlie Bucket the UCLA Fan aka TebowObama aka The Guy who posts as So Cal’s Wife & Michael Guarino & LawyerJohn & Pudly & Plow Horse & steveg49 & DOJ & Scott Wolf & Kathy & Foreskin Thoughts & Frank Young would be a change for the better . They loved to preach to us about the Joy of Senile Joe and Kamala the last 4 years and now mourn the demise of the illegitimate Deep State Regime.

  2. Way to go Wolf! You actually said some good things about USC. You did get that little negative thing about Riley in there but that’s okay as long as you balance it with something that is good. I hope this is a part of your New Year’s resolution beginning to take hold.

      2. Cowardly Gabby, you’re not alone, and there is a path forward even though you’re a thoroughly indoctrinated Marxist who is desperately worried about “climate change” and “trans rights,” for everything is going down the drain. But cheer up: Donald Trump is now the 47th president of the United States. Compared to the horrible things that will happen in America over (at least) the next four years, the weeks between Election Day and his inauguration may be remembered as the good times.

  10. What does the “Executive Director of Recruiting” do? She doesn’t evaluate talent or recruit. We have coaches and a newly minted GM at 1 million a year for that job. Has nothing to do with the NIL. I bet she books flights and hotels for the recruits and perhaps coordinates their activities while visiting the campus. Is their an “Associate Director of Recruiting.” Got to love these titles.

      1. Well Trump did eliminate DEI in all Federal programs and all institutions that accept Federal money. That would include USC. He also instructed his DOJ to specifically investigate colleges who have maintain DEI policies in admissions after the Supreme Court ruling in Students For Fair Admissions vs. Harvard College. This would include USC. Can’t wait for Folt to retire. Her woke policies have been a disaster.
