Peter Read Miller, a legendary sports photographer who spent more than 35 years at Sports Ilustrated, passed away over the weekend.
He was Class of 1969 USC graduate and took photos for the school yearbook, El Rodeo, as a student.
For decades he took photos of USC football, including several cover photos for SI like these:


This is his photo of Dennis Smith and Joey Browner from the 1980 USC-Notre Dame game.

- So USC said Alijah Arenas would not play this week. As I wrote yesterday, Eric Musselman wanted him to play but sources said his family wanted him to wait.
Alijah Arenas hasn’t played a game and I am already done with him.
The photo of Joey Browner is spectacular.

Well, Alani Noa resigned with USC. Hopefully this will make Ed. G happy.

KAM: Marcus Freeman is expected to remain the head coach at Notre Dame in 2026 despite interest from several NFL teams, sources told ESPN’s Adam Schefter. Freeman received an enhanced contract last month to stay at Notre Dame but has been linked to multiple high-profile NFL head coaching jobs in recent weeks. The Pittsburgh Steelers became the latest team with a coaching vacancy Tuesday when Mike Tomlin announced he was stepping down after 19 seasons in Pittsburgh.
DON: Maybe the Steelers will take Riley Coyote?
