USC Notes: Early Spring Means Short Winter

I saw something about how USC strength coach Trumain Carroll has his first full offseason with the Trojans since joining the staff last year.

Well, the Alamo Bowl was Dec. 30. Let’s say the team took a week off (at a mimimum). Spring practice started March 3. He really had less than eight weeks for winter workouts. UCLA starts spring practice April 2. That provides a real winter workout period.

  • USC baseball is 12-0 and off to its best start since 1988, when it started 15-0.
  • USC likes to pat iself on the back for its social media dept. Right after Chad Baker-Mazara got dismissed from the team Sunday it sent out this picture to Trojan fans with a picture of Baker-Mazara promoting the UCLA game.

    1. KAM: Add Skylar Phan’s name to the growing list of new faces heading to Ann Arbor.

      Michigan has tapped USC’s current director of recruiting strategy to join its football front office, according to multiple reports Tuesday.

      DON: Phan, a Texas graduate, aided USC in signing the top-ranked recruiting class of 2026, according to Rivals included “overseeing all officials and unofficial visits, providing individual recruiting strategies and building relationships with top targets and their families.”

  2. That tweet should have read, “We’ve got as much chance of beating the Ruins as this guy does of getting any minutes on the court!”

    “But buy tickets anyway!”

  3. KAM: Lou Hollz dead at 89.

    DON: Holtz is the only coach in history to take six different programs to bowl games and led Notre Dame to its last national championship, guiding the Fighting Irish to a 12-0 season in 1988 (with South Carolina native Tony Rice at quarterback). He is also the only coach to lead four different programs to Top-15 finishes in the national polls.
