It’s going to be interesting when USC releases its spring roster whether it includes a No. 55.
I’ve already written a current defensive player, who hasn’t done much so far, wants the number. I’ve heard former USC players are against it.
Who wins?
We’ll know soon when the roster comes out. Will tradition win out or catering to players?
- Did you watch the USC hype video I posted yesterday that had more Chad Bowden than Lincoln Riley?
If you had an eagle-eye, you also noticed the Coliseum needs to replace its tattered California state flag.

A LEGEND PASSES AWAY

Gene was one of the greatest actors of his, or anyone's generation. He was a powerhouse, as adept at comedy as he was drama. Today is a very sad day, we've lost a legend. Gene was a giant of cinema.

Gene Hackman, not a great looking actor in the image conscious Hollywood, but he had a manner that exuded a quiet confidence

RIP Gene Hackman. Nobody was a better actor. Incredible range. Love the scene in Young Frankenstein where he played a blind monk who set the monster’s finger on fire thinking it was a cigar.

KAM: Socialism turned Venezuela from the richest country in all of South America into an economic basket case. Starvation, violence, and lack of basic medical necessities are among the nightmares that have plagued the country that was once so prosperous. Under the late dictator Hugo Chavez and his current hand-picked successor Maduro, Venezuela has suffered under years of economic catastrophe, thanks to the Communist ideology its government imposed on it.
DON: So of course Senile Joe granted concessions to Venezuela under Maduro. We just reversed them!

Maybe there was more of ‘Bow-Down’ on the clip than Wiley, but he is an unknown quantity where Wiles is pretty well known

I think that flag pretty much sums up the state of California these days.
Watch ” The Conversation “. It’s a weird, creepy flick with weird creepy characters, but it’s a freaking great film.

No mention of USC basketball. No thanks Enfield from Wolf? SMU is 21-7 in the tough ACC. What is USC in the Big Ten? 14-14. It sure looks like Enfield could coach. Thanks Wolf.

If Eric Gentry want No. 55, give it to him. He is going to have a big season playing behind a huge interior defensive line.

Not worthy, nope. He isn’t even close to being a Clairborne, McGinest or Seau.

I had really hoped Mason Cobb was going to be the one to earn #55. But not consistent enough.

If the criteria is Clairborne or Seau, you may as well retire the number.
