Rob Ryan is in fact coaching at spring practices, which means USC does have three linebacker coaches. No pun intended but this is a bloated coaching staff. Ohio State defensive coordinator Matt Patricia will be paid $3.75 million in 2026, making him the highest-paid assistant in the country.

I’m well aware the … Continue reading USC Sunday Buzz: Some Hard Truths With Basketball
Fox Sports 1 pulled a debacle tonight. It did not broadcast the USC-UCLA game until 10.9 seconds were left in the first half. That’s because the Panama-Puerto Rico baseball game ran long (and it was a great game!). Fox said you could watch the USC-UCLA game on its app but several USC fans told me they couldn’t even get the game on the app. Why … Continue reading Fox Sports Bungles USC-UCLA Broadcast
