USC Notes: Waiting For Announcement

It is disappointing that at midday Monday, USC still has not said anything about the death of Joey Browner or published an obituary. There’s plenty of time to do social media posts mocking Oregon, but acknowledging the passing of an All-American and one of the greatest defensive backs in school history is another matter, apparently. It’s quite a contrast to the Minnesota Vikings, who not … Continue reading USC Notes: Waiting For Announcement

That’s not what you want to hear with a huge three-game series against No. 1-ranked UCLA looming next weekend. Maybe the past three games was a blip. We’ll find out. But the … Continue reading Is It Time To Worry About USC Baseball?

USC Saturday Buzz: Back In The Coliseum

USC held a SCRIMMAGE today at the Coliseum with recruits and others in attendance. I keep mentioning these Saturday workouts at the Coliseum because I’m not sure what difference it would make to allow the public to attend them. Nothing top secret is happening and the fans would be fine some scrimmaging or a practice. Just something. But scrimmaging did take place today.
