A lot of chickens have come home to roost since August. For example, I said the USC secondary was a big problem entering the season. It was a big problem. I said the offensive line was going to be a weakness. It was a glaring weakness. I’ve railed about Andy Enfield for years. Who’s defending him today? USC was picked to finish second. It is … Continue reading USC Morning Buzz: The Problems Are Clear; Now Solve Them
Bronny James was more than respectable against UCLA last night but played only 14 minutes. Has Andy Enfield decided James won’t be back and he doesn’t want to invest more time in James? Bronny made his only shot, had two rebounds, two assists and no turnovers. He had a +8 plus-minus rating.

Can they take extra batting practice anywhere? At El Camino College? At Great Park in Irvine? Is there transportation available if a player wants to stay late and hit? Does El Camino … Continue reading Saturday Buzz: Football Used To Be Just Part Of Physical Options at USC
Washington State swept Arizona this season after it defeated the Wildcats at McKale Center last night and is currently in first place in the Pac-12. How is USC doing? The Cougars were picked 10th in the Pac-12 media poll. USC was picked second. Pennell’s big break came in 1961, when he landed the lead role in the TV series Ripcord, where Pennell protrayed a skydiver. … Continue reading If It’s Friday, It’s Time For A USC Notes Column
