You want to know the difference between being at USC and Arizona? New cornerback Christian Roland-Wallace sprained his ankle the first day of spring practice and when he returned, he was put on the second team. If he were at Arizona, he would have been right back on the first team when he came back from the injury. To his credit, Roland-Wallace intercepted a pass in Monday’s … Continue reading At USC, You Have To Compete
There’s been some recent fanboy reports that wide receiver Mario Williams wanted to play baseball. I put so much stock in them that I ignored Williams last month when I mentioned potential football-baseball players and generally poured water on the idea unless it is a big-time prospect like Duce Robinson.

And that $200 does not include any alcoholic beverages. Those can be purchased separately at a cash bar. So if you go with your family, you’re looking at $1,000 for … Continue reading We Have A New USC Money-Making Scheme!
This was the first-team USC offensive line during Monday’s practice: That’s two transfers (Tarquin, Kingston) and don’t forget there’s another one on the way: Ethan White of Florida. White should start at left guard, so the line will have three transfers. How much better will the line be? A lot depends on Tarquin. He played nine games at right tackle for Florida last season. Left … Continue reading USC Offensive Line Offers Preview Of Fall Lineup
