The hypemasters will try to make today’s scrimmage but Kedon Slovis barely played and Keaontay Ingram was out. Drake London was out. The defense was ahead of the offense, which is always the case a week into camp. Jaxson Dart had three TD passes but two were in a short-field, simulated situations. Continue reading USC Scrimmages
Remember last year USC got a lot of credit for its handling of COVID-19, including getting the media to buy into that story? USC isn’t winning any awards at the moment. Defensive linemen Jamar Sekona and Kobe Pepe are in COVID-19 health and safety protocols. This comes just as Drake Jackson came out of the same protocols. Do they play defense in Utah?

And it includes cornerback Max Williams, who tore knee ligaments during the spring and … Continue reading A First Day In Pads Stat

Maualuga “drove through yards, plowed into mailboxes and ultimately hit a parked car before his arrest Wednesday, this according to police documents obtained by TMZ.
