Did you hear Oklahoma athletic director Joe Castiglione’s viral comment yesterday about the Sooners’ move to the SEC? “Every coach that we talked to was excited,” he said. “And you know what, the ones that weren’t aren’t here anymore.” Every one took that as a reference to Lincoln Riley. No surprise. Since the day he left Oklahoma, I’ve said Riley did not want to compete … Continue reading USC Morning Buzz: Viral Shot At Lincoln Riley
Apparently, Domani Jackson is Cornerback No. 1 at Alabama. If he actually has a good season, that will be a real indictment of USC’s coaching.

The one thing I will say about this is USC landing a four-star from La Verne should be a layup. This is where some USC fans will immediately blame NIL. They would have done the same thing if Mikhail committed … Continue reading USC Sunday Buzz: Local Linebacker Chooses A&M
USC could get some good news tomorrow when four-star linebacker Noah Mikhail of Bonita High School in La Verne makes his college choice. Oregon and Texas A&M are his other choices. At least if Mikhail commits, the odds of him changing his mind and going to the SEC would be a lot less than if he were from Georgia or Florida. Mikhail makes his announcement … Continue reading USC Saturday Buzz: Recruiting Fortunes Could Reverse
