Notes: Rutgers Has Become Arizona On USC Football Schedule

I’ve heard USC senior associate athletic director Paul Perrier is working with Jen Cohen on the basketball coaching search. I hope his duties include “due diligence.” There was a report Bronny James entered the transfer portal yesterday but nothing has been set yet regarding James’ future.

It certainly lends fuel to the idea Wright’s absence is related to some type of disciplinary matter. Wright is not on the USC roster. Riley said he wants USC to improve its kicking game: “It’s an area we know we have to perform better at, certainly … Continue reading USC Notes: Kicking Game Needs Improvement
