I hear San Jose State has been quite aggressive in trying to get scouting reports on USC from last year’s opponents. It’ll be interesting to see what areas San Jose State thinks it can attack (the defense). And whether the Spartans have any chance of keeping the game under the point spread (30 points). Interesting venue. Does USC endorse the lawsuit? There is speculation USC … Continue reading USC Morning Buzz: Caleb Williams And Mother Join Fansville

She doesn’t have any skeletons and knows the landscape. … Continue reading USC To Hire Washington Athletic Director Jen Cohen

Did you go to the Salute to Troy on Friday night? First, the good. USC ditched the campus hospitality food service and brought back the long-time restaurant/caterer that did previous Salute to Troys before last year.
