Sunday Buzz: One Team Losing The Transfer Portal
Five-star linebacker Xavier Griffin, who previously had been committed to USC, committed to Alabama today. USC isn’t exactly moving into the new Dedeaux Field (or whatever it might call it) in style given that it lost its best pitcher, a top relief pitcher and second-best hitter to the transfer portal.

Morning Buzz: Anxious Time For Some USC Fans
USC season-ticket holders were supposed to find out yesterday afternoon who got tickets for coveted road games like Notre Dame, Nebraska and Oregon. But the deadline passed without any notices on the road games. Of course. Can’t say I’m surprised.

Not that the powers … Continue reading Morning Buzz: Anxious Time For Some USC Fans
