USC Morning Buzz: Good Timing For Graham Harrell
Do I think USC’s offense will be better this season under Graham Harrell? Yes. I preface this item with that because of an interesting piece of information I got from someone with ties to North Texas, where Harrell was the offensive coordinator.

USC’s recruiting class is a collection of mostly three stars and ranked in the 50’s nationally. Does that sound “super selective”? When Helton tries to turn a negative into a positive it rarely … Continue reading Morning Buzz: USC Does Have A Recruiting Game Plan
