If It’s Friday, It’s Time For A USC Notes Column
This week was the 25th anniversary of the O.J. Simpson white Bronco chase. And of course, the driver was Al Cowlings, who now has a building named after him at USC. People I know who run into Cowlings tell me he doesn’t talk about the current USC football team these days, let alone Simpson. But back to Simpson. A USC football player, who is about … Continue reading If It’s Friday, It’s Time For A USC Notes Column

One year when Pete Carroll was at USC, I went to a camp and during a lunch break, there was only a punter on the field trying to … Continue reading USC Morning Buzz: Camp Stories!
USC Night Notes
New USC baseball coach Jason Gill has hired former Nebraska assistant Ted Silva as an assistant coach. They were teammates at Cal State Fullerton and spent 2011 together at Loyola Marymount. USC fans might remember Silva as the winning pitcher for Cal State Fullerton in its 11-5 victory over USC in the 1995 College World Series championship game. Gill is also expected to retain USC … Continue reading USC Night Notes
