Bad Athletic Directing 101
Since Lynn Swann is finally under the microscope, here’s another story of how he acts. I heard a USC donor approached him recently about the state of the baseball program and Swann did not want to listen and then became argumentative. This is consistent with many other stories I’ve heard about Swann not wanting to interact or respect others. Continue reading Bad Athletic Directing 101

It will be interesting to see what defense Heinel mounts. It will also be interesting to see if she implicates anyone else at USC. I haven’t heard yet what Jovan Vavic is saying to people. I’m sure some of his defense … Continue reading USC Sunday Buzz: Who Else Knew?
