The Trojan Who Won An Oscar
With the Oscars tonight, it’s always good to remember Cotton Warburton. Warburton (above with the ball) is a member of the College Football Hall of Fame, was an All-American in 1933 at USC, led the Trojans in rushing in 1932-33 and played on the undefeated 1932 national championship team. If that was not enough, he won an Oscar for best editing in 1965 as the … Continue reading The Trojan Who Won An Oscar
A Reaction To JT Daniels
So JT Daniels told the Athletic, “Every job should be open every season. It’s kind of the way football works and the way life works in general. You can’t get complacent. You can’t just expect to have everything handed to you.” Let’s hope he feels that way in case Graham Harrell overcomes the pressure from Clay Helton and makes Jack Sears the starter.

Helton never has his own guy. … Continue reading USC Morning Buzz: The Clock Keeps Ticking On Personnel Move
Oregon State Defeats USC
In case you do not get the Pac-12 Network, like me, USC was 0-6 on free throws. USC trailed 57-56 with 2:45 left but Oregon State then made 10 straight free throws. Jonah Mathews had 15 points and Bennie Boatwright 13 in his final regular-season home game. USC is 15-13, 8-7. Continue reading Oregon State Defeats USC
Another Recruiting Issue For USC
There is also another reason why USC’s stock is falling with recruits. “They aren’t putting a lot of guys in the league either,” a recruiting analyst who speaks to recruits often said. “There is a question about how much this coaching staff develops players.” This is why Elias Ricks talked about LSU having more defensive backs drafted than USC in recent years, when he committed … Continue reading Another Recruiting Issue For USC
