Tee Martin Returning To Tennessee
Former USC offensive coordinator Tee Martin has been hired in an unspecified role at Tennessee, according to ESPN. Tennessee already hired a new offensive coordinator (Jim Chaney) last week and currently does not have an opening on its staff, so someone is expected to leave. Martin had his shortcomings at USC but the big takeaway will always be how Clay Helton used to let Martin … Continue reading Tee Martin Returning To Tennessee
Looks Like Mike Jinks Is Staying At USC
The Cardinals are hiring James Saxon of the Pittsburgh Steelers as their new running backs coach according to the NFL Network. That means USC will apparently retain Mike Jinks as its running backs coach. So Kliff Kingsbury thought Jinks was good enough to coach tailbacks at USC but not the Arizona Cardinals?

It just seems like a good time for the athletic director to be taking a hands-on approach to USC football. … Continue reading It’s Another Day Without Real Change

USC Morning Buzz: Clay Helton And Andy Enfield Have Something In Common
My sources tell me USC basketball player Kevin Porter got suspended indefinitely because he “cussed out” USC coach Andy Enfield in Oregon. Whether Porter even wants to return is debatable because he seems to have one foot in the NBA Draft. But the fact he got into a verbal altercation with Enfield demonstrates how players do not respect the coach. Just like guard Jordan Usher … Continue reading USC Morning Buzz: Clay Helton And Andy Enfield Have Something In Common
