Let’s take a step back and consider the offensive line Mater Dei High School featured in 2017: There was Tommy Brown (Alabama), Kekani Gonzalez (Boise State), Mason Kolinchak (Army) and Chris Murray (UCLA). There was also then-sophomore Myles Murao, who has been offered a scholarship by USC, UCLA, Notre Dame and Michigan among others. No wonder JT Daniels doesn’t know what it means to be hit … Continue reading USC Morning Buzz: JT Daniels Had A Lot Of Support Last Season

But if I had to make a decision right now, it’d be easy.” Let me just say I don’t think this is too solid at the … Continue reading Michael Pittman Plans To Return . . . We’ll See

With college football pundits throwing Penn State coach James Franklin’s name around as a USC candidate, here is what Franklin said today: “It’s that time of year where all this stuff happens. It’s the crazy, mad time of year. As you guys know, we’re focused on Maryland, completely 100 percent.
