Former USC football coach John Robinson turned 88 today. For about two decades at USC, Oregon was considered the cradle of coaches for the Trojans. John McKay and Robinson both played at Oregon.

USC Notes: The Weird, Different Reactions To Similar Cases

When Clay Helton was USC coach, he had an offseason where three players had the same number and I duly made fun of it. Well, Lincoln Riley has THREE players wearing No. 42 for this actual season: Punter Aadyn Sleep-Dalton, linebacker Deuce Palmer and wide receiver Danny Ryan. Why?
