USC Morning Buzz: Transfers Don’t Always Get What They Want
When I mentioned USC cornerback Christian Roland-Wallace is moving to nickelback a couple weeks ago, I forgot to throw in one other issue: Does anyone really think Roland-Wallace transferred from Arizona to USC to play nickel back? He came to USC thinking a high-profile program would raise his draft prospects and for the NIL money. He also figured he would start at cornerback since he … Continue reading USC Morning Buzz: Transfers Don’t Always Get What They Want
Duce Robinson Not Drafted . . . Yet
Duce Robinson was not selected in the first 10 rounds of the Major League Baseball Draft. The draft goes 20 rounds so there is plenty of time for Robinson to get drafted. Every pick in Rounds 11-20 comes with a $125,000 slot value, and every dollar in excess of that counts against the bonus pool. But if a team wants Robinson, it will take him. … Continue reading Duce Robinson Not Drafted . . . Yet
An Unimpressed View Of USC Recruiting
USC might have piled up 13 commitments in June but recruiting analyst Mike Farrell said the Trojans’ efforts are “a bit under par.” This will make the fanboy media steam. “USC has done a solid job in 2024, but I’m not as impressed as I should be.

He was also a safety at Auburn and made … Continue reading USC Morning Buzz: Alabama Still Factor In Southern California

It’s The End Of An Era In Los Angeles
It’s the end of a era for the Los Angeles Times, which announced it will no longer have box scores, standings or even game stories in its printed sports section. The sports section is supposedly going to become more a magazine with one story on the cover, that will obviously not be anything that happened the night before. It sounds like this means even a … Continue reading It’s The End Of An Era In Los Angeles
