There’s a lot of speculation that tight end Duce Robinson has committed to USC and he will make his announcement on Thursday at 5:30 PT. Lincoln Riley addressed the tight end depth today. “Right now?

Yes, It Was Harder Than Ever To Get Into USC
Every year it get harder to get into USC. USC’s acceptance rate for the 2022-23 college application year was just 11.5 percent, a 0.5 percent decrease from last year’s rate.

Morning Buzz: USC Should Be Healthier This Week
I’m hearing USC cornerback Christian Roland-Wallace, who has been out since the first practice with a sprained ankle, should be back this week. Arizona got a lot of mileage out of a visit from Pete Carroll on Saturday. But it shouldn’t be all that surprising. Arizona coach Jedd the Fisch tries to model himself after Carroll, except he is basically an empty suit in comparison. … Continue reading Morning Buzz: USC Should Be Healthier This Week
