USC Morning Buzz: Red Flag For Elite Prospect?
USC’s recruiting class can move into the top 10 if it lands cornerback Rodrick Pleasant and tight end Duce Robinson.

Sunday Buzz: It’s The Biggest NFL Day Of Year
I’ll take today over Super Sunday when there are two big games to watch that could go either way. Joe Burrow vs. Patrick Mahomes. Can the Super Bowl top that? Here’s a very important fact for 49ers-Eagles: If San Francisco wins, Brock Purdy will surpass Pat Haden for most career playoff wins by a quarterback selected in the 7th round.
