Morning Buzz: Will USC Be Stronger This Year?
With spring practice starting Tuesday, I’m hearing positive comments from players regarding the new strength coaches. Now I’m always skeptical of praise for USC strength coaches because it tends to rely on athletic dept. spin. But so far the comments from players are more positive compared to the past few years when new strength coaches took over and were lavishly praised by adminstrators and social … Continue reading Morning Buzz: Will USC Be Stronger This Year?

USC Morning Buzz: A Better Version Of Spring Practice
One thing I like about USC spring practice is the Trojans will practice for one month straight and not have any breaks. In recent years, USC would practice for a week or maybe two weeks and then disappear for spring break. Then return for three more weeks. Now it might be possible Lincoln Riley started later simply because of the roster turnover but I still … Continue reading USC Morning Buzz: A Better Version Of Spring Practice

Mike Bohn Named An Athletic Director Of Year
It’s not often you get Carol Folt and Rick Caruso to make official statements together but both praised Mike Bohn today for being named NACDA athletic director of the year. Bohn was actually one of four Football Bowl Subdivision athletic directors of the year and one of 28 overall as the list below shows.

USC Morning Buzz: The Transfer Portal Keeps Churning
I thought USC freshman tailback Brandon Campbell showed flashes of talent in very limited carries last season. So it’s disappointing but understandable that Campbell has entered the transfer portal. Oregon transfer Travis Dye is No. 1. Stanford transfer Austin Jones came to USC to play and improve his NFL draft stock. Darwin Barlow thinks he can start. And incoming freshman Raleek Brown is a five-star, so he’s going … Continue reading USC Morning Buzz: The Transfer Portal Keeps Churning
