USC-Notre Dame Rivalry Reveals Something
USC has not beaten Notre Dame since 2016. That’s the kind of thing I think about when looking at the football program today. It’s also what I think about when Mike Bohn or Brandon Sosna try to brag on twitter about football. The Clay Helton era has been a disaster for things like the USC-Notre Dame rivalry. Helton is 1-3 and avoided a loss last … Continue reading USC-Notre Dame Rivalry Reveals Something
Saturday Buzz: Or USC Could Just Join The Big Ten
The great thing about conference realignment is you can write just about anything and it cannot be denied. Here is an Ohio State site (BuckeyeScoop.com) saying that USC, UCLA, Oregon and Colorado want to join the Big Ten. The schedule challenges the four would face would be daunting.

I don’t think Slovis is a slam-dunk NFL star QB and there are a lot of questions to be answered athletically. Not to mention … Continue reading If It’s Friday, It’s Time For A USC Notes Column
USC Selling Recent Graduates Seats At Student-Section Prices
USC announced it will sell tickets “near the student section” to recent graduates from the Class of 2020 and 2021 for the same prices as student-section tickets ($200). If I were a recent graduate, I would like this idea. It also reveals, to be fair, the desperation facing the athletic dept. in generating enthusiasm for a football team that does not excite its fan base, … Continue reading USC Selling Recent Graduates Seats At Student-Section Prices
Tom Barrack Resigns From Board Of Trustees
USC finally released a statement today that Tom Barrack resigned from the Board of Trustees following his arrest/indictment on Tuesday. “Tom Barrack has voluntarily resigned from the USC Board of Trustees effective immediately,” the statement said. Why did he voluntarily resign? USC should have made him resign immediately. Continue reading Tom Barrack Resigns From Board Of Trustees
