Time For Some Perspective On USC Recruiting Class
It’s pretty much impossible to get any perspective from the fanboy media regarding USC’s 2026 recruiting class, which is currently ranked No. 1 in the nation. They are too busy acting like cheerleaders and pretending like Lincoln Riley is in complete control of the program. So here’s a good insight from recruiting analyst Andrew Nemec, who has been a long-time Pac-12 area expert. I think … Continue reading Time For Some Perspective On USC Recruiting Class

Remember last year, when the media bought into the propaganda that the football team had gained 1,400 pounds of muscle prior to the season? Did USC look stronger last season? Think back to … Continue reading Lincoln Riley Fires Strength Coach

But in this era of … Continue reading Are Lincoln Riley and USC Players True Trojans?
