Saturday Buzz: USC Gets Creative To Sell Tickets
USC is getting creative in its attempts to spur ticket sales. The 18 tickets for $300 sounds pretty good. Oops, 10 are for basketball! The fact no games are excluded shows there simply is no longer any game on the schedule considered a must-see for the fans. This what happens when people lose interest. But at least it’s a different idea. USC has offered a … Continue reading Saturday Buzz: USC Gets Creative To Sell Tickets
Another USC Tradition Dies
I hear the USC ticket office is getting kicked out of the Student Union building, where it has resided since at least the 1930’s. It’s new location might be off campus. For anyone who attended USC, the ticket office was a Student Union tradition, first on the second floor before moving to the ground floor. And if you go way back, the ticket manager John … Continue reading Another USC Tradition Dies

Mike Bohn Wrote A Tweet!
It’s been almost three months since Mike Bohn composed a tweet. His last one was Dec. 4, when he announced he would retain Clay Helton. I love the video on the hiring of new women’s volleyball coach Brad Keller. The pensive looks on the players. The awkward chairs and table where Keller appears to be signing a contract. You got a couple lackeys hanging around. … Continue reading Mike Bohn Wrote A Tweet!
Graham Harrell Reportedly Candidate At Colorado
USC offensive coordinator Graham Harrell might be a candidate at Colorado, according to the Athletic. Why not? Colorado is desperate for a coach. Apparently they are not hiring Air Force coach Troy Calhoun, who has had three 10-win seasons since 2014. Does Harrell think he is the head-coach-in-waiting at USC since Dave Aranda apparently turned down the title? How much consternation would there be at … Continue reading Graham Harrell Reportedly Candidate At Colorado
If It’s Friday, It’s Time For A USC Notes Column
Clay Helton did not have a press conference on Signing Day earlier this month, the first time USC has skipped one in probably 40-50 years. But we now know Helton underwent three hours of oral surgery that day, according to Dennis Dodd of CBS Sports, who interviewed him that night. With that mind, give Helton credit. He looked pretty chipper on the Pac-12 Network’s Signing … Continue reading If It’s Friday, It’s Time For A USC Notes Column
