Mike Bohn did a hometown interview and talked about how USC legends talked about te importanceo of competing in practice. “When you talk to Ronnie Lott and you talk to Marcus Allen here (at USC), they talk about how on different sides of the ball they were constantly challenging each other, and it raised both of their games.

Clay Helton is supposed to be a nice guy/poor coach. But not everyone agrees with the nice guy part. Someone who worked with Helton for several years in Heritage Hall saw him at a USC basketball game. They said hello, because it seemed like the right thing to do. “I don’t remember you,” Helton said.

He’s an insurance policy for USC given the injury history of its … Continue reading USC Lands Grad Transfer QB

USC defensive coordinator Todd Orlando has been highly praised since he was hired but one of his former players is not thrilled with his schemes. Defensive lineman Malcolm Roach said the Longhorns’ 3-3-5 formation under Orlando last season limited the linemen because it focused on blitzes from the linebackers and safeties. Roach was happy Texas is switching to a 4-3 next season. “I would have … Continue reading Former Texas Player Criticizes Todd Orlando
