Clay Helton Wants More Resources To Fix Problem He Created
Mike Bohn said he would give Clay Helton more resources and a big sore spot is the recruiting staff is smaller than schools like Alabama or Georgia. It’s fair to point that out.

USC Morning Buzz: Clancy Pendergast On The Clock
From what I’m hearing. Clay Helton’s been ordered to replace Clancy Pendergast as defensive coordinator despite his attempts to save Pendergast. It could happen the day after the Holiday Bowl.
