If you are one of the few to attend USC basketball games, you might notice the Song Girls are no longer at the games. I’ve heard chatter among alumni that athletic director Lynn Swann banned the song girls from basketball games after being told some joined “Fire Helton” chants at the Notre Dame game. The Los Angeles Times looked into the matter but did not mention … Continue reading USC Morning Buzz: Worst A.D. In Nation Chronicles
Darwin Barlow, a four-star tailback committed to TCU, is visiting USC this weekend. USC suddenly developed an interest in Barlow after Jordan Wilmore decommitted. So what happens when Barlow asks why the offensive coordinator hasn’t introduced himself? Or asks Clay Helton whether the Trojans will run an Air Raid or spread offense?

He would have to want to coach again. He would need to be paid a lot of money. He would need to want to work for Lynn Swann. And Swann would … Continue reading Urban Meyer To Fox Sports But For How Long?
