Linebacker Kyngstonn Viliamu-Asa of St. John Bosco committed to Notre Dame today. USC and Ohio State were his other finalists. He is rated the No. 3 inside linebacker in the nation. What it means is USC will probably go for another linebacker in the transfer portal next year. Maybe the interesting thing is Mater Dei and St. John Bosco players are not flocking to USC. … Continue reading Kyngstonn Viliamu-Asa Commits To Notre Dame
USC will have two players wear the same jersey number for every available number between 0-20 this season. The only numbers not worn are the retired Heisman Trophy winners but I wouldn’t say they are unavailable because USC is willing to unretire them at any moment (see Jordan Addison, Darnell Bing).

Here’s a third picture of the dog that invaded the USC-UCLA game in 1963. USC’s Bill Morris and UCLA’s Jack Hirsch look on in this photo. And there is a KNX radio banner courtside.

But how easily swayed are you to come to this conclusion … Continue reading The Worst Takes At Pac-12 Media Don’t Always Come From Coaches
Does it matter that USC lists Raleek Brown as a wide receiver on its roster? He played slot back in the spring but Lincoln Riley said the reason he didn’t spend any time at running back was because of a soft-tissue injury. It may just be Riley will play Brown at both spots but primarily the slot. But let’s remember Brown was a five-star prospect … Continue reading USC Saturday Buzz: A Move For The Good Of Offense?
A memorial service for running back C.R. Roberts will be held at USC’s Tutor Campus Center (TCC 450) on Saturday, August 4th at 10 a.m. A reception will be held at 11:30 a.m. The USC-Oregon game at Autzen Stadium on Nov. 11 is sold out. Pac-12 commissioner George Kliavkoff didn’t say anything newsworthy at media day. But he did repeat the emerging spin that new … Continue reading Pac-12 Media Day/Friday Column Supplement
