USC Sunday Buzz: Time To Step In With A Reasonable Commitment

Two weeks ago, Jen Cohen bragged that athletic dept. revenue at USC is up 60 percent the past three years and donors have increased the department’s financial reserves by more than 700 percent since she took over as athletic director. So where is the commitment to USC baseball?
