I almost got fooled yesterday when I saw that USC landed Texas Tech transfer Connor Shouse, who hit .353 with 10 home runs and 66 RBI. Turned out he had committed to South Carolina. USC can’t land a transfer like this, apparently. Where are the power hitters in next year’s lineup, by the way? Continue reading USC Sunday Buzz: A Trojan Legacy Commits
USC is still recruiting former Utah guard Terrence Brown, who averaged 19.9 points last season. Brown is also considering Kansas, Kentucky, Oregon and Mississippi Before the game, a 13-year-old girl was selling the jerseys outside the Coliseum for $2.50 each. Many of the jerseys were bought by USC students and police traced the sales chain to the 13-year-old girl, who was arrested. Police believed others … Continue reading If It’s Friday, It’s Time For A USC Notes Column
OK, here is my analysis of USC schedule: Lincoln Riley has massaged the schedule to his liking: Notre Dame out. San Jose State, Louisiana and Fresno State in. USC should start the season 4-0 before it plays the biggest game of the year vs. Oregon at the Coliseum. If the Trojans win, they will be in an excellent position to make the playoff. If they … Continue reading USC Morning Buzz: Let’s Analyze The Schedule

From CBS Sports: “(Maiava) left something to be desired from a pure arm-strength standpoint. “Somewhat of a mechanical thrower, the ball doesn’t jump out of his hand — especially when surrounded by … Continue reading A Less-Than-Stellar Manning Camp Report
Jayden Maiava is USC’s most important player this season and a Heisman Tropjhy candidate. He is expected to have a big season. But here’s the question: Will he still have games like he did vs. Nebraska, Oregon and TCU? Those were wildly inconsistent performances, to say the least. Does it matter USC lost Makai Lemon and Ja’Kobi Lane or are wide receivers simply a spot … Continue reading USC Morning Buzz: Most Valuable Player Must Also Be Most Consistent
Wide receiver Eli Woodard of Temecula, who was originally committed to USC, committed to Miami today. He also considered Cal and UCLA. He decommitted from USC because he wanted to take visits to other schools, which is against the policy of Chad “Charmin” Bowden. It would have been funny if someone like Luke Wafle had tested this policy and made other visits and then called … Continue reading An Original Commitment Makes Decision
