Sir Lincoln of Riley actually showed up at the USC-Michigan State basketball game yesterday. But before you think he’s turned over a new leaf (he hasn’t) and is open to becoming more involved at USC, Riley was only there because it was Junior Day and the recruits were taken to the game. I’ll have some news in the next day or so on how hostile … Continue reading USC Sunday Buzz: No New Image Here
A USC player tells me that one of his teammates wants to wear No. 55 next season. I’m not mentioning the player because I feel like it’s not even worthy of considering such a request for any player on the current roster.

There are 10 tiers of plans available and the first seven require buying a membership from the Trojan Athletic Fund, which is basically like a personal seat license. One of my friends pays $3,000 a year for their membership. In terms of straight ticket prices, one plan … Continue reading USC Morning Buzz: Tickets Are Cheaper But Games Are Worse
USC has shuffled its coaching staff and — believe it or not — I think it’s for the better. Trovon Reed has been hired to replace Taylor Mays and here’s why I like it: Reed will coach cornerbacks, which is the position he played in college and coached at Central Florida last season. Mays coached safeties. It didn’t really make sense because secondary coach Doug … Continue reading USC Morning Buzz: A Change For The Better
