The South Bay Athletic Club met today and among the things happened was a eulogy to John Robinson delivered by John Mazur, who was the starting QB in 1981. You can watch the game in today’s notes column. It doesn’t look like USC even had a Homecoming rally this week. That would have been inconceivable back in the day. Remember in 1950, Mickey Rooney hosted … Continue reading The USC Friday Column Supplement
With Homecoming this Saturday, can anyone tell me what Lincoln Riley did to interact with alumni this week? It used to be a tradition for the football coach to attend the Homecoming rally. USC finished 18th (last place) at the recent Big Ten women’s cross country championships. I’ll bet you didn’t hear about that. After years of finishing last at the Pac-12 championships, the Trojans … Continue reading If It’s Friday, It’s Time For A USC Notes Column
Shamar Arnoux, a four-star cornerback from Carrollton, Ga., flipped his commitment from USC to Auburn. This is no surprise since he is a high school teammate of quarterback JuJu Lewis.

Now we have Homecoming with Throwback jerseys and a new QB but little juice because Riley … Continue reading USC Morning Buzz: This Was Supposed To Be Week With Joy
Four-star defensive end Hayden Lowe of Oaks Christian High School flipped his commitment today from USC to Miami. Here is the good part: Lincoln Riley went to the Oaks Christian game on Friday night. Guess he made a great impression. I’m old enough to remember when USC fans were thrilled about the defensive line class and ready to coordinate assistant Eric Henderson. USC is now … Continue reading Lincoln Riley Loses Another Recruit
Some Big Ten teams are more equal than others. For example, Ohio State and Michigan will only play night games the final three weeks of the season, if they agree, according to the New York Post. In a peculiar arrangement, both Ohio State and Michigan have stipulations in their TV deals with Fox, CBS and NBC that they cannot be assigned to play at night … Continue reading USC Doesn’t Wield Power Of Michigan/Ohio State
