UCLA coach Mick Cronin, the angry gnome, has made two videos this week for students about attending tonight’s game at the Galen Center. Eric Musselman? Crickets. It’s a shame that Musselman, who works harder than any coach trying to drum up interest in the program, has gone MIA this week. It gives the impression, rightly or wrongly, that he has given up. Maybe he is … Continue reading USC Saturday Buzz: Where Is Eric Musselman?
Where would we be without breathless spring reports that wide receiver Trent Mosley is really good? Who knew? It’s similar to when the Penn State fan bought the ticket to run out on the field before the USC game. These fans are wired in 24/7.

Let’s say the team took a week off (at a mimimum). Spring practice started March 3. He really had less than eight weeks for winter workouts. UCLA starts spring practice April 2. That provides … Continue reading USC Notes: Early Spring Means Short Winter
USC has opened spring practice with a ton of players thanks to 32 incoming freshmen players already enrolled. “We got talent, now we got to build a team,” Lincoln Riley said. Isn’t that something that could be said for several years? Is USC better at QB than in the past? Or wide receiver? What about linebacker, defensive line and the secondary?
