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.

They probably always planned to include Belasco but it’s convenient now that Carroll is coaching the Raiders. Is he going to actually show up for classes or do Zoom from Las … Continue reading USC Notes: Class Change-Up
Penn State paying Ohio State defensive coordinator Jim Knowles more than $3 million to be its defensive coordinator is a reminder that Penn State and Ohio State are both projected as top 5 teams for next season. Maybe top 3 to some polls. And guess who doesn’t play either team: Lincoln Riley and USC. Talk about a schedule break. UCLA has to play both but … Continue reading Morning Buzz: USC Catches Big Break
