OJ is available
September 9th, 2019 at 4:44 PM ^
So is Dave Brandon.
September 9th, 2019 at 8:24 PM ^
So is Urban Meyer....
...so he can hire Urban Meyer to replace Clay Helton.
September 9th, 2019 at 5:42 PM ^
The Juice would be a killer choice
September 9th, 2019 at 6:22 PM ^
He'll fit that job like a hand in glove*.
*Bonus reference to The Smiths.
September 9th, 2019 at 7:46 PM ^
I heard he had interest in the Broncos, but he should take a stab at usc if he's wanted.
September 9th, 2019 at 9:30 PM ^
Probably wish he still had eligibility. The guy can still cut and run
September 9th, 2019 at 4:24 PM ^
Must not have been Urban's first choice.
September 9th, 2019 at 4:25 PM ^
Dang, you!! You beat me to it.
September 9th, 2019 at 4:45 PM ^
Zach Smith
September 9th, 2019 at 4:56 PM ^
Idk man, if Slovis keeps doing what he's doing, he might just fuck around and save Helton's job.
September 9th, 2019 at 6:36 PM ^
Not happening. Helton is gone at end of the year. He is incapable as a head coach of having the type of season he needs to save his job.
September 9th, 2019 at 5:17 PM ^
The dream for board posters here of Harbaugh getting replaced by Urban is still alive!!
September 9th, 2019 at 5:24 PM ^
Don't even.
September 9th, 2019 at 5:26 PM ^
I don't make the rules...
September 9th, 2019 at 5:39 PM ^
I would rather lose football than have Meyer and his questionable ethics-based approach.
September 9th, 2019 at 5:44 PM ^
I would prefer 0-12 than have that sleeze ball Meyer as a coach
September 9th, 2019 at 7:48 PM ^
I'd take him if I he promised that he would be moral and upright here.
September 9th, 2019 at 4:28 PM ^
Well it was fun while it lasted. Hopefully they find somebody worse, I love watching USC crater.
September 9th, 2019 at 4:49 PM ^
I actually don’t mind usc or Clemson or Oklahoma. I would rather see every sec team crater
September 9th, 2019 at 8:28 PM ^
I would rather see Ohio State crater.
September 10th, 2019 at 3:34 AM ^
Id rather see Ohio State in a crater.
September 9th, 2019 at 4:28 PM ^
Not OT. Article written by Ryan Kartje, former Michigan Daily Sports Editor.
September 9th, 2019 at 4:39 PM ^
Dang, how many ex-Daily writers does the LA Times employ?!
September 9th, 2019 at 4:49 PM ^
Not enough.
September 9th, 2019 at 4:30 PM ^
Outside of the good Pete Carroll years, USC has been bad more than they've been good over the last 40 years.
Not sure why the media crams them down our throats. Urban (or any top tier coach) going there is a pipe dream from USC fans.
September 9th, 2019 at 4:32 PM ^
Yeah, it's not like Urban has any interest in good-looking co-eds.
September 9th, 2019 at 4:35 PM ^
He's probably already eyeing which cheerleaders he'd like to sample.
I noticed Fox is having him rub elbows with Reggie Bush and Matt Leinart, in LA.
September 9th, 2019 at 4:49 PM ^
I'm waiting for the day Urban has a minor accident on his motorcycle with a hot young thing sharing the seat. THAT would be hilarious. Or maybe Urban at a dorm party swigging beers.
September 9th, 2019 at 4:45 PM ^
4 losing seasons in the last 40 years. That's 1 more than Michigan.
They are 4-1 against us in the last 40 years. 6-1 if you go back 50.
I fuckin hate USC but get fuckin real man.
September 9th, 2019 at 4:56 PM ^
LOL, you really bend over backwards to shit on Michigan. 40 years, wait 50 years, wait...how about THIS year, how about LAST year, get fucking real man...
September 9th, 2019 at 4:59 PM ^
Shit on Michigan? Fuck u. Never done that in my life and never will. What a stupid fuckin comment. USC has owned us in my lifetime and I'm not cool with that. Seen two of those losses in person.
September 9th, 2019 at 5:39 PM ^
I read that as a comparison, I didn't read any malice in your mentioning of Michigan.
September 9th, 2019 at 5:47 PM ^
those 2 losses you saw in person? I was there too I fucking HATE USC ...
September 9th, 2019 at 6:52 PM ^
They also owned the refs in at least a couple of Rose Bowls I watched.
September 9th, 2019 at 5:25 PM ^
Not sure why the media crams them down our throats.
Do you know who says that exact thing about Michigan? Almost every college football fan outside the B1G. Michigan gets talked up hardcore every single season while going 10-3 and failing to win anything meaningful.
Sure USC has been worse than Michigan lately, but they've also been better in the semi-recent past. They're both big time programs with a ton of history.
September 9th, 2019 at 6:10 PM ^
"Bad" is probably a bit harsh - but certainly not "very good" for most of those 40 years. Most people don't realize that.
Here's a statistic for folks. From 1980 to 2018, outside of the Pete Carroll years, USC has had ONE (ONE!!!) season in which they were Bowl eligible and lost 2 or fewer games.
That season was 1988. 10-2 under Larry Smith. Lost to U-M in the Rose Bowl as Leroy Hoard had a huge game.
2011 was also 10-2 (under Lane Kiffin). But also on probation, so no Bowl game.
(1980, 1989 and 1995 don't count. 2 Losses and a tie - but a tie is "half a win, half a loss" for winning percentage purposes).
September 9th, 2019 at 4:35 PM ^
From expecting to win the Pac-12 to resigning in only three weeks... pretty impressive if you ask me!
September 9th, 2019 at 4:41 PM ^
The PAC 12 is a dumpster fire. USC could still win since they are all awful
September 9th, 2019 at 5:27 PM ^
Uh what?
I would confidently say that Oregon and Utah could probably beat Michigan right now. Hell USC would give us fits judging by their Stanford game.
Washington would be even.
September 9th, 2019 at 5:33 PM ^
Dude, I never mentioned Michigan. I’m just talking about USC and their chances to win the PAC
September 10th, 2019 at 12:14 AM ^
The Pac-12 may not have any top five teams. But it has more talent than you think and tends to be subject to East Coast bias. Oregon and Washington lost close heartbreakers. They’re both quality teams. Utah is very good. Wazoo is always dangerous. And USC and Stanford are both borderline top 25. I’d hazard the league is better, top to bottom, than the ACC and the Big 12.
September 9th, 2019 at 4:47 PM ^
Good for them. He was really bad at his job.
September 9th, 2019 at 6:02 PM ^
And he stole my hat
September 9th, 2019 at 4:49 PM ^
I didn't follow this closely. What were the lowlights of his tenure?
September 9th, 2019 at 4:52 PM ^
For starters, every single decision he made.
September 9th, 2019 at 6:30 PM ^
Accepting the job to start.
September 9th, 2019 at 4:53 PM ^
While the trails and tribulations of the football team must be weighing on him, I am sure that the Admissions scandal, especially the latest news, with all the 'SC assistant coaches is also a big factor and the president no doubt "asked" him to leave so she can clean house and set the tone.
September 9th, 2019 at 8:50 PM ^
He was fired. Resignation in name only. Towards the bottom of the article:
"Folt said that the department’s role and Swann’s handling of the nationwide college admissions scandal “was not a part of the decision for me.”"
The context of that sentence was that the "decision" was to terminate Swann.
I like Lynn Swann as an on air persona. I never understood why he was offered or that he took a job that he had no experience doing. It was doomed from the get go. And my suspicion is that the nefarious things that got USC athletics in trouble this time around pre dated Swann.
