Reminder: UCLA-USC have combined for 0 playoff appearances

Embarrassing. We have to do better, guys. Do we need better players, better stadiums, better coaches? Let’s brainstorm. How does the transfer portal factor in? And how can we improve the officiating? It is a hot topic and now is the time to fix it.

Is fan apathy a problem? SUC fans are happy with the loss since it was a road game. What ideas do you have about the refs? A better vetting proces? Overhaul the training program?

Why not hire a headhunting firm and get the top 5 refs from the other 4 power 5 conferences? Make them offers they can’t refuse.

Considering the la schools are foot out the door I doubt there’s much that interests them in being part of any solutions.

and I’m not sure the pac wants good refs. They prefer to have fun and entertaining games like this. I bet those clowns last night all got 98% graded from the conference for helping ratings.

The most immediate remedy is coaching. Now is not the time to be a nice guy. The ADs have to take a hard look at the HCs and DCs. Are they playoff caliber? And do they have the game management skills to win in the playoffs against the best coaches in the country? Get rid of any weak links and upgrade.
