USC football is what put USC on the map. That is a fact. Not it's law school. Not it's dental school. Not it's location. FOOTBALL. FACT.
USC football has a STANDARD. If you are a BORN LOSER and that standard is too high for for you, you probably should have gone somewhere else, or followed a different team. Does the 909 have a team?
Will USC football always meet that standard? Of course not.
What is acceptable is USC building toward competing and eventually winning the next national championship.
Was 2001 acceptable to SC fans? Yes. Hackett had done so much damage that Pete Carroll ( who the queen of the brain dead rah rah huggies, lady of the fake lake, fake harbor, fake local, FAKE TROJAN, fake everything led a fax machine effort to stop his hire) had to clean up . One of Pete's favorite expressions. As I posted ( only me ) that time Carroll was a good hire but also had to adjust to the college game. During that season USC had several close road losses. Most notably washington and oregon . USC was in every game. No blow out Hugs style losses. His only major mistake that season was letting the kids keep the travel money and drive themselves to Vegas. SC wound up/ 6 and 6 mostly do to lack of talent.
In 2002 it was obvious that USC was building toward competing for a national title. Kids weren't recruited as much as they were begging to come to SC after that season.
Then in 2003 SC won the damn thing. Not just go to the game which is enough for FAKE WEAK TIT TROJANS , actually be crowned champion.
I have posted my doubts about Riley. Wasn't my choice. Neither was he yours. And I remain concerned about his rep for running a soft program that doesn't play any defense. So I have posted I don't thing he wins the natty at SC. Would love to be wrong. Does he have a learning curve? Would have felt better if he had gotten a better D coordinator. What Riley proved at Oklahoma is that he is bupkis for 3 when he simply tried to outscore the other team. Has he learned anything from this remains to be seen. Cautiously optimistic.
The good news for REAL Trojans, is the portal. It might not take three seasons to clean up FAT ASS Hug's mess. But it is going to take a while. Pete ran off the lazy kids. Riley has to do the same. As long as Caleb stays upright , USC should NOT get blown out this season. With a soft schedule I can see 8 or 9 wins. And yes that is acceptable.
As I posted football put USC on the map. Going to score a lot of points and give up a lot of points this year. Should be fun to watch, and how long has that been since USC football was that? sc
Hate to differ but for at least the first half of the 20th century USC was probably more well known for track and field than it was for football - even though USC had the great Thundering Herd teams of the early 1930's. The fact is the USC track team never lost a duel track meet until 1963 when Oregon beat them in a very close track meet. The Trojan track team won multiple national titles and placed several athletes on the Olympic track teams. Most became medal winners.
Apparently trashing the new coach before his first press conference is what real Trojans do. Hahahahaha
This thread is hilarious. Never gets old bustin' on Sanka. He just gives us too much material to work with.

Another day. Another thread about me. This one a Tranny thread. Real football news out there and who is the favorite topic on the board? Moi.
FREE RENT.
didnt read all the posts nor all of yours. I might read it later. Might now. Love that you care.
Read Fresno. Tranny tennis. And all the “I didn’t attend but my friend did so I’m really a trojan” USC apologists.
hey call yourselves Trojans. If we’ve learned anything it’s that UsC worships money so if you wave two fingers in the air. Buy a tinder or a ticket you can identify anyway you want. Call yourself anything you want. Pretend to be anything you want. and USC is glad to participate in your charade. Gosh. What and who does. That sound like?
I think you have way to much time on your hands. LOL
What is a real Trojan? Most people I know that root for USC went elsewhere, but they still donate and buy every item of Trojan clothing ever made, and have custom license plates about USC, and all the rest of that kind of stuff. Are they less of a Trojan than someone who went to USC but does nothing in terms of supporting the football team?
I thought4 the DC from MSU had a good record? If LR turns the D over to him we gcould be decent on defense. Of course we need help from the portal.
Didn't the punter make an spontaneous decision on the field? A long time ago, but I can still see that guy running for day light like molasses on a cold day, could call just the wrong guy to execute it. JMHO
WRONG about 2001!!! Whoever called the fake punt at ND made a mistake, so that is either 2 or 1 1/2 for Pete. Everything else is spot on.
