The Kiffy and Suck years were bleak ... and the Gomer rash that finally went away. Who cares about this year ... the coaches and players are all getting dumped
This isn't your grandfather's USC, nor your Father's. Long list of headwinds for USC. 1) Woke leadership - University President that "gets" neither fundraising nor football. 2) Demographics - migration in - non-football-playing minorities from South America, Middle East, Asia. Migration out - families with kids, conservatives. Low growth after net migration. 3) California High School football participation rates. 4) Cali Crime. 5) Cali Taxes (income, property, sales, estate, vehicle, etc. 6) Cali Defunding law enforcement. 7) Cali dangerous public schools. 8) Cali cost of living. 9) Athletic Department increasingly adept at degrading the gameday experience. 10 ) Add yours below.
This post by Hard Way is so full of crap. I love how some commenters blame everything on "Woke" this and that, simplemindedly regurgitating what they hear in their silos/hugbox. Then he talks out of his ass about "demographics" and, way out of left field, "Cali defunding cops." This dude is mixed up and all over the place with inane conservative arguments.
Definitely the worst. From football to academics. sc is nothing but one scandal after another and one bad coaching hire after another. If they want someone really good they better back up the Brinks truck because that's what it's gonna take to get him. Never seen a school go out of its way to ruin the one thing that put it on the map.
The woke nonsense needs to go and throw away Frau Folt with it
@firenze5 and there you are..like clockwork. Anytime I have anything crirical to say about the embarrasment of a school you atteneded, youre right there to defend the indefensible.
Silly comment. Despite the naysayers USC football will be fine. If you assess the last decade in view of the NCAA and the Pac 12’s war against USC we survived pretty well. Believers me the power five schools and the Pac 12 thought we would be down for 20 years and they sure as hell never thought we would be competitive as fast as we were. So personally I say screw the USC critics . They are who they are.
The million dollar question: will it get worse in the upcoming years? The way things have gone thus far, I can see it going south and taking another bend.
I don't know about bottom of the barrel, there are some really shitty things associated with USC football.

so there is hope now
It can all be fixed with one good hire.
