I used to live in LA, and at one time USC owned that town. They were scary good and could recruit pretty much anybody they wanted. After Carroll left (right ahead of an NCAA colonoscopy), USC has suffered from its arrogance and hubris. It hasn’t done much right since. USC got rid of Ogeron because he sounded like a hillbilly on TV and embarrassed them. I told many of my USC friends USC shot themselves with that one. Helton is a zero, zero enthusiasm, zero imagination, zero recruiting and his teams are boring and not very good. You can be lousy or boring but not both in LA. Amazingly Houston seems to be going exactly in the same direction with Holgerson. Juz sayin…
