The ensuing 7-6 campaign was an indication that I left too early (or a certain quarterback just stayed too long). Congratulations to USC's 2013 student-athlete graduates, and may we all unbiasedly Fight On.</p></p></div> http://www.conquestchronicles.com/2013/5/16/4339066/wheres-matt-waldo-barkley italian_trojan 2013-05-07T23:14:38Z 2013-05-07T23:14:38Z <h3 class="link-title"><a href="http://www.outsports.com/2013/5/7/4307068/sean-mulroy-fabulous-life-openly-gay-college-swimmer-usc-coming-out" rel="nofollow">The Fabulous Life Of An Openly Gay College Swimmer -&nbsp;Outsports</a></h3> <div class="description"><p><p>Great take by USC Swimmer Sean Mulroy</p></p></div> http://www.conquestchronicles.com/2013/5/7/4310258/the-fabulous-life-of-an-openly-gay-college-swimmer-outsports Paragon SC 2013-05-06T23:12:54Z 2013-05-06T23:12:54Z <h2><a href="http://www.conquestchronicles.com/2013/5/6/4306602/top-5-usc-trojans-to-watch-in-2014">Top 5 USC Trojans to Watch in&nbsp;2013</a></h2> <ol> <li class="fs-list1">Nelson Agholor (WR) - Marqise Lee should carry this offense and lead the nation in everything (just like Matt Barkley was at one point SUPPOSED to be selected by the Philadelphia Eagles two days earlier than he was), but the SoCal wide receiver In-N-Out is open 24 hours, and Algohor's versatility will be their Thousand Island dressing.</li> <li class="fs-list2">Demetrius Wright (FS) - From Troy Polamalu to T.J. McDonald, safety has forever been an integral component of USC's defensive capability. Can he (along with former linebacker Dion Bailey) "Wright" last season's sinking ship of smog?</li> <li class="fs-list3">Morgan Breslin (DE/OLB) - If the answer to the aforementioned question is no, then the energy and burst of this potential first-round pass rusher better stab Pac 12 opponents through the centers of their respective fields and back in time to an era when people didn't boo-hoo over commercials.</li> <li class="fs-list4">Silas Redd (RB) - With Curtis McNeal's departure, USC's backfield is out of handcuffs but sentenced to outpatient group therapy, courtesy of co-starters Tre Madden and Justin Davis. Luckily for Redd, he is accustomed to watching his behind...an overdue silver lining or still too soon?</li> <li class="fs-list5">Kevin Graf (OT) and John Martinez (OG) - I'm cheating here, but the offensive line play in 2012 was exactly that - offensive - as they cheated Barkley in his comeback campaign. Both of these guys are slated to upgrade the right side, but will that be enough, or will Lane Kiffin be custom-ordering a new quarterback from Ronaiah Tuiasosopo after Max Wittek has his left shoulder ripped off Week 1 against Hawaii?</li> </ol> http://www.conquestchronicles.com/2013/5/6/4306602/top-5-usc-trojans-to-watch-in-2014 italian_trojan 2013-05-01T15:59:06Z 2013-05-01T15:59:06Z <h3 class="link-title"><a href="http://www.latimes.com/entertainment/music/posts/la-et-ms-nederlander-concerts-usc-galen-center-exclusive-20130424,0,2864946.story" rel="nofollow">Gibson's closure benefits Galen&nbsp;Center.</a></h3> <div class="description"><p><p>The fallout from the closure of the Gibson Amphitheater at Universal is benefiting USC's Galen Center. Nederlander group's intention to book concerts at the Galen certainly starts to add revenue to the center. </p> <p>I went to a tribute for Ella Fitzgerald at Galen perhaps in the year or two after it opened. Surprisingly the venue work really well for concerts.

Enfield may be the ultimate Big Dance Flavor of the Month, riding the first-ever Sweet 16 appearance by a No. 15 seed from the Atlantic Sun Conference to a high-paying job in the Pac-12. Consider: FGCU was clinging to a three-point lead with five minutes left against North Florida in the A-Sun quarterfinals &ndash; if that game gets away, Dunk City is a myth. We never hear of Andy Enfield. So there is a lot to prove for a guy who has been a head coach for all of two years and has one winning season. But what Enfield lacks in track record, he may make up for in the substance he showed during that NCAA run. USC has been a sucker job for years &ndash; everything is in place to succeed, but success rarely follows. It might have the right guy this time. Grade: B. </p></p> </blockquote> <div class="source"><p><a href="http://sports.yahoo.com/news/ncaab--grading-2013-college-basketball-coach-hirings-and-taking-a-look-at-who-s-on-hot-seat-194152276.html" rel="nofollow">Grading 2013 college basketball coach hirings and taking a look at who's on hot seat next season - Yahoo!
