Katz on Mayo
ESPN’s Andy Katz has some interesting thoughts on the O.J. Mayo situation. • How much will it help or hinder the NCAA's investigation that Johnson, a former Mayo associate, talked to ESPN's "Outside the Lines" before the NCAA?When someone goes public, that can have an adverse affect...
The Nagging Question
One thing that really stands out as odd to me in this whole situation is the alleged benefits. It has been reported that Guillory received from BDA some 200k and an SUV while Mayo only received 30k and a flatscreen TV while he rides around campus on his bicycle. If we are to believe Johnson’s...

Leinart's Dad, Bob, made up the difference. He will not miss any...
The Trojans Hunker Down
Today's LA Times has a piece by Bill Plaschke about USC and their image. Outside from the loyal opposition and the general community of USC haters there has been little written by Trojan supporters that SC needs to protect its image. I've never thought that Pete Carroll didn't care about his team's...
The Role of the Agent
