USC OL Coach Tim Drevno To Michigan As Offensive Coordinator

USC offensive coordinator Tim Drevno will apparently join Michigan as offensive coordinator. First reaction? Jim Harbaugh will call plays. Second reaction? Drevno ruffled feathers with a sometimes rough edge but he also dealt with three true freshmen starters on the offensive line.

Now who will Steve Sarkisian hire? Boosters will push for former offensive line coach Tim Davis. But whoever he hires, it cannot be perceived as a weakness. The fans are already frustrated with defensive coordinator Justin Wilcox.

Tim Drevno To Michigan?

USC offensive line coach Tim Drevo could be reunited with Jim Harbaugh at Michigan according to the Sacramento Bee. Is this the staff change you were hoping for? Drevno was not always popular within Heritage Hall but was always wanted back for next season.

Maybe he left San Francisco last year worried he might not have a job if Harbaugh got fired. Last week I asked him about Harbaugh going to Michigan.

“You won’t find a better coach than Jim Harbaugh,” he said. “I learned a lot from him.”

Should USC Make Adoree Jackson Its Awards Candidate Centerpiece

"1227_SPT_LDN_L-USC-NEBRASKA-WL"

Based on his Holiday Bowl (and other parts of the season), should Adoree Jackson be considered USC’s Heisman Trophy candidate? It won’t happen because quarterback Cody Kessler will be considered the top candidate.

But who else can generate the excitement and national buzz that Jackson can by returning kickoffs, catching touchdown passes and intercepting passes next year? His uniqueness makes him the most marketable candidate but I doubt USC will be daring enough to do it.

Two-For-One Deal

USC plays UCLA in women’s basketball at 6 p.m. at the Galen Center followed by USC-Vermont at 8:30 in men’s basketball. Frankly, I’d rather watch the women’s game than a 5-6 Vermont team that Andy Enfield scheduled.

Juju Smith Remains Hungry

"1227_SPT_LDN_L-USC-NEBRASKA-WL"Wide receiver Juju Smith looks poised for a big sophomore season and he said he is motivated because he wanted an even better freshman year.

“I’m still hungry, I’m not happy with the way the season went,” Smith said. “There were certain balls I could have caught but I didn’t. I wanted to catch the pass against Notre Dame they said I didn’t.”
