Two sources tell me Clay Helton’s informed coaches they will not be back next season including Justin Wilcox. Helton is expected to retain offensive assistants Tee Martin and Marques Tuiasosopo. USC has not announced anything today.
UPDATED: Defensive line coach Chris Wilson and secondary coach Keith Heyward are also not expected to be back next season. Offensive line coach Bob Connelly will also not return.
Helton is lucky HE is coming back next season, hehe.
hehe ?
From a Man I suppose ??
I believe that “Badminton” is better for…, Rey ???
MoveOn
This is good, very good.
Guess most of the posters are happy about this news, if Wolfie’s “sources” are truly in-the-know.
Now, the question is if fired assistants will try very hard in December to coach up the Trojans because they’d better be ready for the Badgers.
His sources are tweets from Adam Maya and Gerard Martinez.
They are good sources.
Plus we’re moving closer to the end of the recruiting period.
If only Helton could also fire Wolfy as well.
Gotta get a new avatar now
I’m sure Scottie will provide daily updates on Wilcox.
LOL, yeah
just as we are sure that Helen will never show up after a loss.
YES !!!
“Christmas” came early !
So…
Go-Get [CLANCY PENDERGAST] AND BRING HIM BACK NOW !!!!
Clay & Clancy, it’s better than Frying !
C-[Offense] & C-[Defense] will turn everything around, and QUICK !!
Can’t wait for 2016…
Fight-t-f-On
Word up Richard!!!
uhh just wondering I assume this is standard practice to allow said coaches a chance to et a job elsewhere? Asking because the bowl game is still 3+ weeks away then again sooner Wilcox is gone the better for everyone even him if only to get him to realize what he just lost and why
Great news, o-line played horrible on pass protection last night
Yessssss!!!!!! Merry Christmas everybody!!!!!
This shouldn’t be a surprise to anybody. I thought Helton may wait till after the bowl game, but I guess this allows him to start looking for replacements.
So much for your Machiavellian theory of keeping all the coaching staff until LOI day.
Ladies and Gentleman Helen has decided to grace SW’s blog with her characteristic optimistic opinions and uncanny prognostications.
So, Helen has pointed out the obvious: because Helton has fired most of the toejam coaches, Helton will proceed to hire new coaches. Brillant.
Helen if drafted, will you serve?
Manny, you think you’re pretty funny?
Wolf’s two sources: LA Times and ESPN.
If you know that those are the sources – where?
Trojans get exponentially better sans Connelly and the 3 Def. Coaches.. Fight On!
Ah yes, KU prosecutes the innocent and promotes the guilty.
Tee Martin had to be Helton’s first priority before someone else came and swooped him up. Tui is an up and coming football mind. I said weeks ago that those two would be the only head coaches kept by the next head coach. Martin was named the best recruitier in college football in August while continuing to coach up USC’s wide receivers and Tuiasosopo STOLE away Bryce Dixon from UCLA and STOLE away Tyler Petite from Duke, now we just need to involve TE’s more. Helton wasn’t my choice for our coach, but he’s addressing the weaknesses of the team and that’s a positive. WE NEED EVERYTHING.. OL/DL coaches for sure, but we need a really good DB’s coach. Imagine how good our Adoree, Iman, Tell, etc, would benefit from a good coaching in the secondary since they’ve been playing more athleticism while not much technique……..and I’m sorry, but what is with Chris Hawkins? He’s not a USC SAFETY!
Clay, just two small requests….hire a special teams coach and please use one scholarship on a kicker!
Used a scholarship on kickers. Alvarado and Heidari were both scholie kickers. How did that work out?
Great moves!! Maybe they should “fire” some of those players instead…especially after last night. “Fight On”? Please. Stanford owns this pathetic team. Keep clinging to your victories of 60 years ago, troy boys.
I can take your silly childish comments you’ve put out, but can you please take down that picture of your lover
Weak. No wonder you got your arises kicked. Pathetic team…
Chuck I know it’s you
Everybody does. The joker’s also known as Manny. LOL!!! BTW, Sam, our fantasy hire of Gruden or Harbaugh didn’t happen, obviously. And yes, I’m still not convinced on Helton’s long term performance as head coach. But since he isn’t going anywhere for at least the next 2-3 years, all I can do is hope for the best and root for him. Do you feel the same way about the situation?
I here Haden got the ok from Nikias about Helton and wrapped it up. That is the type of crap that needs to pull Haden out of Heritage Hall. I’m gonna pull for Helton, but I think Haden’s off his rocker. There’s something that had to transpire behind the scenes. All the USC “insiders” had word it was gonna be the this NFL guy and the deal was done. I think Haden ruined the deal somehow. That’s what my gut tells me.
Sam, all I can say is that I hope we don’t go through another several years of mediocrity with Helton. On the bright side, he’s at least sober, and he seems very strongly motivated to get the job done, so let’s hope for the best for now.
I can’t lie. I didn’t want Helton. But I do like him and I’ll be pulling for him and the team as always
Kiss me….
How many handles are you using Buckethole? the little gutties get steamrolled by the Trojans and now you jump on the Stanford bandwagon for a couple of days. You continue to demonstrate what a useless, empty, callow existence you have as a human being. Lord, it must suck to be you. ROTFLMAO!!
#alifewasted
Stanford > you, your family, and your shadow and USCK
Classic Sweeeeet Scooooop by the wolfman!!
#InAwe
If I were clay Helton i would not bring Ed Orgeron back. There was just too much drama, when he left USC 2 years ago. And I totally think Orgeron wants helton’s job. If I were Helton I would not trust Orgeron, to have his best interests in mind. Sean Payton didn’t trust Ed Orgeron. Ed Orgeron is a snake oil salesman, in my opinion!
Didn’t Clancy already lose to UCLA in CMora 1st year??
#Historyrepeatsitself
I like what I’m reading here so far. It makes me feel Helton realizes he needs a better coaching staff to win championships. Who he brings in as new coaching staff & particularly a DC, will tell a lot about who he really is as a football coach.
Justin Wilcox was a bum fraud, who was hired by a bum fraud.
He might as well be playing in Australia because I don’t see him coming back any time soon. I haven’t heard anything on him in months.
