Justin Wilcox hired former Oregon assistant Steve Greatwood as offensive line coach at Cal. Greatwood was offensive line coach at USC under Paul Hackett, but don’t hold that against him.
Joe Barry, who left USC after the 2011 season because he was frustrated working with Monte Kiffin, was hired by the Rams as assistant head coach and linebackers coach. He was the Washington Redskins defensive coordinator last season, where there was some controvesy over whether Su’a Cravens should play linebacker or safety. Barry played Cravens at linebacker but Cravens is expected to play safety next year.
Not a word from the blogger on the official visits this weekend … guess he’s waiting to hear from Rivals and Scout before he posts..
Don’t think he’s in the loop in that regard.
Does the bbald one even go on campus? Did we know about Joe Barry a few days ago? I swear, since HRC lost this blog just gets worse and worse.
Be serious. The USC guys who keep up with recruiting seriously will let us all know here when there is something worth saying.
Godfrey is a great pick up.. Very athletic and high ftbl IQ.
Re Godfrey – not a lot of great offers…Wonder why?
Do you predict any other oral commitment announcements today or tomorrow?
Injured his senior year!
No other commits from this weekend?
Yes.. There should one or possibly two between today and tomorrow.. We have our DT in the fold..was told not to say much more.
OG Jalen McKenzie (son of Reggie) will be the next commit. IMO.
THX!
I think he was injured his junior season also which is why he is still a 3-Star.
Also, Our safety Commit CJ Miller from Georgia just became a 4 star from ESPN.
That doesn’t explain why USC and Cal are the only Big-5 offers (espn). Sounds like a big gamble with only seven schollies left, or Cal lost interest, or disappointing closing group, etc. Hope he’s a real sleeper.
Considering we are not coaches, I played ftball til 17 and baseball til 24.. Coaches have gut instincts on recruits.. Sark liked Darnold .. A 3star.
I go more with “offers” over “stars”, but have nothing against a three-star recruit. Darnold had a much better resume of offers than Godfrey. But Darnold was a four-star recruit per Rivals, 247, and Scout. Like I said before, hope the kid is a real sleeper/keeper.
This is unique to USC? To college football? To sports in general? In any profession it doesn’t take a but a year or two when suddenly everyone knows everyone else…the old 5 degrees of separation reality.
Anyone hear anything about Adoree?
Not yet….and there’s still hope…BUT….I wasn’t thrilled to read that he’d said “people will still love me if I leave…”
It’s quiet…too quiet!
That got you worried too?
He’s as good as gone. Would’ve loved him back, but let’s be a little realistic – all it takes is one injury. Fight On Adoree & kill it in the pros!!!
Godfrey just committed!!!!!!!
He committed last night.. Official announcement today!
Don’t you think Adoree Gaines a lot of strength/weight if he stays a year and does the football thing in the weight room vs his track training and diet?
Its his defensive skills that need some work… Offensively he’s a 10..
Agree, just seems a little light in the *ss.
OMG. The bbald one is going to flip if he is just a 3 star. That is on 247. What is he on Scout?
3 all the way around. But he’s 6-2 185 and missed his junior season so there’s that to take into consideration.
True, so we got a steal. I like corners that are that tall, takes away the alley oop.
I would say the coaches believe he’s a steal. I like the the taller corners also.
Adore Jackson will announce his intensions tomorrow at some point…He is leaning our way! ✌
Thanks, DMH63!
So who’s going to wipe the egg off JuJu’s face if Adoree returns? Remember JuJu said he was coming back if Adoree does.
If they can replace Adoree on defense and let him play offense it would help his pro chances and would be fun with him here for the NC run. Darnold to Jackson for six!!!
This could be like with Trump, we would get tired of winning so much.
I think he he needs to stay on defense but letting Jack Jones play more snaps would help smooth the transition for Adoree playing more offense. I think we’ll be fine without Juju but Adoree will be that big play guy on offense.
Like Jack said, he would be great on offense in the nfl, better than defense. One thing I always notice in the nfl, everyone knows how to tackle well.
But as long as we have him we need him to continue to play good defense for us at corner. I’m sure Helton will find plenty of opportunities for him on offense.
Lol.. No idea!
The same person who wiped the egg off your face when you said Bryce Dixon was returning to the team?
haha … Ajax would be a complete fool to return. Don’t get your hopes up.
If he does come back, we are all hoping you support his decision
Suckiffin and i seem to always be on different pages.
He is with several of us.
Im not ..he will do well either way.. I watch a lot of football and it would be to his advantage to return and really work on his game.. 3rd round this draft..1st next year…
Remember a couple months ago when the Blogger was saying current USC coaches don’t turn into head coaches like they did in the McKay era? I wonder where the Blogger stands today.
Cal must be committed to losing … Justin Wilcox aka Skinny jeans as your HC , this is like hiring a Kiffy or Snarky.
OH BY THE WAY…….
Note to Sonny Dykes. Never bite the hand that feeds you.
