  1. they should give all that money to the pour so everyone is rich and not just them, smdh!

    • Yeah….sounds like a typical lib-(ard….hey lover of ‘la bruja’ check this verse of scripture from a tome I’m betting you have never opened ready sailor?

    • I do give money to the poor, they are called illegal aliens and my tax dollars pay the liberal diatribe called ugly and bezerkley

  2. There is a lot of trashing of the worth of a 4-year college degree these days. So many smart kids cannot get a good job.

    So when a luckily talented baseball player can make a million or more, I think he should take it. (And they usually do).

  3. The USC baseball program is officially in the dumper. Hope Swann takes care of business and brings in a decent coach after the next season. We don’t need to be great, even remotely close to the days of old, but we could at least be a good, solid team that makes the playoffs for a series or two.

    • “Among those committed include Nick Pratto, a hard-hitting first baseman and left-handed pitcher from Huntington Beach, Nick Allen, a slick-fielding shortstop from San Diego, and Hans Crouse, a hard-throwing right-hander from Dana Point. All of them could go as high as the first round. Most mock drafts project Pratto to fall outside the top-10.”- Joey Kaufmann for the DT

      There goes our top three baseball recruits.

      • Everybody loses their best recruits, not just USC. Yet USC is still bottom rung in southern California, behind UCI, CSF, LBS and ucla.

        Without a new coach and staff, nothing’s gonna change. Get ready for another mediocre year at best. That’s the new standard for USC in baseball.

  4. So we know who we lost. Are the remaining kids on the board all sub-par? What noteworthy recruits signed with USC?
