Hey Scott, out of curiosity, why does Tom Hoffarth hate Pete Arbogast so much? Pete always seemed like a decent guy to me. Is it because he doesn't take himself as seriously as Tom clearly does?

ARBO DORK is the biggest nerd on the air in America, just a full blown homer who acts like he's 8 years old. Why USC continues to keep this total dweeb is beyond me unless it's because he comes cheap

Sounds like this so called 'journalist' is a little insecure about the fact that another guy can do his job (without getting paid, or assigned, to do it). And do the job just as good or even better than the 'professional'.

What a lame article. It was nothing more than a cynical hit piece. It is even more ridiculous for Scott to link it or say that the article "pulls no punches."

Even if Arbogast reported something inane on his blog, so what? Why draw attention to it, except for an opportunity to blast Arbogast? We won't know if Mayo is going pro - even if it seems a foregone conclusion - until Mayo says so himself. He has to declare by April 27th. He has until June 16th to withdraw, so long as no agent is hired. We'll find out soon enough who stays, or who leaves.

Once again, the RAH RAH dingbats defend this absolute clown, This IDIOT represents USC, he's an alum, he looks like a fool on an almost daily basis. His blog is juvenile, he's juvenile, this is what you want representing your school?

Isn't a fan supposed to be "RAH RAH"? What's the point in being antagonistic towards the organization you claim to support. It doesn't make you more "mature" or "intelligent"; all it does is make you a bit of a d-bag.

I don't mind Arbogast. I don't really read his blog because there are better sources of information, but I identify with his love for USC and passion for our athletic teams.

So, FSC, how do you think a fan should act because you clearly don't think a fan should be passionate about his school.

The RAH RAH fan can't see the problems, they ignore it with " I trust the coaches" Well, Pete has a joke of a staff save for one or two guys. What other coaching staff tapes their fingers? The loss to Stanford was met with " Well, maybe this was good for the team" GOOD FOR THE TEAM?

ARBO is a dope, but I would expect a RAH RAH like yourself to approve of his juvenile act. Tom Kelley was a homer, but he was an adult as well, something ARBO isn't, he's a clown.

RAH RAH on taxi, don't fall off the bandwagon when it all comes to an end, and it will.
