A reader wants to know which pressing issue will happen first at USC in the last question of this segment.

Q: It appears to me that the local outlet of the Chicago Tribune has about 4 or 5 of their sportswriters doing, like, triple the work of 6 months ago, while at the same time, hiring some people who may be high school journalism students working free just for the experience for all I know.
What is happening with the sports dept. in the paper you work for, Scott? Thanks for anything you feel comfortable talking about here.

A: Every paper is cutting back these days, just like many other businesses dealing with the recession. These are tough times for everyone, although I can say we have not cut our USC coverage, which everyone realizes is important to our readers.

Q: Have you considered making a section to a ask question to a player similar to the one you have with Pete Carroll?

A: No, I haven't, but it's an excellent idea.

Q: More likely to happen in 2009: Taylor Mays goes on a date with Lauren Conrad, Joe Mcknight goes a game without a fumble, Mark Sanchez goes pro, Ben Malcolmson becomes the writer for Caesar's sf49ersripsit.com, Chad Kreuter gets fired, the new song girls go through a year without scandals, or the Galen center fixes its soft serve?

A: Taylor Mays and Chad Kreuter have a much greater chance of realizing those goals than Joe McKnight or the Galen Center. Somewhere in the middle is the possibility of sf49ersripsit.com becoming a reality.

Dear Daily News Editor:

We Trojans give you permission to cut back on the USC coverage if it means laying off Scott Wolf.

Ignore Brent, he a rose colored rah rah who only wants to read the "good" things about USC sports. Yes Brent, B. Green left because of family problems, not because the coach has a woody for McFumble.

About Inside USC

Scott Wolf has covered USC for the Daily News since 1996. A USC graduate, he covered his first Trojan game in 1984 for the Daily Trojan. Scott is known as the "scourge of the Internet message boards," according to radio host Petros Papadakis. Despite this moniker, there's no truth to the rumor he takes pleasure in antagonizing the "Internet geeks."
