Winners Of The Week
Despite all the bad news around USC, there are a few winners this week:
Pat Haden -- Rides in on a white horse and fills the small shoes of Mike Garrett.
James Grant -- University spokesperson is upfront in conversations and has a sense of humor, two rare traits in the PR business.
Brandon Carswell -- Will get a fresh start at Cincinnati, which he probably deserves.
Max Nikias -- New USC president looks like a visionary compared to Steven Sample with one move.
And here's a loser:
Pete Carroll -- Wrongly claims only one compliance person worked when Reggie Bush played football and tried to reduce Bush's role in HBO interview. Appeared tin-eared by going on book tour during sanctions and tried to resist questions about it with some members of the media.



how about Glen Stanley, who can't get out of Fig Tech fast enough. Or datrout, who's still so sour about being wrong on Baxter he can't sleep at night?
Biggest Loser: SC fans wanting Inside information still stuck with Scott Wolf
Well....well...what can you say?
Our hero Scott Wolf is obviously not going to change no matter how much criticism is rained on him
Changing him would be like trying to get the ucla posters to write as if their mamas were looking over their shoulder.
Ain't gonna happen
But look at it this way. There is no Hell. Can you imagine the Great Spirit burning people. If that were the case then I want no part of God. But Hell is what people create for themselves while on earth. And I ask you, would you want to be in ol' Scott's skin?
to restore a program's credibility than to bring in an Educated Blond Hair Blue Eyed former Rose Bowl winning Alumni Quarterback with unquestionable integrity.....Keep up the good job Rick Neuheisel :-)
Travon Patterson? Josh Shirley?
"unquestionable integrity"...LOL.
I will give him a pass at Washington since I think he got a raw deal, but what about Colorado?
I do think Carroll's book release and tour couldn't have come at a worst time. It would have been interesting if Pete was still at USC. Would this have reinvigorated him or would he have spiraled down?
Let's revisit this list of "winners" in a year. Let's see if Scott is waxing poetic over these guys or making the catty remarks of a scorned lover by then. Max Nikias' tenure at USC? Looking like a repeat of Lawrence Summers at Harvard.
Wolf you continue to be a huge embarassment. Please vacate the position and turn it over to someone with objectivity. Pete stuck it up your ass for good reason - you and your position are essentially inconsequential. Why would he give time or consideration to a fourth rate reporter for a third rate paper? You don't get it, you are meaningless!! Do you think Pat Haden or Lane KIffen think differently? Please go away before you continue to make a jackass of yourself and the school you went to.
"Educated Blond Hair Blue Eyed former Rose Bowl winning Alumni Quarterback with unquestionable integrity"
Jerramy Stevens' rape victim would disagree.
Trojan 70....Pete is the embarrassment but too many fans like you are on your knees and aren't objective enough to see what he did to the program and the university...
Way to keep it classy TROGANS....Go ahead STABBERS...try and keep Glen Stanley even though he's not the least bit interested in remaining at the South Sentral cess pool...I know you're gonna do EVERYTHING (new cars, loans, etc.) to try and convince him to stay...because you want and need him...UNTIL you finally realize it's best to cut him loose...then you can tell EVERYONE that he's dog meat, couldn't compete, and you NEVER wanted him anyways...Typical TROGAN CRAP...Trogan for life?...or for the 1st month of Class....whatever occurs first!
Go ahead mamma's boy, NOB's (you sound a lot like LUMPY in Leave it to Beaver)...your mommy really does believe you're god's gift...Loser garrett Backer, Loser Carroll Backer, Loser Pink backer, loser Sample backer, Loser O.J. backer, Loser reggie backer, Beginning to see a pattern here?
wolf is too modest to also mention another big winner: Wolf!!
the nattering nabobs on this site are too negative to give wolf his appropriates for calling out Cheatey as a phony long before anyone!
wolf was skeptical of Floyd, did not supplicate to Garrett and is keeping Kiff on a short leash by calling him out on his Baby QB silliness.
wolf, there is no denying you have raised your game to a whole new level these past few years!! well done!!!
when i say scott, you say wolf!!!
SCOTT...WOLF!!!!
AUUUUUUUU-WOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO!!!!
Awwww, ThaiMex needs a hug.
ThaiMex lecturing SC on "class" would be like me trying to teach someone arabic.
And Bucket has his usual tongue-in-cheek (except when discussing me, and then his tongue is sticking out) fluff piece about how great Wolf is. This guy is so amusing, and if you don't believe me just ask him yourself.
Now that they know the consequences they potentially face.....it's an all out unified media attack on Agents to deflect and minimize the school's and coach's responsibility & liability. Typical SEC.
Also, a Television Bowl Ban was discussed for USC, then rejected "after consultation with our TV partners"...ESPN/ABC/FSN were winners in prior weeks, profiting mightly thanks in no small part to Reggie Bush's nationwide popularity.
What a FRAUD..........
According to sources, even after the Chapter 11 re-org, the Daily News is one of the only papers in LANG chain that is still losing money and it means Wolf will likely soon be gone. Cannot imagine any other industry hiring this embittered, puerile blockhead.
I can't wait for him to get hired just to tick off Free Thinker
I guess all you clowns that hate MG now think Jerry Buss fool? Read the Times, Buss is a winner and has it spot on. One champion knows another.
NOBS - Most of the clowns on this blog don't read beyond the DN blog. Remember, they appear to be either remedial JC students or klingons with an affinity for UCLA, neither formally associated with nor graduated from that school.
Rewind - The loser in this entire fiasco is Lamar Griffin - step dad to Reggie. He is the toilet scum (probably was unemployed and lloking for an easy touch) who thought he could scam his step kid with a bunch of low life thugs. He did. Where is he in this whole thing? Living the good life in San Diego? PC is supposed to know Lamar is a low life like Fred Sanford? He is coaching a team, not running around San Diego looking for some piece of crap like Lamar. PC ain't perfect but this whole thing is on Bush and his family. Look at what is going on now in the SEC, Sabin, Meyer, Spurrier are they keeping track of every kid going to parties and taking cash?
some things never change:
-Slow-thinker continues to bash poor wolfie (but hangs on wolfman's every post!)
-the Paralegal's fixation on ChuckerBucker continues (even as he scolds his minions for "engaging UCLA trolls!)
-and wolfman continues to amaze with precise reportage, unsurpassed wit and the sugary sweeeeeeeeetest scooops on the internet!!
AUUUUUUUUUU-WOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO!!!!!
If you want to see a real scoop, then read the brilliantly written story on Pat Haden by David Wharton --a USC alum-- in the L.A. Times. That, gentleman, is journalism and access! Walking around with and getting one-on-one face time with the new AD.
Sh**Bucket - Don't forget I still own you. Love, your Daddy!
