New Look
Members of the USC scout team wore powder blue and yellow jerseys today at practice.
``It's a motivator to not be on the (scout) team,'' USC coach Lane Kiffin said.
Frankly, this is something Pete Carroll never would allow because he did not like the idea of placing an opponent above all others. You might want to win that rivalry game more than all the others but you waited until that week to worry about it. That kept his teams from being too excited for a single game.
But on a lot of the little things, Kiffin wants change for the sake of change. Morning practices, black socks, proposed alternate uniform . . .
Every week brings another example as to why Coach Sunshine is not mature enough to lead men of any age.
Listen to the "Jew Hater" talking about maturity.
What a dooosh.
Wolf is just pointing out the obvious, many of our "traditions" are just phony bologna and are in the past. We need to join the 21st Century.
How dare he try his own stuff. Seriously, how did Wolf get this job?
The Donkey is witholding all comments on Coach K's changes until the season has progressed a few games.
If Coach K's changes bring about a motivated and hard fighting trojan team, then he can make them wear pink ribbons on their hair and The Donkey would not care.
LOL...I don't like the move because its un-needed locker room material for the gutties. I think its a pretty big slap in their face to learn USC players, coaches and fans think their colors are so feminine they're now being used as an embarrasment-style of motivation. Notice the coaches didn't use gold helmets or green jerseys - that would not be embarrasing - and thus not motivating enough.
Yikes!
Frankly, don't care for all the coverage on black socks, alternate unis, and that other crap. But making scout team wear UCLA colors is ingeniusable (not a real word, I know)! Two things--1) I love anything that intensifies a rivalry, 2) do you think Slick Rick would do something like that? Think about it--if you are on UCLA's scout team, you have to wear cardinal and gold. Do you think the UCLA players would be insulted? Do you think the Pittsburgh Pirates would "punish" their crappy hitters by wearing New York Yankees jerseys during batting practice? No but I could see the late George Steinbrenner making a wasteful acquisition wear the "P"
Nice Lane. How bored and unmotivated is sc that they need to do this? Whats next, will Lane have a player fake a suicide? ..... Oh wait, that stunt is old now at Figueroa Comm. College
Dude everyone get off Lanes ass. This is a good motivational tool. Yes carroll did try and preach that one opponent is not any different than the others, but the facts are that ucla and notre dame are more important and the players know that. They aren't dumb. So putting them in those colors will make them want to get out of those jerseys. Or on the other hand putting our scout team in those colors also will make those players realize they could be starting in those colors if they went to the other school across town.
In other news, the entire scout team received citations for illegally parking in handicapped parking spots.
Hey Sam Gilbert, I hear you're giving free BJ's, does ThaiMex aka SlopeSpick know about this?
Could someone please jet this idiot "jew hater" removed from this board? BJs, racial epithets? How old are you?
Tyler, you'd best watch out. GoGo the Jew Hater is the pride of the Tea Party, and he will no doubt be appointed Secretary of Muslim Containment by President Rick Perry.
And BruinRob's fake Sam Gilbert is back posting just in time for the season to start...
Sam, you're wrong: "doosh" is spelled "douche" Otherwise completely agree.
Wouldn't having to wear UGLA jerseys be a disincentive to be on the scout team? Failure might be catching!
The scout team will go 4-8 this year
