One Less Ritual
One tradition that seems to have disappeared from the Pete Carroll era is that when USC concludes its warmups, it does not go to the band to hear Tribute to Troy. The players simply enter the locker room. Carroll used to insist they stop by the band for road games.



We sure miss PC don't we scotty.
Odd. Seems like we need team spirit more now than ever. Plus kids should see SC as a place to love not just a place to play football. Oh well, maybe they need a dose of realism-- it is really all about the money.
High fiving a band member doesn't equal wins and losses and the band has their own pep rally with the team every week, so who gives a crap.
