Morning Buzz

Offensive tackle Nico Falah of St. John Bosco is expected to commit to USC today. He is also considering UCLA. So this is perhaps the first real crosstown competition in recruiting after Jim Mora had a chance to get settled in as the Bruins’ coach.
USC has 11 commitments and Falah would be the 12th, which leaves six open spots for Lane Kiffin.

  1. The kid wants to play for a winner, not a perpetual .500 team with a coach who will bolt for UDUB in a heartbeat once Sark gets canned.

  2. Southern Cal gets him today…then signs with UCLA later after his family works on him some more.

  3. why is he expected to pick usc over ucla? maybe a little reporting to go along with the statement might be helpful. his father is a ucla alum.

  4. hmmm the LAT just posted an article this week all but guaran-fing-teeing this kid was a Bruin lock….so either the wolfman scoooops the vaunted LAT award winning staff, or the trOXans lose out on their recruit.

    in other words, it’s a win either way!

  5. thanks for the heads up, Thai, i shouldda never doubted the wolfman’s legendary reportage!!

    but in a match up against the legion of award winning sports writers of the LAT vs the lone wolf, i am ashamed to say i had a moment of doubt. but i’ll take the wolfman against any writer, paper or news organization any day of the week and twice on Sunday!!!

    as for this kid, well Shazaaam’s old man was a trOXan, so i guess as Mutt Romney says: what’s sauce for the goose is sauce for the gander!!

  6. Bucket, you fuckin idiot, why do you keep talking to yourself……sounds like a little backpedaling…take two knees and enjoy your medicine

  7. Hey bucket(fuckin idiot) how’s the newspaper route doing, looks like you should have that money saved up, in no time, for your season tickets

    PS….PLEASE!!!! stay away from the peristyle area…ouch!!!!

  8. Its going to take more than one highly rated O-lineman to give the football ‘ruins any hope in matching SC, as far down in overall talent as they are. Maybe young Falah has figured that out… and the fact UDUB is going to steal Mora away when the time comes and MR. Cheapo in the ‘ruin AD office isn’t going to lower his meal perks to fight UDUB…

  9. Kid’s a Trogan for now. But Wolfie needs to get off the competition thing. Mora has to play games before anyone will believe things can change.

    Besides, the first real head-to-head was McCarthy and we all know who won that one.

  10. haha, indeed it is Trog, I mean Trojanfan. Let’s just hope all of SC’s 5* recruits can tweet the same this year! Ambles ON!

  11. I’ve always found the whole Trogan obsession sort of funny. No one will argue that Ambles hasn’t proved himself to be an idiot on several fronts, but its not like that stopped him from being offered a full scholarship by UCLA. I’m sure you would be tickled pink, had he ended up being a “Brewin”. Perhaps Randal Carroll could have taught him how to tweet out racial epithets at his own coach.

  12. To celebrate this recruiting coo, I am going to wash all the Cadre’s feet tonight at the headquarters! After they turned me out last week, I cant get enough of those He-Men. And I will wear my little Blue and Gold dress they gave me.

    Cadre, I just can’t quit you.

  13. Wow, EvilRobot just came in here and wiped the floor with the haters. Great post!!!
