MATTHEW KREDELL

Matthew Kredell broke into the Daily News in 1998, working part time at the paper while going to USC. The basketball team’s Elite Eight run in 2000-01 was USC’s athletic highlight in his time at the school, when the football team was stuck in the Paul Hackett-era. After graduating in 2001, he started writing for the Daily News full time. He’s in his second year covering USC, which coincides with the rise of the program. He’ll take credit for the success, though Tim Floyd may have more to do with it. A third-generation Los Angelean, he grew up reading the Daily News while at El Camino Real High School in Woodland Hills.

More on Mayo

Here's my full story on Mayo's arrival.

Mayo is unfailingly polite and seems very conscious of his image. He calls me sir, which combined with turning 29 this past Sunday has me feeling a little old.

Great article Matt. Nice to see Mayo getting in early. High hopes for SC to continue its progress as a Basketball school. I just hope he is able to avoid some of the negative publicity that followed him back east. I'm sure Coach Floyd will have a positive impact on this guy.

Good stuff, Matt. Good to see you back.
