    I've felt like Whitt has been given a pass for their shortcomings for several years.
    KWhitt gets a pass from the locals because he beats BYU. That's it. The media hacks think the result of that one game is more important than the rest of the season.

      The current players are getting ripped off because the NCAA is basically giving away free passes to schools like Miami and restoring scholarships to Penn State, both of which were schools that were charged with actively covering up information. The NCAA logic behind the Penn State reversal is mind boggling. They said that they were restoring scholarships because PSU took corrective measures since the sanctions were handed down. wtf??? every single school that is hit with sanctions takes corrective measures afterward.

      Right now the roster is thin, low 60s, and maybe high 50s with injuries. You cant practice the same way with that kind of roster. You have a lot more defensive players playing on special teams than usual, less rotation during games so players get worn out a bit more. This has been the toughest aspect of the sanctions. Fortunately, SC can sign around 20 kids this LOI Day, so they should start getting back on track soon, but it may not be until around 2017 that the depth issue is corrected.

      I know, everyone is really sad about that!
      You keep using the terrible tragedy at Penn State to try to minimize USC's sins. You can't stop yourself, can you.

        Looking for a good Asian market near downtown. Making curry tonight for dinner but we are all out of rice. I usually buy my rice at that Asian market on State street in Orem but I wont have time to get all the way down there tonight. Need to find one in SLC. Anyone have any ideas?

          We ate at Sapa this weekend (700S State). There was an Asian market near there but I don't remember the name. Sorry.

            There is an Asian market on 7200 S. just off State. Across the street from Les Schwab; next door to el Farol.

            whoops, that's not near downtown. Never mind.

                When I was a kid, the LA Rams were my favorite team as well because of Merlin Olsen an Deacon Jones and my Dad's comments about his days at Utah St. with Merlin Olsen. I cheered for Pat Haden as well until the Rams drafted Vince Ferragamo from Nebraska whom I'd seen play in Lincoln. I grew tired of Haden's buddy TV announcers exclaiming how Haden was the Rams starting QB because he was so smart (Rhodes scholar) when Ferragamo was the better QB and was no dummy himself being an academic all-american (as well as all-american QB at Nebraska). To top it off, my tiresome older brother talked my Mom into giving me a Pat Haden poster for my B-day to hang on my wall with my Merlin Olsen and Deacon Jones posters knowing that I didn't like him but my Mom knew just enough about football to know that the Rams were my team and Haden was wearing the right uniform.

                To somehow tie this back to Lane Kiffen and USC....
                Monte Kiffin, Lane's father, was Nebraska's DC when Vince Ferragamo was QB. Lane Kiffen would have been conceived in Lincoln during the 1974 season but was born in Minneapolis during the off-season of the following year.

                      • Even in the darkest hours, the light still shines brightly! Where is Texas, a comparable school?

                        I think SC also is #1 for all time players to the NFL, as well as NFL HOF.

                                It might be time to change that light bulb. Did OJ make it into the NFL HOF?
