Three Possible Reasons Why Its Taking USC So Long To Name A Defensive Coordinator.

The Trojans are still without a defensive coordinator nearly one week after their final game, and there are no signs one will be named soon. Despite not having the staff completely assembled, USC has been active in the transfer portal and are starting to fill in at the positions of need. Plus some men's hoops news.Segment 1.--I have three possible reasons why USC's next defensive coordinator is still at-large, including a financial reason as well as a couple of others that need to be discussed.Segment 2.--Lincoln Riley and Chad Bowden have found a couple of needs in the transfer portal; USC now has an experienced WR and LB to go with their cornerback they previously picked up. Both are solid additions, however, did USC settle?Segment 3.--The men's hoops team traveled to the state of Michigan.

As USC football breaks in the 2026 New Year following another gut punch loss, Marvin Powell III and I talk about USC existing culture and whether it needs to be fixed.Segment 1.--TCU players did their talking on the field and after the game.
