John was in the late 70s early 80s I believe. The preceding coach to Pete was the .500 shooting Paul Hackett, something like 19-18 or 20-19 in his 3 years. The real USC headlining coach was McKay(4 titles).

They are still in negotiations with the coliseum comm. I dont think it will happen, because ucla is under contract with the rose bowl as their home, and ucla said they would let sc play there for 1 year and no more. Usc just wants the commission to fix up the stadium. It has had the same old bathrooms for at least 30 yrs.

With USC losing 4/5 OL, one has to like our defense's chances to stuff the run and get pressure on the Trojan QB that early in the season.

so whats the tally on this now that they know who is staying and who is leaving?
4 OL need replaced
2 DL
1 LB
1 QB
?? I'm not sure of any of that outside the QB.
Edit
Link to USC's last 2007 depth chart
Looks like they have to replace:
4 OL
TE
QB
1 DE
Nose Tackle
Will LB
1 CB
Long snapper
Holder
That's 10 of the 22 position players and a couple of key specialists. I know they have tons of talent to step in but thats a lot of offense to replace by week 3.

quit bringing this stuff up.....you are giving all the talking heads ammo to use when we kick USC's ass. Our win will mean nothing because of all the talent USC lost. Of course at years end when they beat up on a bunch of mediocre teams, they will be the team playing the best football "right now".

"Mediocre"?
You're calling Oregon St, Stanford, WA, etc "mediocre"?
That's an insult to mediocrity, right there.
They will have a lot of weapons on O and a very good, fast back 7 on D...........but at least with everybody coming back for tOSU, they will get the full monty from us.
