Surprising nobody, USC's All-American wide receiver Dwayne Jarrett announced that he will forgo his final year of eligibility and enter the NFL Draft. The 6'5" Jarrett had an especially strong second half of the 2006 season, after healing from a shoulder injury, and set the Pac-10 record for career touchdowns (41 touchdowns in 38 games) while becoming USC's all-time receptions leader with 216 catches for 3,138 yards. He crowned his college career by winning the...

Ah yes. They ALMOST had us there for a minute didn’t they? We almost bought into it. But we should have known better. We had definitely seen this movie before. Sure they were able to tease us with close victories and give us heart attacks for 8 games. But the signs of the Ol’ Bruins that we have known from seasons past started to creep up. The innate ability to make other teams look much better than they really are; see the 21-17 squeaker versus the 1-8 Washington Huskies. The lack of any consistent defense (96th overall, 113th against the run). Playing just hard enough for three quarters and waiting for the proverbial “switch” to turn in the 4th quarter. It all seemed eerily familiar. We all secretly held out hope that this would finally be the year that the potential of our Bruins finally manifested itself in a championship season. But we knew deep down that a loss was going to come eventually and that the dream of a LA showdown of two undefeated teams against the juggernaut at USC would again only be played out on our Playstations.

The LA Daily News is reporting that Tim Floyd has agreed to become the next Head Coach of USC basketball. Provided USC and the New Orleans Hornets can agree on a financial settlement, Floyd will be introduced next week.

According to multiple reports, USC Basketball Head Coach Rick Majerus will resign after less than a week on the job. This answers the lingering question we all asked about Majerus: "But what about his health?"

The NCAA dealt a cruel blow to USC's Mike Williams by denying his reinstatement. "It's very cold and insensitive for them to deny him this opportunity," USC Head Coach Pete Carroll said.

While USC has enough talent to weather pretty much any loss, including Dennis, LAist is still concerned about off-the-field problems with Trojan football. Dennis could be the fifth Trojan arrested since winning the national championship. The most notable among the group was Winston Justice, who Carroll had the temerity to suspend for this season.

LAist has already commented on Rudy T several times. At this point we recognize he's probably the best coach out there if the Lakers want to feign competitiveness next season, even though he may not be the man who can keep Kobe and Shaq together.

The Sparks have lost one of their biggest Spark-plugs, as Head Coach Michael Cooper will leave the team to become an assistant coach with the Denver Nuggets.

While many college coaches have failed in the NBA, LAist feels that Krzyzewski is different because he is easily the most successful college coach over the last 20 years. He could command respect even in a pro locker room. Coach K has always been someone who adapted his style to his personnel, and that should serve him well in the NBA.

According to ESPN.com, Duke Head Coach Mike Krzyzewski is in "serious discussions" with the Lakers about their head coaching vacancy. Jim Gray added on SportsCenter that Mitch Kupchak (a North Carolina alum) was in the Tar Heel State today visiting Krzyzewski and has offered him the job.
