I agree USC can build a better B-ball program. Tennessee is about 10 years ahead of that game as they build the monster 23,000 seat Boling Arena and have been to the Big Dance four or five times with zero Great Eight or better appearances. They have the National Coach of the Year in Bruce Pearl and beat both LSU and Florida. Not bad, but the Orange and White Spring football game with host 50 to 70,000 people to watch a practice! You can`t believe how hard it is to get football season tickets in a stadium that seats 109,000!

I bet USC`s Spring game will do similar. It`s just a matter of who wants it bad enough.

Oh, Snoop Dog was my neighbor in CA. He lives in Diamond Bar -- next door to Chino Hills -- and regularly went to football practice with his kid in DBHS. He actually has a clue about football.
