Usc football scott wolf8/28/2023 Haden has mismanaged Kiffin from the start. Whatever Kiffin's reasons are for firing KP, legitimate or not, Kiffin won't get a pass because of how he managed other situations in his tenure here and elsewhere. If Kiffin flops this season he is probably gone so there is a cause and effect. I am not a fan of Kiffin firing Polamalu but in the end it is his choice how he wants his staff to look. The rebuttal shows how Haden is "all in" with Kiffin. They do a nice job on getting info out about USC Athletics but this rebuttal should have come directly from the SID's or the AD's office. Using the Ripsit blog is even more of a sham. I don't know what is accurate or not in this latest Wolf piece, but given his inaccuracies in the past none of us should be surprised if Wolf got some things wrong here. The firing of a popular coach is not the narrative to challenge when the school as a whole is being accused by supposed responsible media personalities that the school directly committed rules violations with regards to Bush. Why didn't USC call out the other media entities over the years for their lack of accurate reporting in the Reggie Bush mess? You know when the clowns at ESPN and elsewhere said USC actually paid for Reggie Bush's house. It has already been shown that Wolf has an axe to grind against USC so why give him more pub? USC already bungled their attempt to suspend Wolf over his reporting of injured players this past season, this just makes them look more petty. Like him or not Wolf will always get support from The DN big wigs if for nothing more than a journalist doing his job. I am having a hard time understanding why USC always picks the wrong battles. I would disagree, they clearly pay attention otherwise I would not have got that call from Nikias' people. Pat Haden made a comment about the blogosphere in one of his recent post season interviews and how he doesn't pay much mind to it when it comes to Kiffin. I stood by the piece and refused to take it down or clarify anything further in it. Nikias actually read the piece I was told. I was called by a representative from Nikias office expressing his and Nikias' displeasure for the piece I wrote. They didn't like my piece on Nikias a year or two ago. On the flip side USC is not happy with me either. You simply can't dismiss the world of sports blogging in the news, opinion and commentary that many blogs put out. To me Tessalone seems behind the times when it comes how news is gathered and disseminated. There are more details on this but I am leaving them out intentionally. I did it more for the person than I did for the access.Tessalone saw right through what I was trying to do and he was pissed. Tessalone didn't like the way I approached it and who my choice was to get credentials. We clashed a few years back when I tried get someone access to practice to represent Conquest Chronicles. What I find interesting is USC actually addressing the alleged inaccuracies in the article and using the Ripsit blog to do it.įull disclosure, I am not a fan of Tim Tessalone. There are really just two people who know the truth, Kiffin and Polamalu and until either one or both of them comment it's all speculation to me. Anything from KP challenging Kiffin to KP having personal issues and everything in between. ![]() ![]() I have read a number of comments on the boards by supposed insiders as to reasons that Polamalu was "dismissed". USC then uses the Ripsit blog to correct the "inaccuracies" in Wolf's piece. Think about all of this for a minute.Wolf writes a piece slamming Kiffin for the whole Kennedy Polamalu situation, with many "unnamed" sources. We need a timeline of how this guy spent his day as a USC football player. We had a previous issue with him at the soccer field, so we knew who he was but he had never done something like this before.”Īs if all of this isn’t crazy enough, the guy did this on April Fool’s Day. He also shouldn’t even be on campus with the COVID-19 restrictions. “That’s the question and the problem for me. “I’m not sure how he got into the McKay Center so easily,” a security source told Wolf last week. Wolf was also told that the imposter has used a suite at the Coliseum to grab some sleep and has been busted by USC security hanging out at the school’s soccer field. Wolf reports the imposter was so good at his craft that he even went as far as jumping into a hot tub with Trojans players and even grabbed a meal without being busted. It turns out there’s more to the story than the guy just getting past security and into the practice facility where he was able to get his hands on a uniform and make it onto the practice field. The USC football player imposter story has taken a twist, according to Trojans insider Scott Wolf, who has further reporting about the guy who was busted fielding punts during a practice last week.
