Do I have the solutions? No. Maybe some other people have some ideas.
First, when looking at the ENTIRE USC Athletic Department things aren't a disaster. On a scale of A to F it's probably a C to C+. The women's basketball program is a national power. The men's baseball team has been a national power and trending in the right direction. However, the two biggest sports mens football and basketball need significant change. Yes, in the past 5 years we've seen some success. A final 4 in basketball and some winning seasons at football. However, I think everyone agrees both programs should be better. Hopefully Beamer is the answer and improves the football program. All this BS with Frank Martin and Darla Moore is ridiculous. Someone or group of individuals that have the clout need to step up and push for change. The question is what change is going to fix things? Is the problem the BOT? Is the problem Tanner? Is the problem fans keep filling the stadium or arena and paying money no matter the results? I understand it's probably a combination of these things. However, what's the biggest one or two changes that need to take place?
