Hayden played with John MacKay Jr and they both played for John MacKay.

Since he left YSC has been trying to find another John MacKay. There is no other John Mackay. No one made the room laugh like MacKay on the LA monday morning press breakfasts. He once was asked what he thought about his defense’s execution and he said he thought it was a good idea.

I blame the athletic department and whats his name in Seattle who bailed on USC and avoid the sanctions from the NCAA. This started with Reggie Bush and USC has never recuperated.

The best two coaches in Cal are the guy at Stanford and rocky long at San Diego State. Put Rocky at USC and they would win conference 3 out of every 4 years. But not glamorous and he’s old.

Well, Lynn Swann has decided to keep Clay Helton for another season. Papadakis actually gave another sports host a half hour interview this morning about it. Very, very insightful. He was outstanding! There's so much wrong with the program that it is exhausting to enumerate. And whereas under Pete Carroll there'd be 90,000 in the Coliseum, today's team barely draws 60,000. And they boo Helton. He said that all the other coaches on the team would probably be fired.

So why keep Helton??? No logical explanation except many ensconced in the athletic program want to protect their own fiefdom.
