Offseason Update #1

    Since USC is currently in the offseason, I decided that I would blog about the biggest offseason updates. With the hire of Clay Helton as the official Head Coach of the Trojans on November 30, there have been a lot of coaching changes. One of the biggest coaching changes was the hire of former Wide Receivers Coach Tee Martin to Offensive Coordinator. Tee Martin replaced Clay Helton as Offensive Coordinator. Tee Martin should be a great Offensive Coordinator due to his knowledge of the Trojans offense. The biggest and smartest hire in my opinion was the hire of Clancy Pendergast as the Defensive Coordinator. Former Defensive Coordinator Justin Wilcox was fired on December 7. Clancy Pendergast was a very smart hire due to his stats that he had when he used to be a defensive coordinator in 2013. Under Clancy Pendegast's defense, the Trojans defense only allowed 21.2 points per game and led the Pac-12 in total defense. It is definitely going to be nice to have him back after former Head Coach Steve Sarkisan fired him in 2014. Hopefully these two major coaching changes will help the Trojans get to the playoffs in the season to come.
