Tim Floyd
Does Pete Carroll like his martini shaken, not stirred? Does Tim Floyd really demand a mini SC umbrella in every mixed-drink? If you want to see these questions (and many more) answered first hand, sign up for one of the seven event dates, May 28th to June 12th, for the third annual USC Coaches Tour. As lifted from CSTV:
The 2008 USC Coaches Tour, featuring Pete Carroll and Tim Floyd, is set to kick off for the third year in a row as the two head coaches visit Trojans throughout California to give USC fans and boosters the opportunity to hear first-hand accounts of the latest comings and goings at Troy.
Each of the seven dates on the tour feature a cocktail reception at 6 p.m. and a dinner and program that start at 7 p.m. Among the parts of the program are a Q&A session with both coaches and a silent auction. Business casual attire is suggested.
Proceeds from the tour will benefit the Mario Danelo Endowed Scholarship and the Ryan Francis Endowed Scholarship funds.
All your friends will think you're the ultimate bad-ass when they see the photos of you, in between Carroll and Floyd. Plus it all goes to a descent cause. Please see the CSTV site for information regarding tickets, dates and RSVP information.

USC's compliance office also banned Rodney Guillory from receiving tickets to its home games.

Seems the only ones surprised by the fact that O.J. Mayo received money from an agent runner were Tim Floyd and the athletic department at USC. And on the heels of the Reggie Bush debacle, USC should be crushed by the NCAA, the Pac-10 and its own administration, writes Pat Forde....

As we said for several weeks, Davon Jefferson submitted his name to the NBA for the draft. But here's the news. He didn't even have the courtesy to inform USC of his decision and the school was caught flatfooted while other colleges announce their players' decisions. We also hear Jefferson's clashes with Tim Floyd were a major reason he...

Taj Gibson likes when Tim Floyd has ulcers. At least that's what it looks like. LA Times is reporting that the sophomore-forward, who averaged 10.8 points and 7.8 rebounds per game, announced Monday night at the Trojan team banquet that he would return for his junior year. Good news for the soon-to-be defense depleted Trojan basketball team, and a sure sigh of relief to Floyd. But don't relax too much Tim-bo! The article continues to say Gibson's commitment to his junior year might not be as solid as hoped:
...a source close to the situation said the 6-foot-9 forward would assess his future over the next few days before deciding whether to declare for the NBA draft.
Gibson, a projected second round pick, has a lot to mull over in the coming weeks. So, Tim...grab a bottle of champagne in one hand and a 20-pack of alka-seltzer in the other. It's a long wait until April 27th, the early-deadline to declare for the NBA draft.

"Next question,'' O.J. Mayo said when asked what that combo undershirt/protective pad was that could be seen encircling his rib cage under USC's new skintight Nike uniform tops. Turns out it's a new "impact'' piece of undergear that has a built-in row of thin, soft, conforming protective pads built into it. With Mayo set to play James Harden man-to-man...

The Daily News is reporting that LSU offered USC basketball coach Tim Floyd the head coaching position with the Louisiana State Tigers. Floyd is a natural candidate for the position, having previously coached the New Orleans Hornets, owned a house in Louisiana and recruited college-talent from the state. Although he was not available for comment on the offer, sources close to the situation claim Floyd was not interested in the offer. Floyd has been recently quoted as saying:
"I've said USC would be the last job I had," Floyd said last month. "I'm happy here."
And the 20-10 Trojans are happy with Floyd, who leads USC into their second straight NCAA tournament under his guidance.
