According to USCFootball.com and Orangebloods.com and linked here by Yahoo Sports’ Nick Bromberg, USC has hired Texas running backs coach Tommie Robinson to the same post.

Washington State

Washington State has hired JaMarcus Shephard as the new inside receivers coach. He spent the last two seasons coaching wide receivers at Western Kentucky and replaces Dave Yost, who is now off to Oregon.

Colorado

Colorado basketball begins its Washington road trip with a Wednesday nighter in Seattle (7 p.m. PT/8 p.m. MT, Pac-12 Networks), and Pat Rooney writes that the Buffs have to contain Andrew Andrews.

Washington

Speaking of which, why isn’t Andrew Andrews getting more recognition for what he has done this year? That’s the reasonable question posed by Percy Allen of The Seattle Times – after all, Andrews is scoring 21.4 points per game, and nobody has done that for the Huskies since Louie Nelson in 1972-73. Despite that, he hasn’t shown up on top senior lists on NBA draft websites, nor was he on the midseason watch list for the John Wooden Award.
