    Petros is great and it's a shame that FOX Sports for some reason has downgraded his role as color commentator over the years. 4-5 years ago they had him in the ridiculous "sideline analyst" role (ala Tony Siragusa in the NFL a few years back), and now for the last 3 years they've had him in what seems to be a training role, with a three man booth with new analysts to show them the ropes (A.J. Hawk in 2016, Helfrich last year, and DeMarco Murray this year), and are usually lower-tier games. Yes, his voice is what it is, but he knows his shit, tells it like it is, and calls people out.

    People more likely than Clay Helton to be head coach of USC next season:

    Jeff Fisher
    Tee Martin
    Pete Carroll

    Please hire Jeff Fisher.

    Those are precisely the problem. Can't get in line with the narratives or get on board with the spin upper management is pushing.
