I spoke with Clay Helton today to see where things stand with hiring a new strength and conditioning coach. He told me he's in the midst of interviewing candidates both inside the program and out, while intimating Keith Belton, who's running the program in Ivan Lewis' absence, is a candidate.
Helton said the target date to make a hire is before spring practice, which begins in four weeks. He did note that the decision is not his alone because the job entails overseeing strength and conditioning for all of USC athletics, which I'd mentioned before.
