Seriously, when was the last time USC Athletics made a decision that the majority of fans, boosters, and alumni felt was good?

- Lane Kiffin as HC to replace PC = WRONG
- Not firing Lane after the Sun Bowl incident = WRONG
- Sark as HC to replace Kiffin = WRONG
- Kevin O'Hackett hired as basketball HC (and kept for 4 1/2 years, even after he got in a fight with an Arizona booster) = WRONG
- Not fighting the NCAA = WRONG
- Coliseum Renovation = WRONG
- Josh Shaw incident = WRONG
- Dillon Baxter Golf Cart incident = WRONG
- Replacing Mike Garrett with Pat Haden = WRONG
- Selling out a national historic landmark's name = WRONG
- Reducing the Coliseum's capacity but keeping the worst seats = WRONG
- Diluting or TV rights by splitting revenue evenly among all Pac-12 schools, even though they cheered when the NCAA hammered us = WRONG
- Not pulling Scott Wolf's credentials permanently = WRONG
- Not only keeping Tim Tessalone after his $100 donor comment, but also PROMOTING him = WRONG
- Caving when one of the big boosters threaten to pull his renovation money if Lynn Swann isn't hired while contracts to hire an AD whose current school has won multiple national championships = WRONG
- Handling of the De'Anthony Melton situation = WRONG
- Handling of the Chris Petersen interview = WRONG
- Not interviewing a wide range of HCs for the football HC opening (specifically not talking to Chip Kelly) = WRONG
- Handling of the Coach O as interim HC situation = WRONG
- Hiring Clay Helton as football HC with no experience = WRONG
- Hiring Chad Kreuter as baseball HC = WRONG
- Hiring Frank Cruz as baseball HC = WRONG

Seriously, what was the last correct decision USC athletics has made? Enfield? Jury is still out.

It feels that every decision USC Athletics has made even since the sanctions came down has been dead wrong.

Man, I am really getting to the end of my rope with these poor decisions... I know so many alumni/boosters who have stopped their booster memberships... At what point does the athletic department take notice?
