Los Angeles Times: Over six tumultuous seasons at the helm of USC football, Clay Helton has grown accustomed to coaching under a cloud of uncertainty. As his Trojans stumbled across the finish line in each of the last three seasons, the head coach’s job security has become a perennial question, his seat perpetually hot for more than half of his tenure.
Helton is used to the constant drumbeat of disillusioned USC fans calling for his firing by now. But no season has ever been defined by uncertainty quite like this last one, as the COVID-19 pandemic upended college football, cut USC’s season to six games and complicated the conversation surrounding the coach.
