<p>USC is also getting rid of Bush’s Heisman, and removing all trace of both Bush and OJ Mayo. </p>
<p>IDK, I like the move.</p>
<p>good riddance</p>
<p>This is an awesome move by incoming President Nikkas. I read his 4 page letter and the attachments. USC is putting it’s money where it’s mouth is. This is beyond a major house cleaning. It’s a reorg of the entire Athletic Department. Long time coming yes, but Nikkas as sent a powerful message to the AD, the NCAA and the entire Trojan Family.</p>
<p>Pat Haden has earned a lot of respect and I fully expect him & JK McKay to set the program in order. I think this is a very good move.</p>
<p>
</p>
<p>Haden isn’t exactly new to USC.</p>
<p>Haden and McKay’s blood is the color cardinal and gold.</p>
<p>Pat Haden has the integrity, intelligence and demeanor to be an outstanding AD. I applaud President Nikkas’ decision. Pat Haden exudes class and his appointment is a breath of fresh air. Well done!</p>
