The Clay Helton era at USC football is not over yet.
The Trojans opted to keep their fourth-year head coach on Sunday, sparing Helton from the executioners ax after the team played to a 8-4 record on the season.
I am pleased to let you know Coach Helton will continue to be our head coach.
His commitment to our student-athletes and to leading with integrity is vital to restoring our championship program, which is the goal for all of our teams.

Heading into 2020, Coach Helton and I will work together to take a hard look at all aspects of the football enterprise and will make the tough decisions necessary to compete at a championship level.
