WHO OWNS L.A.?

The sport of football can be unforgiving.

Tre Madden doesn’t need to be reminded how cruel it can be. After four years at USC, he has frustratingly watched his past three seasons come and go.

Injuries are not something Madden thinks about when he comes to practice each day. He simply doesn’t have time as he plays out not the first, but the second chapter in his comeback story.

“That’s in the past and I’m focused on this year,” Madden said.
