The President of USC, Carol Folt feels that the new environment created in the sporting arena opens a world of opportunities for their student-athletes giving them a win-win situation. The academic standards and sporting excellence maintained and practiced by the USC have given them a pride of place and they hope to draw the maximum benefits for their students through this tie-up in 2024.

It has been declared that both USC and their hometown competitors UCLA have joined the Big Ten Conference where already 10 other members like the University of Wisconsin, the University of Iowa, etc.

Mike Bohn, who happens to be the Athletic Director too feels the same way about joining the BIG Ten Conference and winning major benefits for the students. He thinks that the conference provides a secure shelter for both the USC and the Trojan Athletics the nickname that is given to the teams from USC for various sports verticals like basketball and football.


The students who are representing USC in various sports would be receiving $5,980 per year as an incentive to further their respective careers. This is as per the directives of the Supreme Court ruling. The rules and regulations for partaking in the Alston Awards will also be specified at the start of the new college month. USC today boasts of more than 550 sportspersons in their college who play 21 different sports. They are given coaching by 250 coaches and support staff. The various Trojans have won 134 championships at the national level and more than 450 individual NCAA titles.
