USC athletic director Lynn Swann had several reasons to part ways from USC football coach Clay Helton but released a statement Sunday that announced the return of the Helton for 2019.
Despite losing back-to-back games against rival UCLA and Notre Dame and the lack of support from former players and fans, it was not enough to relieve Helton of his coaching duties.
“Clay Helton is our head coach and he will continue to be our head coach.”

With no changes made at the top, Swann and Helton’s comments Sunday made it clear that neither side was happy about the “disappointing” 5-7 season.
Here are the rumblings regarding USC:
If Clay Helton’s buyout is around $15 million, which I’ve heard from multiple people, there’s a bigger problem with the USC athletic department than a bad football coach. We’re talking about an interim coach who had never been a head coach before and was in Memphis for a decade.

USC AD Lynn Swann released a statement earlier saying Clay Helton is returning as head coach. That's going to make these next few weeks a lot easier on the Trojans in recruiting to have that out of the way, already out on in-home visits https://t.co/sYZ77aIgzU

Clay Helton remaining at #USC means the legacy of Pat Haden continues to haunt the university

Pretty surprised #USC gave a quick vote of confidence to Clay Helton. Good move though imo. To me he’s the obvious choice if the Miami job is vacant anytime soon.

Nice support for Helton by Swann. Good to see him step up for his coach. USC program will be better for it. https://t.co/nO5E2vDdVK

A sampling of the USC message board headlines this afternoon:
"We need a name for this infamous day”
"Burn the Coli down….”
"We were just told to F-Off by USC."
"Fire Swann Banner?”
"Norm Chow?"

“By all means, USC, keep the horse, keep the song girls, keep the band’s habit of wearing sunglasses at all times. But it’s time to cast a hard, unsparing eye on everything else.”@Jim_Alexander weighs in on USC’s decision to retain Clay Helton: https://t.co/Tw24b7xc1J
