By now, everyone knows how the 49ers do business when it's time to extend one of their star players' contracts. That's why Brandon Aiyuk is being so patient this offseason. He knows the 49ers will give him the exact extension he wants if he simply waits.

According to Shakey's website, this pizza parlor is only in California, North Carolina, and Washington state in the U.S. now. This was my family's go-to pizza joint when my father was stationed with the Air Force outside of Omaha, Nebraska. We liked it so much, that when we were transferred again, it was hopeful we'd find another one.

Arthur Treacher's Fish & Chips is no longer in Missouri but it still has two free-standing locations in Ohio. It once was a large chain across the country. I still recall the one off of 71 Highway in Kansas City, Missouri that used to be behind the once-popular Truman Corners Shopping Center. It was my mother's go-to spot for fish & chips. That was a long time ago.

The USC Trojans are getting smoked by the Oregon Ducks in college football recruiting. It’s hard to avoid that reality, as unpleasant as it is. Oregon’s collection of four- and five-star football recruits dwarfs what USC has been able to do. Washington and UCLA also have reason to be concerned, alongside USC, about the extent to which Dan Lanning is stacking recruits and building future rosters in Eugene. It’s true that if Oregon doesn’t make a big splash in one of the next two seasons, we could see some recruits sour on the Ducks, but right now, this is a destination program with a robust NIL setup and attractive, modern facilities. Oregon and Ohio State are the two teams favored to meet in the Big Ten Championship Game later this season. Oregon is widely viewed as a top-five-caliber team with a great shot at making the College Football Playoff semifinals, not merely the playoff itself. USC might not make the playoff in 2024, but the Trojans must at least take big forward steps so that the “reputation gap” between the two programs decreases this year.

For the past few years, the 49ers' roster blueprint has been extremely specific: Go cheap at quarterback and spend big practically everywhere else. Maybe they should stop spending so much money on wide receivers.

Does 49ers QB Brock Purdy Need Expensive Wide Receivers to Succeed?

The USC football program expects to compete for national championships. That’s the standard around here, and no one is claiming otherwise. Pete Carroll reminded us of that standard. However, context matters, and processes sometimes can’t occur instantly, in one fell swoop. Sometimes, building a program to a championship standard requires two or even three years. Such is life at USC right now.

USC is not going to restore Pete Carroll glories in one season
