    USC would welcome NFL team to the Coliseum with open arms

    USC would welcome NFL team to the Coliseum with open arms


    The NFL's dance with a franchise in Los Angeles has started and stopped more often than the traffic on the infamous 405 freeway.


    Talk seems to be picking up about the league moving back to L.A., however, and if a team needs a temporary home in the next few years while the complicated stadium situation is sorted out, USC would be happy to help it out -- for a price, of course.


    The school recently took over control of the L.A. Memorial Coliseum and is expected to pump as much as $100 million worth of private funds to renovate the historic venue. Naturally, that is being done with the USC football program in mind, but athletic director Pat Haden said on Monday that the school would very much be open to an NFL team playing there until it can get its own stadium built....

    The NFL will never go back to the Coliseum. The stadium is almost a hundred years old for cripes sakes. I don't think the place has many luxury boxes, if any. Not to mention the 40,000+ empty seats the last time the Raiders played there.
