A reporter from the Southern California News Group is no longer suspended from covering the USC football team, according to a pair of statements shared via social media Thursday.
, Evans detailed a seemingly normal conversation between Joyner and fellow freshman Braylan Shelby. The conversation, which occurred in front of reporters but before media availability, was about how they were nervous to speak with journalists — something that was new to them. Evans even spoke to Joyner's father on the phone later, and his dad thought the conversation was funny and spot-on.
But USC claimed Evans violated its policy that prohibits reporting on anything outside of media availability in the practice facility. When Riley was asked to elaborate Tuesday, he opted not to, simply adding"we felt it was far enough that we needed to act on it." He also said,"the article in question was not accurate.""Last night, I received a call from Luca Evans, and we had very candid and productive conversation.
This comes after Orange County Register senior editor Todd Harmonson, sports editor Tom Moore and SCNG publisher Ron Hasse also penned a letter to the university formally asking for the suspension to be lifted. The university stood by the football team in response, so it's fortunate Evans and Riley came to this outcome through their conversation.Listen
