Dan Weber, Riverside Press-Enterprise John David Booty was back at practice for a second straight day, taking snaps, making throws that looked nearly normal and surprising both himself and his coaches — and he wasn’t even the big story Wednesday. Offensive linemen Chilo Rachal and Sam Baker were. They’re back, feeling good and expecting to…

That was the Tuesday word for offensive guard Chilo Rachal, attempting his return to the lineup this week, after he threw his helmet in disgust at realizing the swelling in his calf from a strained knee ligament hadn’t gone down. “My first major injury,” Rachal said of his bout of impatience and frustration. After icing…

Here’s the update: John David Booty – Threw with a glove today and looked better than expected. Could possibly play this Saturday but will likely play a back-up role.

It was a cool idea, and well-executed too. That full-color USC schedule poster featuring 16 Trojans in action poses showed the strength and numbers of this year’s USC team.

Butch Lewis is on track to start at left tackle with Sam Baker still trying to overcome his hamstring injury. Shareece Wright will play and Chilo Rachal returns tomorrow. Brian Cushing is also fit.

Make that a thin cardinal line protecting USC’s backfield, which also happens to be hamstrung by injuries. While every team looses players during the season (Cal lost to Oregon State without their starting QB, Stanford beat USC without their’s), can anybody in the nation match up with the Trojan’s carnage? From USC football’s weekly press…

Chilo Rachal, Brian Cushing and Kris O’Dowd all hope to return for the Notre Dame game. Stafon Johnson remains up in the air for this week but Shareece Wright said he wants to play, if he feels good enough.

“We were doing fine, then something hit the fan and we haven’t recovered,” Carroll said. “Ever since those two guys (Kris O’Dowd, Chilo Rachal) got hurt at Washington. We have to overcome whatever that is. That’s what it has felt like from an observational point. We have to get back on track “Not having Stafon…

Alatini Malu has made a career of being a backup at USC. You’ve probably never heard of Malu, but you expect him not to mess up. When a starter goes down, as offensive guard Chilo Rachal did in the first quarter against Washington Saturday night, you expect his replacement not to miss a beat in…

<!–start image–><!– end image–>Zack Heberer is USC’s starting right guard at least until tomorrow. With Chilo Rachal gone for at least a couple of weeks, Pat Ruel has some things to figure out, and it looks like he wants to play with his toys. Also inside: Travon Patterson‘s season-ending injury puts some added pressure on…

Kris O’Dowd said he will be out 2-4 weeks with a discolated knee and undergo surgery for torn cartilage tomorrow. Chilo Rachal said he is day-to-day but wore a knee brace for his sprained knee.
