SAN FRANCISCO -- His duties now finished, director of football operations Matt Capurro is heading back to L.A.
After a jam-packed, 24-hour trip to San Francisco to complete all the logistical preparations for USC's week-long stay leading up to the Emerald Bowl on Dec. 26, Capurro's toughest work has been completed, as the foundation has now been laid for a hopefully smooth and triumphant journey to the Bay Area for the game in 15 days.
"The trip was a very successful one," said Capurro, who's in his first season as the head of logistics for the Trojan football machine. "It always helps to be on site."
Capurro raved about USC's practice facility at City College of San Francisco and the team's downtown hotel, along with the AT&T Park game site.
"It's an interesting setup for football, but the guys are really going to like it and enjoy being there," he said. "It's a really neat venue whether it's for baseball or football."
