USC Athletic Dept Urged to Study Greek Literature

USC's football team mistakenly linked its season debut to Homer’s "The Odyssey," a story centered on the Greek hero Odysseus’ long journey home after the Trojan War, which ended with the Greeks sacking Troy. The university promoted its upcoming season with a poster referencing "Our Odyssey begins," despite the Trojans being on the losing side of the historic conflict. This repeated oversight highlights a lack of basic historical understanding, as the Trojan side in the myth was destroyed, making the comparison to their own season's start both ironic and inappropriate.
