Longtime LA Times sportswriter Chris Dufresne was kind enough to sit down with Tucson Weekly's resident sportswriter, Christopher Boan on Wednesday.

The two covered a wide variety of subjects, including the state of USC's football team, the UCLA mens basketball coaching search, and what the state of the Pac-12 is at the moment.

Dufresne worked for the LA Times from 1981-2015, covering everything from the LA Rams to the Trojans and Bruins, while also serving as the Times' college football and basketball columnist.
