Born in Boston, Massachusetts to Steven Wolf and Susan Enowitch, Wolf was raised in West Orange, New Jersey. He graduated in 1986 from West Orange High School. Staff Writer John Fox's first official practice to claim the USC An abbreviation for U.S. Code. starting quarterback position could have gone a little better Tuesday. ``It was horrible. Absolutely horrible,'' Fox said. ``The worst (practice) in my entire life.'' After getting his first considerable playing time in two years in last Saturday's loss to Cal, Fox came out overexcited Tuesday. ``I'm just too hyper right now,'' Fox said. ``I can't even feel my toes. I feel like a little kid. Especially today. I feel a lot of life today.'' Fox's effort did not hurt his standing with USC coach Paul Hackett, however. ``I think it's a psychological reaction to `I'm getting more reps and I have to be perfect,' '' Hackett said. ``He needs a little more time. I was pleased with some things and not pleased with some things.'' Hackett said he will wait until the end of the week to make a decision, although Fox is expected to start over incumbent Mike Van Raaphorst. ``We've got to massage the game plan,'' Hackett said. ``We have to be careful what to ask and what to expect of him.'' Fox appeared to get more repetitions than Van Raaphorst on Tuesday, and Hackett said he needed more time to evaluate the situation, although he could also be trying to keep Arizona State off-balance. ``That's why I can't make a decision.

Fox admitted that even though the Trojans lost to Cal, he was re-energized by his quarterback appearance. ``I feel rejuvenated re·ju·ve·nate tr.v. re·ju·ve·nat·ed, re·ju·ve·nat·ing, re·ju·ve·nates 1. To restore to youthful vigor or appearance; make young again. 2. ,'' Fox said. ``A little part of me just came alive.'' Young's a candidate: USC defensive coordinator A defensive coordinator typically refers to a coach on a football team in the National Football League or college football who is in charge of the defense. This position aids the head coach a great deal in many ways by delegating play calling to other coaches and allowing the head Bill Young sent his resume to Tulsa on Tuesday for the head-coaching position.
