Snoop Dogg Sarkisian Deserves A Second Chance ... 'That's My Homeboy'

Snoop Dogg is going to bat for disgraced USC coach Steve Sarkisian ... saying he knows the man personally and thinks he's worthy of another shot on the sidelines.

It's a huge statement from Snoop -- not just because he's a HUUUGE USC fan -- but because he's got a history of calling out NFL and college coaches when he thinks they should get fired ... even at SC.

So, when he was leaving Supperclub in Hollywood the other day ... we had to ask if he thinks Sark should be put out to pasture permanently for allegedly being liquored up around his players.
