Breaking news on USC

[Crimson Cat]

With Lame running the show, they might end up back before the committee before its all said and done.

I agree.
I for one suspect that U$C had a good idea what was coming and thats why Kiffin was hired. No decent coach would have taken the job with the NZAA sanctions looming. Its the only reasonable explanation for hiring that buffoon at a school like U$C, and only fitting seeing as he was there during the timeframe that the infractions ocurred.

The only bad part of this is in my part of the country there aren't any USC fans for me to get in their collective faces about this. So long for the next decade, suckers. :biggrin2:

Don't worry, I'll do enough for the both of us. I've heard enough of their stuff the past few years.

Now their cry is "the appeal will soften it."

Dare we say a "moral victory"????:biggrin::biggrin::biggrin::biggrin:

Lame Kiffen is indeed the USC version of Mike Shula.
Only a tenth as nice and a tenth as classy.
They have to hire someone to coach through the mess coming their way.
Takes some of the wonder out of "How did a guy with his record land this gig?"

When the full effects of the scholarship reductions hit we will see how Kiffen manages injuries and 4th quarter stamina!

SportsByBrooks is reporting that Snoop Dogg and Will Ferrell may have had a hand in the demise of USC. . . This is going to get extremely interesting.

Snoop Dogg I can understand... he'll probably end up as the Luther Campbell (Rapper who was paying Miami players back in the day) of this scenario. Will Ferrell is surprising, although he is a huge USC fan.

Talk about being in denial...gotta love some of the comments over on their board...

Probabation and loss of 5 scholarships would have been a more just action.

Riiiiight....

I really wish they would have added one more year of post season ban. They will be able to recruit kids and tell them "after you redshirt a year, we'll be back to normal". A 3rd year of post season ban would have prevented that. Although, I'm confident that the Kiffen regime will find a way to increase those sanctions.

I lioved this one from Wearesc

Knowing that the ncaa had to make an example out of SC

--------------------------------------------------------------------------------
and with alabama getting away scott free, how long will it take for SC to file a law suit against the ncaa? For what, I would say excessive power and ruling, and what alabama did and their lenency they had.

I believe a one year band from bowl games and 5 to 10 scholis would have been appropriate. But the ncaa has to find a scape goat and use the power to demonstrate that they are "still" in control.

If I am a fan or alum of USC right now, with Gangster Garrett, Lane and Ogre at the helm, and a five year probation, I am DT_wc: bricks.

The greatest of all revenge would be if Derek Dooley and Tennessee completely raided USC's JR and SR classes. Mitch Mustain's phone is probably ringing off the hook.

I'd rather not see this happen.

5 star recruits aren't usually looking for a redshirt year.
