Here’s an interesting exchange from my story on Matt Barkley and Jimmy Clausen.
In one memorable scene, Clausen chased USC defensive end Malik Jackson off the field following Jackson’s roughing-the- passer penalty.
“He said, `Good job, Malik. Good job, Malik. (Dummy),’ ” Jackson said. “What could I say? I messed up.”
Jackson made sure to find Clausen after the game to return the favor.
“I said, “Good job Jimmy. You (jerk).’ He just kept walking,” Jackson said.
