Some History On USC And Fox Sports West

Posted on by

USC did not wait to announce Nico Falah’s letter of intent even though he is scheduled to go on Fox Sports West this afternoon. But this reminded me that USC told Fox Sports West it would no longer wait to announce player decisions after the infamous DeSean Jackson announcement a few years ago.

Jackson told USC he was going to be a Trojan and then announced on TV he would attend Cal.

    I heard you were the one that announced it on this very blog that Jackson was going to attend USC. Jackson read it on your blog, and was upset because you announced it and decided last minute to attend Cal. It was your fault according to people.

      Omg! Did Wolfman do that? He is really supposed to be in USC corner not banging us up all the time. Pretty funny tho. Shades of Josh Shirley.

      Link please, if you have it.

      • Mike

        That was years ago, I do not have the link, I don’t even remember where I read it or if it was even true.

        • betomas

          What? That’s totally wack.

    hmm, well, maybe the Pac12 network should try to horn in on the announcement process…

    This bit of logic makes no sense. An LOI and a verbal promise are 2 VERY different things

    • Mike

      That’s just what I heard. Not sure if it’s true. I do know that Jackson was pretty much wrapped up and was sure he was attending USC and even informed the coaches. At the very last minute he became upset because news broke out that he was attending USC and someone announced it before he did.

        Either that or MeSean didn’t want to compete with other 4 and 5 star WRs, a la Steve Smith and Dwayne Jarrett.

        • Spedjones

          yeah, I’m sure that was it.

        • Mike

          Yea that makes sense too.

  • Lemmiwinks

    Today has been such a debacle by Lame Kitten.

  • Gilligan

    Did CJ Spiller commit again?

  • Golden Trojan

    Really people, watching on TV, 18 year olds announce where they are going to college. Like watching Little League Playoff games. If you don’t have anything else to do on a Wednesday man oh man get a job or a hobby or go study, something.

    And Kiffin loses Vanderdoes…
    I’d give anything to get TJ Simers onto Kiffin at his press conference and nail him on a cross like he does Mora. Only I’d beg Simers to really lay it on!
