Practice Recap
Wide receiver Travon Patterson was the early star of the young receivers during the first day of practice.
He and freshman cornerback Shareece Wright are already being considered as punt returners, Pete Carroll said.
Desmond Reed practiced but he is not cleared to play and will fly to the Bay Area next week, where his surgeon, Arthur Ting, is expected to examine him.
Reed said he hopes to be cleared for the first game.
Thank you Scott for the quick news about the Trojans.
Desmond Reed would provide balance to the offense if he his healthy. I know we keep hearing how good all the young talent is but as I recall Lendale White and Mr. Bush were not starters out of the gate against Auburn in 03. Reeds game experience would truly be an assest.
I'll refrain from the obvious joke.
Hope to see Reed playing again in 2006.
joke? usc 89 please feel free to make me laugh at you and then with you
A tribute also to Dez Reed; take the risk man, you deserve another shot... Patterson, Wright should fit in well as long as they hold onto the ball. Let's hope the new special teams coach gets results, we'd luv to see more kickoff returns for TD's this yr...
