Mayo bomb

| | Comments (10) |

Here's a detailed version of ESPN's story on O.J. Mayo. I'll have some observations later today. The story does not implicate USC in any wrongdoing, but an NCAA investigation will no doubt make that determination. And it's worth mentioning that Rodney Guillory, the person implicated in the ESPN story, was frequently in contact with USC coach Tim Floyd and other USC officials.

Scott,

If the NCAA and the PAC-10 performed a complete investigation about Mayo before and during his time at 'SC (assuming 'SC's statement to this is true), then why would you say that an NCAA investigation would implicate 'SC?

Do you know something the first investigation didn't find? If so, why didn't you report it then?

Doesn't add up.

Fight On!

Scott,

Chad Forde says that USC may suffer for this big time, Bush and Mayo have tarnished and hurt the image of USC Sports. Also will Garret and others be fired? Also what is the overall impact of these two superstars benefits on future recruitment?

The OJ Mayo Experiment was a complete and utter disaster. Part 2 is coming soon with the Little Romeo fiasco. let's just stay away from OJ's for a while...

I will continue to bleed Cardinal and Gold in football, Carolina blue in basketball, and navy and orange in baseball (CSUF '91)

Ay, ay, ay… this is just another tempest in a teapot stirred up by some Bob Woodward wannabe. As usual, a bunch of loser bRuins come out of the woodwork to predict the imminent demise of all USC sports. Dream on losers it ‘ain’t gonna happen, so take a breath and go back to cheering your girls water polo team.
BTW my ugly little bears; Mayo will have a successful career in the NBA, but that Fat Lunk that Can’t Jump of yours is a guaranteed bust.

Locoweed - I can tell that you are indeed loco on the weed. Mayo on top of Bush? UCLA thinking you guys are a bunch of cheaters is the LEAST of your problems.

What ever happened to ReelBruin? He’ so stupid he forgot his user name and password; that’s what happened! HAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHA!!!
P.S. Farmar can’t play either, watch him ride the pine for the rest of the playoffs.

I was thinking about Farmar and his failures in this Utah series too. Like all the Ben Howland Bruins, he absolutely tanks in the really big games.
As soon as Fisher had 2 fouls Farmar came in and threw up brick after brick.

Schmatagate?
It’s really hilarious to see the bRuin outcry over USC’s failure to have the Dorm Police explore Mayo’s wardrobe for cheap schmatas from and Men’s Land.
HAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHA!!!
