Smith's World
USC went down to the wire a few years ago recruiting offensive tackle Andre Smith of Birmingham, Ala. He ended up signing with Alabama and is a semifinalist for the Lombardi Award. He's allowed one sack this season after allowing three his freshman and sophomore seasons.



How come you never mention players that other schools tried to get that USC got? I can think of a couple that other teams would have killed for, maybe; Carson Palmer, Troy Polamalu, Mike Williams, Sam Baker, Sedrick Ellis, Lawerence Jackson, Reggie Bush, Matt Leinart, LenDale White, Steve Smith, Ryan Kalil, Dwayne Jarrett, Lofa Tatupu, Mike Patterson, Shaun Cody, Winston Justice, Jeff Byers, Keith Rivers, Rey Maualuga, Brian Cushing, Kevin Ellison, Taylor Mays......but no it is much easier to choose one of the guys they didn't get. By the way Scott, the Big 12 and the SEC called, they were hoping you could get your head out of there ass sometime soon.
