Q: Mrtravlear726 said:
There was a rumor a few weeks ago that USC was discussing a game against Alabama at a neutral site - Dallas. To your knowledge, did any such discussions take place. If true, are the discussions ongoing?

A: I heard USC would love to play Alabama but there's not been wholehearted interest from the Crimson Tide. Although they will not rule it out, Alabama is not a serious contender for a future game.

Q: SCFTBL1 said:
Tyler Gaffney is going to Stanford. He can play immediately at either place and only be a special teams player for the next couple of years at SC. Will there be another fullback/powerback recruited this year?

A: With Gaffney going to Stanford, I don't anticipate USC recruiting/signing another back. It's too late to start looking now. But I'm not sure why USC didn't make Gaffney a tailback. He looked pretty good to me.

Q: Chiete76 said:
I'm sure I just missed this. But I thought we had a home and home series with Virginia. Now we have SLO?? What happened?
I'm assuming Virginia backed out to protect the health of it's players. I also assume SLO was the only school available with a heartbeat (as opposed to having a Nick Holt connection as Idaho did).

A: Virginia is scheduled to return its home game against USC in 2010.

Vekihite is a fullback. And, Hall is supposed to play tailback, I hear. I have not heard of an SC game in Dallas. That is incredible news, but I believe it is pure conjecture.

When do we cash in on Kiffin for a series with the Vols? I'm sure he wants a few years to get confortable before Pete rips him a new one on the field, but if we wait too long he'll probably get fired.

I WANT A GAME WITH THE SEC!

Chiete76 has apparently confused Cal Poly-San Luis Obispo with San Jose State.

About Inside USC

Scott Wolf has covered USC for the Daily News since 1996. A USC graduate, he covered his first Trojan game in 1984 for the Daily Trojan. Scott is known as the "scourge of the Internet message boards," according to radio host Petros Papadakis. Despite this moniker, there's no truth to the rumor he takes pleasure in antagonizing the "Internet geeks."
