Free Scholarships
Seantrel Henderson's departure also frees up a scholarship. So now five exist (Jarvis Jones, Jordan Campbell, Seantrel Henderson, Malik Jackson, Glen Stanley).
I'd say it's time for USC to aggresively seek some mid-year recruits for these scholarships to load up before the scholarship reductions go into effect.
Cheaters never prosper.
Cheat On!
because a ton of guys want to climb on to a sinking ship...
My god you ucla fans are pathetic. 13-9? 13-9? Really? Aren't you guys embarrassed to keep mentioning that?
I said it once and I'll say it again... for a school like UCLA who has such high enrollment standards, you guys sure sound like a bunch of tards!
Can't wait till next year to hear all the tards chant 13-9! 13-9! Hang on to the past tards and tardettes, cuz that's all you guys will ever have.
Its pretty funny that fans of a team that was coached by Rick Neuheisel and hadn't won more than 7 games since '05 (when you lost to SC 66-19) would talk about how "cheaters never prosper" and the willingness of recruits to get on a sinking ship. Kettle, you're black. Regards, the Pot.
You had a trophy presentation for beating Temple, but I suppose if none of your current players were even alive the last time that UCLA won a Rose Bowl you take what you can get.
awwww c'mon, Ma! 13-9 was so sugar sweeeeeeeeet!! knocked those evil cheating trOJies right out of the Natl Champeenship game!!
and Ma, it is very insensitive to those who have learning disabilities or are mentally challenged to use the term "tard".
wolf, i hate to say it but...please ban my mother!!!
AUUUUUUU-WOOOOOOOOOOOOOO!!!!
In my opinion a good decision by Kiffin. Although he is a loss physically, I think it is the best for everyone that he moves on. Even if the sanctions did not occur, he was the weakest commit of the class by far and academically there are many questions. Certainly as a team leader and a morale booster he is not the right fit for USC. He is very impressive on the field, but it was clear he would have taken much, if not all, of that benefit away from the team off the field. So ends the Henderson drama...
My two cents worth...
One last comment; when the going gets tough, the tough don't run away. We have been unfairly treated as all Trojans know. Those with a true Trojan heart and soul will fight for our redemption on the field. Those of us who cannot support our team on the field (the vast majority obviously) should support our team as loyal fans.
USC did not cheat in any way. One player did and made very bad decisions in assisting his step-father. The sanctions were primarily based on bad information as was the loss of our 2004 national BCS title. Reggie did not receive his car in '04, but instead in spring of '05. The car was not a red flag as it was very inexpensive and fitted his economic condition. Otherwise he flashed no money eating at commons with the other players, etc. As for McNair, the NCAA goofed there as well stating he spoke with Lake for 2.5 minutes during the night in '05. The call came in '06 and who really knows what, if anything, was said as the NCAA took the word of a convicted felon over Todd.
Further, a key member of the NCAA team is from Notre Dame who we have constantly beaten over the past decade. They have a new coach and desperately need to beat SC to be considered successful. The conflicts of interest are extreme and should not have been allowed by the NCAA.
We have been unfairly treated to say the least and our players have the USC honor at stake. I hope they all see this as an opportunity to become a truly special team that will be talked about for decades!
well, who wouldn't want that fine education from USC anyway...that's why recruits go there afterall...
Sy, don't worry, i have no doubt whatsoever Southern Cal will be a team talked about for decades! (sorry but not for the reasons you think! tee-hee)
it's easy to think that no one has talked about UCLA since the days of Sam "The Cheater" Gilbert....
UCLA:
LOSE ON!
PURSE SNATCH ON!
BACKPACK SNATCH ON!

Don't worry son. They ban me, I will come back as your father.
And yes, you are right. They won't talk about USC for all the wins and success we have had for all these years. But thanks to the trolls that like to hang around here, we can learn how they have been coping with it for all these years!
See?!? Who says you UCLA trolls are useless.
datrout, are you really this stupid? are you just pretending to be THIS stupid? www.beatSC.com will show you in print a list of 35 infamous traGon football players arrested...after you read it you will come away feeling like a little stink bug being squashed...the backpack incident is like being arrested for stealing candy when you compare FOUR trojans in the Cheat Carroll era being arrested for rape....what a tool!! you must be 12 or 13 years old or just a very naive old fart.

OH YEAH, ONE MORE......
IDIOT ON!
There has been a lot of talk about SC's imminent demise by UCLA fans. I'm sorry that you don't have much to talk about at UCLA. I really liked Dorel and was very impressed with his progress. He beat us once and gave us fits when he lost. At the time they fired him his current recruiting class was ranked #2 in the country by Rivals. It was clear the old rivalry was back and it was fun to watch.
Then the surprise... For inexplicable reasons impossible to comprehend UCLA fired Doral and replaced him with Rick. Rick had no history of success coaching or recruiting. On top of which he had a lot of questionable events to be kind. Since taking over UCLA has degraded substantially and I for one am sad to see it.
You see you cannot win without some talent. Rick cannot recruit quality talent. So far he has recruited only 4 three star and 1 two star athletes. SC has, with all of its sanctions and problems, recruited 1 five star and 7 four star athletes. The team to be wary of is Stanford. Jim year in and year out recruits well and coaches well. He has already gained 20 commitments mostly from 4 star athletes.
UCLA needs to make some choices here starting with finding a decent coach and then keeping him. I cannot imagine what UCLA's AD is thinking but the recruiting numbers will always give a clear indication of long-term success or lack thereof.
I would love to see both teams do well and the nation to be tuned in when they play.
My two cents worth...
Sy my man, what is with the same two posts on each of the last three comment sections dealing with Henderson. You were probably the only one who liked Dorel unless a real Trojan fan who wanted him to stay for our benefit. Wanting the 'ruins to do well is sick no matter what the sport. Not even worth a penny for your thoughts.
datrout more like daguppie.
oh, and looks like Baxter and SC were LYING again, this time about Florida: http://twitter.com/PeteThamelNYT/status/17948212182
I understand Lane lying, but now Baxter too? Like I said when this story broke, it's more likely that Baxter was on the phone TO those schools, not hearing FROM them. Datrout? Calling datrout...? HAHAHA! CHEAT and LIE ON!
and Alabama: http://blog.al.com/bamabeat/2010/07/usc_athletics_director_apologi.html
HAHA - I suppose it's only a matter of time before the other three schools get their letters as well.
LIE ON!
But really, what's the thinking of Lane, Baxter and SC here? Anyone?
sweeeeeeet scooop Sped!!
now let's see what discipline Sith Lord Garrett deals out to this lying player....oh nothing? figures.
Q: how do you know when a trOJie is lying?
A: when you see their lips move!
Oh boy, the hits just keep coming
