If you think USC would get serious probation, I say no way. I suppose it could happen, since it did happen Alabama once and Florida as well. But not likely. Maybe a hand slap, lose a few schollies for a year, miss a bowl for a year. Nothing long term. The NCAA is too scared to come down on big schools, but will bully little schools to no end.

Speaking of SC, this morning Collin Cowhurd was doing a lead-in to a story about USC being investigagted for having a paid consultant on the sidelines during practices and games and that Reggie Bush now admits to taking the $300k loan, and that the NCAA will probably be coming down VERY hard on SC very soon. I had to get out of the car so I did not hear the full report. Anybody hear new allegations against Pete Caroll today?



Would Harvey still seriously consider SC?


This is good news - so the USC "magic" is exposed & broken. What a scam!!!

By the way, Harvey was at the Nike Camp in Los Angeles yesterday, and reports are that he wowed many with his elusiveness and power, and ball catching ability.



The kid looks really strong. Rated the #10 RB nationally as of today.

I believe Reggie Bush's lawyer told the NCAA that Pete Carroll KNEW that the kid's family had been given a house, and didn't report it to USC or the NCAA. That he helped cover it up. Pete has always denied this, but it sounds like the case against the Trojans is now more than damning.

Here's an article about Ryker Mathews, who seems to also be leaning slightly towards BYU: http://byu.scout.com/2/966173.html

You'll remember, he's the kid whose mom called in the Dr. Laura wondering how she could get her son to play football for her religion's university.



Also, here's an article about safety/cornerback/wide receiver commit Jacob Hanneman, who got scholarship offers to play both football and baseball at BYU: http://byu.scout.com/2/966188.html

DAMN!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! Another bites the dust. Let's just hope over the next few years BYU can somehow manage a winning season at least once every three or four years and perhaps a bowl win once a decade. I would be happy with that.


What in hell are you on?

Just chatted with Harv. He said, “My top three schools are BYU, Stanford and UCLA,” and among those three, there's one that he is leaning towards.

How do you pass up playing with your lifelong friends, playing in front of the entire Bingham family that has supposrted you for years, and your family?



I have a hard time believing that he wont' be a Coug unless he's a complete knucklehead...



If you need an idea of what happened to the last poly rb to go to the pac 10, look no further than Stanley Havili, who had a total of 60 or so carries in his entire career and became a glorified 3rd down back and fullback. He ended up with less than 400 yards rushing in his career, didn't serve a mission, etc. etc. etc.





Havili was the last 4 star back that BYU really coveted and personally I think the kid made a huge mistake; ...sure his Trojans won a lot of games (BYU won a lot in that same time span) but he was a near throwaway as a tailback... the position he was recruited as.



I kind of get the Stanford thing, as they showed with Gerheart that they like to run the ball, but Stanford is one of the most up and down programs in the country and we all know that Harbaugh is not going to stick around... he's out the moment the NFL or Michigan/etc. come a calling.

AND WAS NOT DRAFTED


Havili is is a senior this year at USC, and just participated in their spring game. Had a monster game, it seems, too. That kid will get drafted, unless he blows out a knee or ankle this year.

USC stock is falling ... fast. They could turn things around and have a great season but I wouldn't put money on it. I don't think Havili is any kind of lock to get drafted and if USC suffers this year he'll have to have a monster year to get noticed.

I do not see it that way. They still have about 4 years of Pete Carroll recruits in there, so it might take a little while for the snot nosed kid to blow it. With his dad coaching the D, they will be solid there. The talent is there for sure. Just check the recruiting classes from 2006 til now.



Only thing to get USC off the rails will be an NCAA violation that affects their recruiting. A really bad year at USC is 4 losses, and that was with a true freshman QB. I do not see that again this year. They will be really good, in spite of the HC.



And I am no USC fan.

Havili is no faster than Unga and the NFL was telling Harvey he needed to work on his speed. Also, Havili is nowhere near the blocker of that Tonga is and Tonga didn't get drafted as a FB. The USC factor may get Stanley some draft money but I wouldn't bet on it. I also think that the USC years of dominance are over and without a double digit win season, the NFL will start looking less heavily at SC for their talent.

Agreed. The Pac-10 was way down last year (and just plain down the year before) and USC was down in the Pac-10 last year. I don't see that changing this year with a rookie/slimeball HC. Stanford is intriguing and is hard to argue against (except for the being part of the Pac-0) but I still see this as a BYU slam dunk.
