Blog Focus: What's the Deal With Joe McKnight and USC?
USC running back Joe McKnight may have piqued the curiosity of the NCAA due to some strange relationships that include his girlfriend driving a very nice SUV.
Bloggers have their say on what the allegations mean for the Trojans:
Dr. Saturday: "His absence from the game would sting much deeper than the loss of his production on the field, because it would suggest there's more fire behind the smoke in the SUV probe than the vehicle's owner, Scott Schenter, would have us believe."
Every Day Should Be Saturday: "So this is all clearly a misunderstanding between Joe McKnight, a reporter, and a VERY IMPORTANT MAN who wants to be NUKE BULLETS TRUMP while keeping a University of Washington Marching Band Van in his driveway and owning the rights to “shaqcancer.com.” Got it. This practically explains itself."
Conquest Chronicles: "Regardless,if McKnight can't go that will give Allen Bradford the bulk of the carries and I would expect to see a heavy dose of CJ Gable as well."
The Big Lead: "In addition to those players, Joe McKnight was also left behind on Monday when the Trojans boarded the team bus. I don’t see what the big deal is though, McKnight can just drive to the game in his SUV."
SportsbyBrooks: "Klein is the USC beat writer for the L.A. Times, so he has to face the team and Carroll every single day. He also assisted on the story that supposedly “ruined” McKnight’s life. Think Klein is excited about that gig these days?"
