USC has refused to grant quarterback Rocky Hinds a release to transfer to UNLV or any Pacific-10 Conference school. Hinds decided to leave USC earlier this month and was expected to transfer to UNLV. The Daily News reported last month that Hinds was already in contact with UNLV before obtaining his release, which would be a violation of NCAA rules.

Athletes are not allowed to speak to other schools until they obtain an official release from their current university. USC coach Pete Carroll declined comment Tuesday but has spoken in the past about the importance of schools following transfer rules.

Any irritation with UNLV apparently is not limited to Hinds. According to sources, USC also has forbade former cornerback Eric Wright from transferring to UNLV.
