Wait, wait...isn't USC "still rolling" in the offseason? If this offseason stuff keeps happening, ESPN may be forced to rank them---gasp---as low as *number 2* in their preseaon poll.

Okay, now I'm getting silly.

This is getting ridiculous. Whole lotta smoke around that program these days, eh?

USC suspends Sanchez after sexual assault arrest
Associated Press

LOS ANGELES -- Southern California backup quarterback Mark Sanchez was released from jail early Thursday following his arrest for investigation of sexually assaulting a female student, authorities said.

Sanchez, 19, was released shortly after midnight after posting $200,000 bail, said Los Angeles County sheriff's Deputy Ban Nguyen.

He was arrested around 4 p.m. Wednesday at an apartment complex near campus, Los Angeles police Officer Jason Lee said. No other details were immediately available.

USC officials said they will temporarily suspend Sanchez while police conduct their investigation.

"The university takes charges of sexual assault seriously," Michael Jackson, USC vice president of student affairs, said in a statement. "Depending on the facts as established by the LAPD, we will determine the appropriate action. In the interim, the student will be placed on interim suspension while the case is pending."

USC coach Pete Carroll said he was aware of Sanchez's arrest and that the Trojan football program would cooperate with police and "follow along with whatever action the university takes."

Sanchez is listed on the Trojans' depth chart as the backup to John David Booty, but was expected to battle for the starting job this fall. Booty practiced only once this spring before he injured his back and had to undergo surgery.

Sanchez, a redshirt freshman, played the recent spring scrimmage and has been practicing with the first unit.

His arrest was one of several off-field problems for USC within the last year. However, no charges were brought in the other cases.

And as we know, Pete normally loves to run his mouth--like that blathering he did during the Bowl Selection Show in '03.

And on his cell phone pre-Rose Bowl this year.

There have now been 11 arrests or investigations involving USC football players since April of 2003. Class.

See what happens when you f*ck with us?

The beat goes on...is something up with Frostee Rucker (other than getting scorched on the winning TD run by Vince Young in the Rose Bowl, that is)?

From PFT.com (yeah, I know):

Also sliding -- possibly off of some draft boards -- is USC defensive end Frostee Rucker. Details are sketchy, but we understand that each team is aware of the specific thing that is prompting his stock to plummet.

Whassup with this, now? What's with all the bad behavior in Trojan-land these days? What, did Barry Switzer take over as head coach at USC or something?

Sanchez is one UGLY dude.... No wonder why he has to revert to sexual harrasment--it's the only way he can get a girl to pay attention to him: with force!
