Just my 2 cents though.

He believes he can take the Matt Cassel route and head to the NFL as a back-up.  Also better he gets a degree from SC than some random school.

"Sources" are saying that the NCAA came back to CH Wednesday to question Marvin about some a few receipts he had that were still in question. A few quality posters who have posted solid info this whole investigation are under the impression that two options could go down, either absolutely nothing happens or Marvin will get suspended for a couple games.

So much hog wash is posted in regards to the investigation it's hard to believe anyone. I just want it to get resolved before September 4th. The vibe is that it should end soon, but who knows.

Nope, last year of eligibility.

That Steve Smith story is old.  It was so out of character at the time too.  Same thing with Havili.  Oh well, sucks for TJ.

USC's T.J. Bryant injured after fight

LOS ANGELES -- USC cornerback T. J. Bryant underwent surgery on his cheekbone Thursday as a result of a fight with fullback Stanley Havili.

The fight broke out near the end of a players-only workout last Friday, Trojans coach Lane Kiffin said. The players were finishing a relay drill when an argument escalated into a physical confrontation. Bryant, who was competing for a starting job this fall, is expected to miss three to four weeks. The Trojans open their season in Hawaii on Sept. 2.

Havili, a fifth-year senior, was USC's fourth-leading rusher and No. 4 receiver last season.

"It's very out of character. Sometimes, people show leadership in the wrong ways," Kiffin said. "This was a situation where Stanley tried to step in to get guys to finish without the coaches being there. He was showing leadership to get guys to finish at a level he's used to. My understanding is there was a back-and-forth and some pushing. Obviously, it didn't end well."

The incident is reminiscent of a 2005 fight at USC between receiver Steve Smith and tight end Dominique Byrd that ended in Byrd's missing spring practice because of a broken jaw. That fight erupted while the two were playing a video game.

Kiffin said he's still gathering facts about the incident, which he did not witness. Havili practiced Thursday, USC's second day of fall camp, but Kiffin said he could still be punished for the incident.

"We were all fired up. It was the last workout of the year, emotions were high. You know when emotions are high, intelligence is down," Havili said. "I let it get the best of me and I feel bad about it."

Havili wouldn't comment on whether he threw a punch. He said he and Bryant will address the incident together after Bryant recovers from surgery.

It has been a long string of bad news for USC's program since January, when coach Pete Carroll announced he was bolting for the NFL's Seattle Seahawks. The Trojans are playing this season under severe sanctions by the NCAA, including a two-year bowl ban.

"We stay strong," quarterback Matt Barkley said. "You guys didn't even know about [the fight] and wouldn't even have noticed anything with our team. It's just a little thing and nothing's going to get in the way of our goals." 

Stanley called T.J. out cause he was coasting through one of the drills.  Dumb move to throw a punch over it.

IMO someone needed to crack TJs jaw, just too bad he got hurt.
He is a Lazy bastard who will never reach his potential at this pace.
Athletically and talent wise, he should be top 3 Cornerbacks in NCAA
He has just as much skill as Patrick Peterson. what a clown.

He doesnt get it and hasnt gotten it since he left Tallahassee.
what a Waste!

I got a text about the Landry Jones news.

Idk if it was true, and I didn't feel like trying to validate it, hence the "may".
