USC’s Dwayne Jarrett leaving for NFL

USC’s star wide-receiver Dwayne Jarrett announced today that he’ll be leaving early for NFL draft. Although, everyone at SC would’ve loved for him to return for his senior year and win a national championship. But oh well, good for him. The guy had a phenomenal season.

Along with Jarrett, another star receiver Steve Smith will also be leaving as he’s graduating. But the coming season looks very promising for the mighty Trojans with much of the defensive and offensive squad returning, of course not to mention the red hot John David Booty. I’d be highly surprised if SC isn’t listed as #1 coming into the next season. Sure Florida beat the heck out of Ohio State, but USC pummelled Michigan and LSU spanked Notre Dame. Frankly, Florida’s schedule was tougher than Ohio’s so I kind of expected Florida to beat Ohio, just not in this fashion. LSU’s quarterback JaMarcus Russell will also be leaving for the NFL. He had a solid game against the Irish.

Among other USC Football news, coach Pete Carroll made it very clear that he has no plans on leaving the head coaching job at SC for the Miami Dolphins coaching job. The Dolphins owner met with Pete Carroll in Costa Rica where Carroll had been vacationing. Apparently, Carroll was impressed with the way the Dolphins owner runs the organization. The head coach has the final say in running the team. But Pete Carroll has his eyes set on another USC National Championship. Thank God! We need you Coach Carroll. LA needs you. The USC Trojans are the NFL team for the City of Los Angeles. Rumors of LA getting an NFL team no longer bear any credibility. We’ve heard that a lot. While some team owner steps up and negotiates with the city and brings a team to the City of Angels, the mighty Trojans will remain our city’s team! Sorry UCLA, but you guys aren’t anywhere near as good as SC. Sure, you caught the Trojans off-guard and beat them this season, but watch out for another long streak of SC over UCLA. Even the USC basketball team has been doing great lately. Way to go Trojans!! Fight on.
