I just read an article that said as a summary....that USC's non-stoppable recruiting has caused the destruction of all the other pac-10 teams & in turn has hurt itself in the BCS standings because it's conference SUCKS!!!!

This is very interesting to me...because I understand & somewhat agree that this could be the case of what has happened to the pac-10.....it is a good arguement!!  I am always amazed that theseplayers who would be starters on any other team...sit on the bench @ 2nd or even 3rd stringers on USC!!!!  But my own opinion is that it takes a SPECIAL Person to know that he could go somewhere else & be a star......but they choose to fight with the best & learn by having to compete for their spot everyday with the very best!!!!!!!  

 But, on the other hand.......Shouldnt the pac-10 teams be held accountable for their own recruiting!!!   There are always AMAZING players from all over the country that dont get to play...it seems we always have NEW / GREAT talent that comes up & takes the place of those who have gone before!!    FIND THEM!!!!!  CULTIVATE THEM!!!  Even average players with a lot of heart & determination can become GREAT players!!!  

What I like about Coach Carroll is that we "win forver" ...... I think his philosophy is to teach great fundamentals of life on & off the field & even when we lose!!!! ha!!  I'm sure the team is dissappointed with their rank...but tough **** said the kitty when the milk went dry!!  You cant control the pac-10 or any other team or conference...or even the polls or the BCS computers!!   What you can control is your work ethic..........& I refuse to believe that coach carroll intentionally wants to hurt anyones recruiting chances!

 It's only about 4 more weeks in the reg season....good luck to everyone's teams!!!
