08:18 AM ET 06.05 | Ex-USC quarterback Jesse Scroggins, whose departure leaves the Trojans with Matt Barkley, Max Wittek and Cody Kessler, intends to hit the college quarterback open market. "We're just doing what's in the best interest of my son," Scroggins' father, Jesse Sr., said in a phone interview. "He wanted more control of the situation and this seemed like an opportune time." The 6-foot-2, 210-pound Scroggins, who starred at Lakewood High before enrolling at USC, is planning to transfer to a junior college with goals of playing this season and earning an Associate of Arts degree before transferring to a four-year school with two years of eligibility remaining, his father said. "He'll be a free agent," Jesse Sr., said.

Agree. A smart move really. He still has to show he can do the job, and at least he will get a chance.

Blinn College called, they have a spot open. And they know how to groom a transfer QB for bigger and better things, too.

Actually pointing out that you guys will start UGa's scraps (even with the moniker METTSIAH) is no great thing IMO. ;-)
Who's that #2? Just in case some big nasty rolls up on Mr. Mettsiah's knee? I know some teams can't do well if that happens (cough cough UF cough).

I agree with what he is doing...if he wants to play he needs to move on, but the choice of words was interesting?????
