USC recruit arrested in robbery
Maurice Simmons, a Compton Dominguez High linebacker who signed a letter of intent with USC, was arrested this week on suspicion of robbery. Bail was set at $50,000 for the 18-year-old, Steve Whitmore, a spokesman for the Los Angeles County Sheriff's Department, said Thursday. Lamont Hall, 19, also was arrested on suspicion of robbery in connection with the alleged incident Wednesday, and his bail was set at $50,000, sheriffs' officials said. The alleged victim flagged down a sheriff's deputy after the incident in the 1000 block of Almond Street in Compton. Simmons was the driver, Hall the passenger in a vehicle later stopped by deputies, officials said, and belongings allegedly from the victim and a handgun were confiscated, Whitmore said.

Article says: "a Compton Dominguez High linebacker"
"In 2006, the Morgan Quitno Corporation rated Compton as the most dangerous city in the United States with a population of 75,000 to 99,999, and fourth most dangerous overall." Thanks wikipedia.

Can anyone explain to me why someone is going to a top university for free is going to rob someone? How dumb can certain people be?

I guess he wanted to avoid involving the University next year; seriously, this is crazy. I see kids who are on scholarship at schools across the country who do things like this. I really don't understand it.
He may end up playing at Cal State (I am not talking about the University system) if found guilty. It looks pretty bad.

If USC revokes his scholarship, i'm sure Miami will take him. He can rob the other teams coach during the on the field brawl j/k

This tells me what kind of kids southern cal recruits! I think they should have to pass through metal detectors, then have the local sheriff dep. conduct a wepons check (pat down) before these kids step on the football field.
Congrats, sc you have a winner!!
