The misadventures of USC running back Joe McKnight continue. The sophomore from Louisiana spent Sunday night's practice on a golf cart, wearing a near full-length brace on his right arm. McKnight suffered a hyperextended elbow in the Trojans' scrimmage at the Coliseum the night before Coach Pete Carroll said. McKnight's latest mishap came only a few days after he injured two fingers, including a slight fracture at the tip of one, when a teammate accidentally closed a dormitory door on McKnight's right hand. McKnight sat out parts of a few practices after that mishap. He was previously sidelined because of a skin irritation.

The Trojans will be fine. They have quality players 3 deep.

You're right SEC, but I'm sure their fans prefer J. McKnight off the golf cart.

As long as McKnight is on a cart and not on the field Iguess LSU is feeling not be bad

Hey USC fans, do you remember a camp in the last 10 years seemingly as snakebitten as this one for our Trojans? Does it really mean anything though?

USC, how the mighty have begun to fall. These guys are just slowly falling apart, which is to be expected. You can't be the best for ever...it's just a matter of time.

Sounds like he has had a streak of bad luck. I'm sure he (and the Trojans) will be fine!

August 18, 2008  12:10 PM ET

Sanchez and McKnight will both be fine for the big one on Sept 13th. Should be a war! Can't wait to see it!

August 18, 2008  12:20 PM ET

It's TAILBACK U!!! There's no need to worry.

August 18, 2008  12:48 PM ET

I hope they didn't let him drive the golf cart!

Probably not, Keith....i'm not a USC fan, but damn, they have some talented teams. Like previous post on here, they are very deep at RB.

Sept. 13th is coming. So are the Bucks!

August 18, 2008  01:35 PM ET

Stafon is the man. So is CJ. Bradford too. We're fine. Let's just get the OL healthy so Corp/Mustain can have some time to throw.

fear the vest fear the vest, yeah we heard you, we get it.

OH WHAT? SC all the way!!

August 18, 2008  02:56 PM ET

Ohio St. will not be number 2 in the AP polls after week #2.

August 18, 2008  03:00 PM ET

OSU chokes in big games...we've all witnessed that the past two years. I don't expect much from the Buckeyes under the lights at The Coliseum

This is a none issue. He'll be fine by the time the season starts. Why aare we getting an account of every hangnail in California?
