USC Fans Handling Dakota Fields Flip to Oregon...Just....FINE
Speaking of cheating. Several ones have gone on at USC. Reggie Bush Gate for one: In the University of Southern California athletics scandal, the University of Southern California (USC) was investigated and punished for NCAA rules violations in the Trojan football, men's basketball and women's tennisprograms.[1] The sanctions were announced on June 10, 2010, and affected the USC football program from 2010 to 2012. Sanctions for the football team included postseason bans (2 years), scholarship losses (3 years), vacating old games (including a BCS Championship game), and disassociating with Reggie Bush. Separately, Bush returned his Heisman Trophy. USC head coach Pete Carroll also left USC shortly before sanctions were announced. Another: "Operation Varsity Blues" redirects here. For the documentary film about the scandal, see Operation Varsity Blues: The College Admissions Scandal. Varsity Blues scandal Duration 2011–2018 Venue United States District Court for the District of Massachusetts Location United States Also known as Operation Varsity Blues Reporter First Reporter - Julie Taylor-Vaz Organized by William Rick Singer via Key Worldwide Foundation The Edge College & Career Network Accused 53 Charges Felony conspiracy to commit: • Mail fraud • Honest services mail fraud • Money laundering In 2019, a scandal arose over a criminal conspiracy to influence undergraduate admissions decisions at several top American universities. The investigation into the conspiracy was code named Operation Varsity Blues.[1][2] The investigation and related charges were made public on March 12, 2019, by United States federal prosecutors. At least 53[3] people have been charged as part of the conspiracy,[4][5] a number of whom pleaded guilty or agreed to plead guilty. Thirty-three parents of college applicants were accused of paying more than $25 million between 2011 and 2018 to William Rick Singer, organizer of the scheme, who used part of the money to fraudulently inflate entrance exam test scores and bribe college officials.[6][7] Of the 32 parents named in a Federal Bureau of Investigation affidavit filed in U.S. District Court in Boston, more than half had apparently paid bribes to have their children enrolled at the University of Southern California (USC).[8] Looking forward to this game In November! Part of our trip flying back home to visit family, we'll be attending this game in person! Go Ducks!
