Does Mick know something we don't?
Is there going to be another last-second East European transfer for the USC Trojans sometime in the next six months? Have Hodge, Pavan, Engle, and Klineman all decided to move to South Figueroa? Seems that way, either that or the SC sports info department is getting ahead of themselves, and of course there's no chance of that ever happening...
Why do we say this, you may ask? Well, head to the women's volleyball page at usctrojans.com, and right up front you'll see a story letting all the Trojan fans know that next year's ('07) Final Four is in Sacramento. OK, that's harmless enough. Sure, the Final Four is 10 months away, and there's zero chance that it'll sell out in Sac City the way it did in Omaha, but nothing wrong with letting the Trojan faithful know about it, right? Because Trojan fans travel so well...
But then:
"USC women's volleyball fans are encouraged to buy tickets now."
Really? Now? Right now? Can they at least stop off and get a half-caff moca...someth--?
"USC will have a squad primed to make a run for the 2007 national championship."
Fair enough. But will there be enough experience on the fl--

OK, OK. But are Haley's frosh the kind of impact players that migh--

And who are these so-called "top freshm--?"
"6-3 middle blocker Zoe Garrett (Laguna Beach/Laguna Beach HS), 6-2 outside hitter Kimmee Roleder (Pasadena/Pasadena HS), 5-10 outside hitter/libero Geena Urango (Los Alamitos/Los Alamitos HS) and 6-4 middle blocker Lauren Williams (Houston, Texas/Stratford HS)."
Sheesh. Fine, fine, USC will be in the Final Four next fall...sorry we asked.
