Innocent until proven guilty. Except in the fishbowl court of public opinion that SC finds itself in as the pseudo-NFL team of LA and the king of college football. Sounds like another ex-con creating a situation from which to self-benefit, just like the Bush case. The Forde's of the world rush to judgement with incendiary attacks to draw attention. It's a fools game of hype. Keep your chin up, OJ, and get rid of Guillory for goodness sake.

Why on earth would OJ need to "get rid of Guillory" if, as you seem to suggest, he's done nothing wrong?
Also, if you are going to question Johnson's character because of his past transgressions, why not question Saint OJ as well? You know, the kid that was popped by police outside a known drug house and that shoved a referee during a HS game?
Poor Southern Cal. The big bad media is always making you look bad just because your teams utilize paid athletes.
Here's an idea--have your compliance office actually peek in on these kids once and awhile to make sure they are "complying" with NCAA rules.
