From the LAT.

Apparently, Burfict isn't as high on the Trojans as he once was. According to these quotes, he's looking at programs such as Arizona St., Colorado and Miami as options, possible future destinations. UCLA appears to be in the mix as well, a fact that won't go over well with fans across town.

Burfict having second thoughts comes as somewhat of a surprise, in my humble opinion. USC, after all, has assembled a solid 2009 recruiting class, one of the best in the nation, headlined by Mater Dei's Matt Barkley, Cathedral's Randall Carroll and Patrick Hall from St. Bonaventure.

The interesting thing here is that this story is being reported a week after Burfict said in a Video Report over on WeAreSC that he was still committed to USC but that he was keeping his options open. Personally from that video I get the feeling he is not a strong commit, but thats just me.

This is why I don't get all worked up over verbal commits. This kid will be a stud
and it would sting if we didn't get him. So until the LOI is signed, sealed and delivered you never know what is going to happen.
