PrintIs anybody on the academic side paying attention?
So while we have all been riveted on the QB showdown it seems that Joe McKnight has put himself in a bit of a situation.
Why put yourself in the position in the first place. I'm sure that he will work his way back in I guess I am a little surprised that the academic advisors weren't on top of this.
Here is a more complete explanation.
From Dan Weber at the P.E.:
According to Carroll, McKnight, being prepped for the Reggie Bush role at multiple running and receiving positions, is in no danger of being ineligible for the fall. And he's the only USC player with any academic issues in the spring, Carroll said.
More to come I'm sure.

Academic Advisors at fault?
I like PC's statement about there being no other academic issues and that Joe isn't in any real danger. That's good news.
Fight On!
Partly, yes...
Did McKnight have an unrealistic case load? I would think that is part of the job too.
Agree that the player bears the brunt of the responsibility but the advisor's should be there to make sure the class load is realistic.
