LOS ANGELES - Quarterback Mitch Mustain, who went 8-0 as a freshman starter last season for Arkansas, has transferred to Southern California.

ADVERTISEMENT


Mustain, who will have three years of eligibility remaining after sitting out next season, is enrolled at USC for summer school and attending classes, sports information director Tim Tessalone confirmed Monday.

The 6-foot-3, 205-pound Mustain was a prized recruit after completing over 70 percent of his passes in 2005 for the undefeated state championship team at Springdale, Ark. He enrolled at Arkansas along with three of his high school teammates.

In addition, Springdale coach Gus Malzahn was hired as the Razorbacks' offensive coordinator.

After Arkansas lost to USC 50-14 to begin last season, Mustain was made the starter. The Razorbacks won their next eight games with an offense that revolved around tailback Darren McFadden, the Heisman Trophy runner-up.

Casey Dick took over as the starting quarterback in the season's 10th game. Mustain and Dick both played in the Razorbacks' 17-14 loss to Wisconsin in the Capital One Bowl.

Arkansas, the SEC West champion, finished the season 10-4 and ranked 15th in the nation. Malzahn left afterward to join the coaching staff at Tulsa, and Mustain asked for and received his release to transfer.

Mustain completed 69 of 132 passes for 894 yards and 10 touchdowns with nine interceptions for the Razorbacks.

Wide receiver Damian Williams, also from Springdale, transferred from Arkansas to USC as well. Williams will also have three years of eligibility remaining after sitting out next season.

Mustain is expected to compete for the starting quarterback position in 2008 with Mark Sanchez, who completed 3-of-7 passes for 63 yards for USC as a freshman last fall. John David Booty, who passed for 3,347 yards and 29 touchdowns for the Trojans last season, will be a senior next year.

DESTIN, Fla. - Alabama coach Nick Saban said he found it "funny" that reports accusing him of illegal contact with recruits surfaced from Miami, where he previously coached in the NFL.

The Miami Herald and canesports.com, a University of Miami fan Web site, reported last week three South Florida junior prospects described conversations that might have exceeded NCAA rules.

"You really can't prove what you didn't do," Saban said Tuesday at the SEC spring meetings, where he addressed the topic for the first time.

"We respect the rules and certainly have always respected the rules and will continue to do that. And I think it's funny that it came from Miami."

When asked if the reports were inaccurate, Saban responded: "I said I think it's funny it came from Miami."

Saban declined to comment further.

The NCAA limits coaches to "exchange of a greeting" with recruits between April 15 and May 31. The Herald and canesports.com quoted recruits saying they had conversations with Saban about football skills, football camps, unofficial visits and the University of Alabama.

Speaking generally about spring recruiting, Saban said head coaches face "very awkward" situations on the road.

"We had meetings about this stuff, whether head coaches should go out in the spring," said Saban, who supports head coaches being on the road during this period.

"We're put in very awkward situations relative to going into high schools and people come up to you wanting pictures and autographs, and certainly high school coaches want you to meet and promote their program. I think it's really important that one of the things we have a responsibility and obligation to do - is we need to promote our game."
Saban, widely criticized for leaving the Miami Dolphins after two years and saying publicly he would not become Alabama's coach, touched on that topic briefly too.

"Most people in Alabama don't realize what the Sabans went through leaving the Miami Dolphins - some of the media issues created there with us leaving there and going back to college football," Saban said.

Saban, the former LSU head coach, also met for the first time with LSU coach Les Miles, who used an expletive in February in describing Alabama as the school's new recruiting rival.

Asked if there were any harsh words between the two, Saban replied, "About what? I don't have any bad feelings towards him. I can't speak for him, though."

Miles told a Louisiana reporter this week his Alabama comment was caught up in the excitement of recruiting and because Saban went hard after several Louisiana players who committed to LSU. Defensive end Luther Davis de-committed and signed with Alabama.

There were reports during the recruiting season that Saban was critical of Miles and his assistants when talking with Louisiana prospects. Miles said he has no proof of that happening.

Saban said he sells what Alabama has to offer and doesn't recruit negatively against other schools.

"There's certainly a special respect on my part for LSU and the people in Louisiana and the program they have there, that we spent five years of blood, sweat and tears trying to make it what it is," Saban said. "Some people have done an outstanding job of continuing that there, and we respect that as well."

We were all watching the Regionals. I will explain later what that is and how it is more important than an All-Star game.

Best and worst of SEC spring football

Best of SEC spring football

Best soap opera since Melrose Place went off the air — This ain’t Dallas. This ain’t Dynasty. This drama is set in Fayetteville, where they call the pigs — and for the coach’s head — after the defection of two prized freshmen and the disclosure of text messages from the Boss Hog to a female television reporter. Nick Saban may not like the media, but Houston Nutt does.

Best up-and-coming program this side of Lexington — Kentucky earned respect last year. But Vanderbilt returns quarterback Chris Nickson, wide receiver Earl Bennett and a veteran offensive front. That’s good enough for a possible North Division title In the Big 12. Unfortunately, in the SEC East it means Vandy finishes in last place.

Best bet to follow in Florida’s footsteps — Despite Les Miles’ attention to all things Saban, he’s got a heck of a team coming back at LSU. And the current Alabama coach can no longer take the credit for all the talent on the Bayou.

Best bet for another trip to The Big Apple — Arkansas’ Darren McFadden was a Heisman Trophy finalist last fall. This time around he’s the front runner. Last year, he ran, passed and caught passes. Can a dropkick be just around the corner?

Worst of SEC spring football

Worst way to prove Nick Saban isn't under your skin - Go to a meeting of LSU fans and tell them how much you hate Alabama. Go to another meeting and don't mention Bama by name - just relate how you love to beat the heck out of teams wearing red. Les Miles, you've got a lot of winning to do to back it up.

Worst way to prove you're the next JaMarcus Russell - By proving you may be the next Michael Vick. Ryan Perrilloux has an abundance of talent but a lack of common sense. The backup LSU quarterback was suspended for using a fake ID to get into a riverboat casino.

Worst way to show Tommy Tuberville the love - Play Kansas State in the opener. Sub South Florida for Buffalo. Play Florida, Arkansas and LSU on the road. Who made out the Auburn schedule, the Marquis de Sade?

Worst way to stay off the hot seat - Inherit a program with a bare cupboard and the NCAA hammer poised and ready. Watch the athletics director who hired you head for the sunset. Sly Croom's window of opportunity at Mississippi State is closing fast. :shock:

Pretty good little read there... I wanted to read some one liners about Tenn, Ole Miss, and Georgia but I guess they don't have as much drama going on these days.
