| Former Arkansas quarterback Mitch Mustain plans to transfer to USC in the second week of May, sources close to the quarterback said Wednesday night. Mustain has attended USC's spring game and practices and is currently attending classes at Arkansas, where the semester ends May 8. Mustain, considered by some the nation's top recruit before last season, enrolled at Arkansas in large part because coach Houston Nutt hired Mustain's high school coach, Gus Malzahn, as offensive coordinator. But Arkansas didn't utilized Malzahn's no-huddle, spread offense and he left for Tulsa, where he'll be co-offensive coordinator. Mustain, who was benched at the end of last season, then announced his intention to transfer. Arkansas won the SEC West last season and began 10-1 before losing the final three games of the season. This week Nutt released a statement denying rumors he was pursuing other jobs and did not promptly respond to hate e-mail sent to Mustain. He also denied a rumor that he had an affair with a local television anchor. Joe Schad is a national college football reporter for ESPN. |
I thought that this was prett interesting. He was a top recruit coming out of High School and now he could possibly be on the bench until his senior season.
