LOS ANGELES (AP) -Receiver Damian Williams is the latest to leave the troubled Southern California football program, announcing he’s skipping his senior season to enter the NFL draft.
The Trojans’ news release announcing Williams’ departure Friday night didn’t include any comment from coach Pete Carroll, who’s apparently closing in on a lavish deal to take over the Seattle Seahawks.
USC’s string of seven consecutive Pac-10 titles ended in the just-completed season, and the school still is under several years of NCAA scrutiny for alleged improprieties in the football program.
The most recent allegations concern tailback Joe McKnight, who also is entering the NFL draft early, according to the Los Angeles Times.
