...'if he goes we go" ? Not a flame just curious . Who constitutes the local media ?

It is a shame, but not entirely unexpected, that the assembled media would take Ron's side. Maybe they should take a deeper look into themselves, their actions, and accountability for the facts instead of showing support for "one of their own." He's been attacking our program for a long time. Sometimes, he finds a nugget of truth and expounds upon it to try to create some great scandal. But if that's not available, he makes stuff up. It is why I haven't paid a cent to that rag for at least two years now. Sad reaction by all, though, IMO. And sadder still that this incident will lead to a bump in newspaper sales in the coming days.

I thought that was Chad Knauss...

"if he goes, we go"? Seriously? Exactly what principal is the 'local media' trying to defend? Spurrier said Morris can is free to write opinion, just not lies. And I have to question anybody that would attempt to defend him on the basis of the content of his articles.
'if he goes, we go'? Then go, and don't let the door hit you on the way out.

I am curious why you wrote this article?

I read more into this. Something happened between those two this week. Had to have..I don't believe this was a smoke screen over SG. Spurrier has too much experience over that. The local media likes Morris..Corey Miller worked with him in NC. Teddy is a personal friend I think. Then the whole First Amendment deal. Truth is the average USC fan prefers pink eye to Ron Morris. We want a homer most of the time. We want to feel good about our team when we get up in the am. We are sick of folks intentionally trying to hurt our recruiting on key recruiting weekends with overblown hype over personal vendettas. I think SOS finally reached his breaking point. I doubt USC can diassociate itself with RM as it is a State instituion but I bet Hyman and the State's editors have had some heart to hearts today. Should be an interesting ride..It always is around here...

And the world said "who gives a chit what you do Teddy. You are as relevant as naval lint."

For whatever it is worth, Morris says he stands by his story. There are some other members of the media who say they have the same information that Morris does, thus the defense. I don't know the ins and outs behind the Ellington situation and how it all came about.

this..................SOS, and more so, his wife have put in overtime to help Stephen with his issues and to me it has now become protective mode to fend off enemies. I think they should be commended for their actions.
