    From same article:

    "
    Junior running back Allen Bradford met for about 10 minutes with Carroll before practice. Bradford complained publicly Monday after getting zero carries in USC's 27-21 loss at Oregon State last week.
    "He understands my frustration," Bradford said. "I'm not sure if that's going to get me more carries.
    "I'm not a selfish player. I'm not going to just go up there and say give me the ball. I just told him what I felt and what was on my mind. After talking to him I felt a little better. We'll see how the game goes."
    USC coaches said they would reassess the four-tailback rotation heading into Saturday's game against Oregon"

    That last sentence should scare the begeezus out of USC fans.
    I can see how Carroll is a great coach, now. Let the players dictate things. That's a GREAT idea!

    Personally, I don't see a problem with him commenting on a recent former colleague whom he mentored and apparently held in high regard who was then treated publicly in a demeaning way. If anything, it's good to see him stand up for an apparent friend.

    Agree he should focus on those "tough" PAC-10 opponents. I saw the RB complaining, too, and that is a potential poison for them:)

    Way to get the spotlight off of yourself coach. Now go and get your team ready to play for once.
