    Which means guilty as charged!!!! No way he resigns and makes himself look guilty if he is indeed innocent.

    Wow... Tim Floyd Resigns at USC

    Hot off the presses.

    USC Trojans coach Tim Floyd submits resignation - ESPN

    Tim Floyd, who some think could have been the coach at LSU instead of Trent Johnson, has just sent in his resignation as head coach of USC. There's a lot to this story, but at the end of the day, it's a testament to the very turbulent times facing college coaches especially with the nefarious impact of hoops recruiting and these "one and done" players. Part of this really is also a little bit of an indictment to the kind of coach Floyd is... there has been a tendency here to put him on a pedestal (I was guilty of the same), but in hindsight, you've seen him now leave several programs under different, troubling circumstances. :(

    In any case, it's a good thing LSU ended up with Floyd friend, Trent Johnson :thumb:. It also, from a LSU perspective, probably cuts off somewhat a small pipeline of recruiting interest of LA hoops players to USC, now that Floyd won't be visiting LA as often as a college recruiter. :yelwink2:

    agreed, he probably got a nice severance for keeping his mouth shut also.
