11 USC players were selected in the NFL draft — the most of any school.
- Reggie Bush – 2nd overall to New Orleans
- Matt Leinart – 10th overall to Arizona
- Winston Justice – 39th overall to Philadelphia
- Deuce Lutui – 41st overall to Arizona
- LenDale White – 45th overall to Tennessee
- Frostee Rucker – 91st overall to Cincinnati
- Dominique Byrd – 93rd overall to St. Louis
- Darnell Bing – 101st overall to Oakland
- David Kirtman – 163rd overall to Seattle
- LaJuan Ramsey – 204th overall to Philadelphia
- Fred Matua – 217th overall to Detroit
What a shame for Matua and Bing.
Tom Malone got signed as a Free Agent by the 49ers. Now he gets to punt to Leinart’s team twice a year for a while.
Bing is the steal of the draft, the Raiders need a safety (Huff should play CB). I don’t like White going to the Titans, that is going to be the future place where RBs go to die.
