Mack Brown calls LenDale White USC’s “forgotten man”. Yeah, I totally forgot about those 1,178 yards and 21 rushing touchdowns. Good call, Mack.

We’ve already reported about SC’s attempts to get ready for Vince Young. But now Fanblogs is reporting that Texas is also using some Reggie Bush stand-ins at their practices.
