USC receiver
Brandon Carswell was bound for Cincinnati, ready to utilize an exception that allowed Trojans upperclassmen to transfer without sitting out a season because of
NCAA sanctions.
That was last summer.
But after long conversations with his family and Coach
Lane Kiffin, Carswell stuck around — and he and the Trojans are glad he did.
Carswell caught 16 passes and scored a touchdown last season. This spring, he is taking advantage of more opportunities. Kiffin described the fifth-year senior as the "dark horse" of spring workouts, an unsung player who has made a big impression.
