USC Limericks!

Sneaky Pete, Reggie, Joe, and OJ have given us plenty of fodder. Here are a few, admittedly rather poorly done, to get things started. I am sure many MGoBloggers can do much better!

There once was a coach in LA
Who got players by offering pay.
But someone did tattle
So he went to Seattle
Being chased by the NCAA.

Now this team has many believers
With good backs and lots of receivers.
In need of a coach
They first tried to poach
The fellow in charge of the Beavers.

The head Beaver said "No, I'll stay here
In Corvallis, which I hold so dear."
So now, left in the lurch,
They continue to search
While their fans all cry in their beer.

Now Sneaky Pete, the fellow who quit,
Has not even taken a hit.
He left his problems behind
And managed to find
A new gig where he's paid quite a bit.

So as Troy weeps, the rest of the nation.
Is overcome with general elation.
Play the game by the rules
Or in the end you'll be fools
Spending some time ON PROBATION.

Next, please!

There once was a great Man of Troy,
Whose football teams brought him great joy
But while he was beating
Other teams, he was cheating
And he found himself out of employ.

With gifts of houses and cars,
A crook of a coach,
Our players would poach,
But now maybe theirs will be ours.

There once was a man named Pete Carroll
Who cheated his school into peril
He threw out some cash
And screwed some grad ass
Now he better hope that he's sterile.

USC's ex-golden boy
Used Seattle to get out of Troy
He'd cheat to get Bush
And graduate tush
Now Paul Allen has a new toy.

We're all sick of his malarkey

Here, this one's in honor of what appears to be USC's big hire:

There once was a team with a stain
USC's problems were plain
No one wanted to work
Under sanctions berserk
So they found someone wholly insane.
