only Kiffin...
I was looking at ESPN (forgive me) and I saw this article about a 13 year old commit to USC (this means he can sign in 2015) and I knew it could only mean one thing: Kiffin.
The backlash following Sills' commitment has been severe. Most of the criticism has been directed at USC coach Lane Kiffin for offering a scholarship to a 13-year-old, Sills' father for pushing his son into the limelight and personal quarterback coach Steve Clarkson, who has pipelined many of his star pupils from Matt Leinart to Matt Barkley to USC over the years.
I'm going to tell my wife that when we have a son I don't want Lane Kiffin and his guys recruiting anywhere near the new baby.

Don't worry, Canada is not exactly a recruiting hotbed for SoCal.

First search engine entry for "Bobby Knight Damon Bailey:"
HOOSIER DAMON BAILEY IS A HOOSIER AT LAST - 11.19.90 - SI Vault
He was 14 very delicate years old, and right there, in a million-odd copies of this book about Indiana coach Bob Knight, were the words of no less a judge of basketball talent than Knight himself: "Damon Bailey," the mentor told his assistants, "is better than any guard we have right now.

The NCAA will either set up camp in his back yard and USC will eventually be hit with 5000 years of probation, OR he will be the death knell of that ersatz governing body.

This is the correct answer. The only thing more toothless than the NCAA is the Democratic Party.

Is there no search functions in the great white north?
