Silas Redd’s Wikipedia page may not be accurate

Found July 30, 2012 on Throw The Flag: Yardbarker Blogger Network
PLAYERS: Silas Redd,  Lane Kiffin
TEAMS: Penn State Nittany Lions,  USC Trojans

I could very well be mistaken here but I’m pretty sure that Penn State running back Silas Redd’s Wikipedia page may contain some errors. The Penn State back is currently being recruited by USC Trojan Head Coach Lane Kiffin. On Wikipedia, his team already lists him as a Trojan. Here is the first sentence to give you an idea: Silas Redd (born March 1, 1992) is an American footballrunning back. Let’s be honest, who knows where he’ll be playing football next season. I’m sure some USC Trojan fans had some fun with this one. The joys of Wikipedia. You can edit anything you want to (before it gets taken down). HT @Bubbaprog and @LisaHorne

  • I've seen PSU lose some of the most highly recruited players in the nation, and it moves on. When Curt Warner graduated, everyone wondered what next. Along came D.J. Dozier. PSU football will move on. I'd like to see Redd stay for him and PSU, but it's his choice.

Penn State RB headed to USC

After days of deliberation, Penn State's leading rusher from last season, Silas Redd, will leave Happy Valley to join Lane Kiffin and crew out West. 

Silas Redd Deleted His Twitter Account

Via Funny Athlete Tweets  |  July 31, 2012
Silas Redd (@MomentOfSilas25) has reportedly deleted his twitter account. This can’t be a good sign for Penn State, as it now looks like he is USC bound. After all, the RB would probably want to avoid looking at his mentions at all cost after announcing a transfer. Thanks to “The Herd” for the tip this morning.  

Done Deal: Silas Redd Transfers From Penn State To USC

Via Football Nation  |  July 31, 2012
Los Angeles, CA (Sports Network) - Running back Silas Redd, who ran for 1,241 yards and seven touchdowns last season for Penn State, is transferring to USC.

Redd Makes Move to the Men of Troy

Via Crystal Ball Run  |  July 31, 2012
Ever since the sanctions handed down by the NCAA just over a week ago there's been a lot of speculation as to who may go and who may stay at Penn State, but no one drew as much attention as Junior running back Silas Redd. The junior running back was clearly the star of the offense for the 2012 Nittany Lions, rushing for over 1,200 yards in 2011. Today he made the rumored...

Say It Ain’t So, Silas…Say It Ain’t So

Via Philly Sports Live  |  August 01, 2012
What’s blue and white, and no longer Redd all over? Ouch. *Pulls knife out of heart. Silas Redd transferred to USC yesterday, a heart-breaker for Penn State. However, it was a tough decision for Silas and I don’t fault him for leaving. Look, how often does a star player get the chance to just switch to another major college football powerhouse in the middle of his career with...

Silas Redd Officially a USC Trojan

Via Football Nation  |  July 31, 2012
USC Trojans football fans can rejoice as media outlets confirmed this afternoon that Penn State running back Silas Redd signed with the Trojans. Following the sex abuse scandal at Penn State involving former football coach Jerry Sandusky, and the subsequent penalties handed down by the NCAA, Penn State players were given permission to transfer to other universities without penalty...

Penn State RB Silas Redd to transfer to USC

Via Fox Sports West  |  July 31, 2012
Depth at running back was a huge concern for USC entering the 2012 season. On Tuesday, the Trojans got a little deeper. Penn State running back Silas Redd has announced his intention to transfer to USC as first reported by The Petros and Money Show on FOX Sports Radio last Thursday. Redd, who will be a junior in the fall and has two years of eligibility remaining, rushed for...

See ya later, Silas Redd. Good luck in So. Cal.

Via The Sports Jags  |  August 01, 2012
Even the ginormous support of 2,500 Penn State fans at yesterday’s Rise and Rally in Happy Valley was enough to keep Silas Redd in Blue & White. The Nittany Lions lost the only offensive weapon they had left from last year as Silas decided to take his talents to So. Cal. Man… Apparently Lane Kiffin is still as good a recruiter as he was in the six hours he spent at Tennessee...

Penn State players defecting en masse

Via The Sports Bank  |  August 01, 2012
Four Penn State players are gone. Redshirt safety Tim Buckley transferred to NC State. He was the first. Then came star tailback Silas Redd who rushed for over 1200 yards last year. He’s now a USC Trojan. Junior TE Kevin Haplea is expected to transfer to Florida State. Only had 3 catches, and 1 TD but was an integral part of their blocking scheme. QB Rob Bolden is transferring...

College Football Updates

College Football Updates By SBRForum.com How will the Penn State scandal and other top stories affect the college football picks for the up-coming season? The NCAA had considered giving the Nittany Lions a four-year death penalty, but once the school found out they held emergency meetings with the committee to come to a different conclusion. In the end, the punishments were still...

Silas Redd may leave PSU, but that’s OK

Via The Sports Jags  |  July 31, 2012
It seems like a foregone conclusion that Silas Redd will be joining Snoop Dogg, Will Ferrell and the rest of the condom crew in Southern Cali. Reports are out that he has visited USC and has spoken with Lane Kiffin, Matt Barkley and Robert Woods, and has really enjoyed his visits – ESPN might as well put Silas on the USC depth chart right now with the way they cover Penn State...

Life after sanctions for Penn State, Jordan Hill and company

Via The Sports Bank  |  July 31, 2012
Defensive tackle Jordan Hill is arguably the best player on the current Penn State team (assuming Silas Redd leaves like he’s rumored to be doing so). Hill was at Big Ten Media Day, so I asked him other than wins how does this team heal? “Being together, being through this.  Going out and just playing football. You know if we just sat there and gave up, we would regret it for...
