Here it is...
Thanks to our friends at KCBS-TV in Los Angeles...
The HQ's favorite part of the press conference had to be when Kiffin was forced to address two topics about ten minutes in: the possibility that Ed Orgeron was calling recruits and telling them not to go to class Wednesday and the idea that Kiffin was ((or would)) running a "clean program."
"I don't know if that's accurate," Kiffin said on the idea of Orgeron's phone calls. "The information I have is that it's inaccurate."
Dave Hooker's article from govolsxtra.com reveals multiple sources telling him that, in fact, did happen...
Orgeron acknowledged, later in the day, speaking to several members of the Volunteers' recruiting class, but claimed he only gave them information requested by their families. Coach "O" also said that he would not actively recruit them away from Tennessee.
"We will not [recruit Tennessee-committed players], unless a guy would call us and say he's interested in us," said Orgeron in a statement remarkably similar to one Kiffin said during his presser:
"We're not going to recruit them. If they call me we'll, then, look in to it."
This is the HQ holding its collective breath on that one...
Here's live television flying in the face of what the USC Staff was saying...
