Glen Stanley
It’s no big surprise Glen Stanley’s departure from USC is a lot more complicated than other Trojan signees.

My colleague Chris Hays outlined Stanley’s campaign to try to get released from his scholarship, while USC coach Lane Kiffin told the Los Angeles Times he expected Stanley to report to preseason camp “once he has taken care of everything.” That would be the second time in Stanley’s career he was expected to report to a camp once his academics were in order.

Stanley, who was rated a four-star defensive end and linebacker prospect by Rivals.com, has played for four different high schools and colleges (Trinity Catholic High, Vanguard High, Bowling Green and Eastern Arizona Junior College). He has been committed to five different colleges at some point during his career (Bowling Green, USF, UCF, Tennessee and USC).

Stanley (6-2, 245) was supposed to enroll at UCF in January and many within the program believed he would come to the school despite limited contact with the UCF coaches in December. He was enthusiastic when he first committed to the Knights, raving about the opportunity to play close to his family’s home in Ocala and to make an immediate impact. Stanley’s transcripts didn’t arrive in a timely fashion and neither did he. As a junior college commitment who opted not to enroll in January, he was free to explore other options. By waiting so long to sign on with a school, Stanley was in higher demand. He was the best player available to plug holes on a defensive line. He ended up committing to Tennessee and then later followed Kiffin to USC.

Stanley played linebacker, defensive end and tight end as a sophomore at Eastern Arizona Junion College in 2009. He recorded 59 tackles, 20 tackles for a loss, 11 sacks and a forced fumble. He was named to the Super Prep JUCO 100 and All-Western State League first team.

He told the Sentinel he is going to hire an attorney to help him get his release from USC and has had trouble reaching anyone at the school to discuss his scholarship release.

Stanley continues to say Florida State, USF and UCF are potential destinations, but he has not spoken with coaches at the schools and it’s unclear whether the Knights would accept Stanley after he backed out of his last commitment.

Don't worry guys, it's still Kiffin's dream job.

Now he has an excuse for taking a faceplant in the record department.

it would be great to have someone versatile enough to play DE or OLB. Especially if we are really switching between a 3-4/4-3.

while we are on the subject of USC transfers and releases, i figured i would add another.

watching Lane Kiffin lose now is better than watching any of our wins last year, IMO.

any chance on this guy? wasnt his only concern with UT something to do with completing a math course? i wasnt entirely sure what went down with him, but i was pretty sure it had something to do with academics. it does say he is looking at the Florida schools.

Actually, this is the kind of guy that I hope Kiffin gets stuck with. Im pretty sure that he committed to us without ever even visiting K-Town. Hes working on being committed to his fifth different University. Not saying that hes a bad kid, but the constant changing of the mind/bad grades indicate that something is going on. Let him stay in LA.

Agree, even if he could get into Tennessee, which he can't, a guy like that is not really worth the risk. Way too much baggage with him.

Didn't he have issues with grades? I'd say he wasn't too smart to begin with but that's JMO.

Wait if he couldn't get into UT how did he get into USC? They always rave about their supposed academic "superiority" Or did he even make it into USC. I'll hang up an' listen
