[Dienhart] Where have we seen these new recruits before? - Sporting News
Southern California DE Everson Griffen (Avondale, Ariz.) is like Louisville DE Peanut Whitehead. Griffin will goose the Trojans' pass rush--and it needs goosing. A quick first step is what makes Whitehead dangerous. Griffen has it, too. He's the ultimate speedy rusher off the edge.

Southern California LB Chris Galippo (Anaheim) is like LSU LB Jacob Cutrera. Galippo and Cutrera are classic, never-leave-the-field linebackers. Galippo will inject speed, athletic ability and nastiness into an already frightening linebacking unit.

Southern California RB Joe McKnight (River Ridge, La.) is like Florida RB Percy Harvin. McKnight will be dispatched as a pass catcher and runner on the perimeter, where he can work unfettered and go one-on-one with defenders.
