Black Mamba reconsidering?

Interesting football news over the weekend as Crenshaw High's De'Anthony Thomas took a recruiting visit to Oregon. The long time USC commit surprised many by his visit as he's been penciled in as a USC sign for quite a while. This coming so close to official letter of intent day (Wednesday, February 2nd) has the recruiting world buzzing.

Apparently Kiffen has told Thomas he'll play cornerback at USC and he's not happy about it as he'd still like a shot at running back. Could this be a ploy to put pressure on the Trojans by taking the recruiting trip?

With USC scholarship sanctions to go into effect next year (they've been appealing the ruling), this is a big story to follow. SC lost the top rated recruit in the country last year, when Seantrel Henderson changed his mind after the sanctions were announced and instead went to the "U". Can the Trojans afford to lose another top 10 recruit this year?
