You sir, are a lucky man. You get a 2nd chance to prove yourself with all the pieces in place, ie., Andre coming back, crazy o-line, defense on fire, 7-3, and on top of the AFC.
I was there and the catch by Leinart happened right in front of me. Great call by Norm Chow who was at the height of his powers back then. Too bad Pete forced him out after the 2004 season because he didn't like that Chow got so much credit (rightly so) for the success of the SC offense. SC probably wins 2-3 more NCs between 2005 and 2008 had Chow stayed on.Poor guy is now stuck with Slick Rick Neuheisel who like Carroll, likes to meddle with the playcalling.
I think there was more to it. I think Norm was mad that he couldn't get a head coaching job in college. If it was just a Pete thing I think he would have taken another college job but he ended up bolting to the NFL before returning to college and almost took the OC job at USC this year before that knucklehead Kiffin decided that he was going to call plays.
The Oakland Raiders did try him as a Tight End, but he has zero blocking skills and he drops a lot of passes. He is strong, but not strong enough to out-muscle linebackers and he is too overweight and slow to be a good receiving threat as a TE. He has no work ethic and showed up to his latest team's (Jaguars) training camp at a rumored 270 lbs. That is too big even for a TE most of the time. He became a worthless player because he got too big headed about himself.
dude i dont mean to be offencive and alll but that mike willams and the mike willams im talking about are 2 different people your talking about the TACKLE "offence lineman" mike willams not the reciver mike willams from USC. your generally right about most of the stuff you put out there tho
I was talking about the WR, but I was wrong on the new team. It was the Titans, not the Jaguars. And he did show up to camp at about 270 lbs. and he is currently listed at 242. A 270 pound TE is huge and most TEs don't get that big, at least not receiving TEs. But he can't be a blocking TE, because he sucks at blocking. Even at 242, he is overweight for his body build and he doesn't run very well at that weight. He should be about 220 to be at his best.
i remember this play, also that bomb leinart threw with that one handed catch was even better. i miss keith jackson. 2003 USC Trojans the TRUE NATIONAL CHAMPS!

Listen bro DETROIT don't kill recievers ...RECIEVERS kill DEtroit ..Matt Millen was know for drafting busts and WRs and LISTEN how do u say DET kill recievers U MUST NOT KNOW CALVIN JOHNSON
This comment has received too many negative votesshow
So how the hell u say we kill Recievers when were producing an All Pro caliber player in calvin johnson ?? Give him a year or two den domination WATCH LIONS HATER
Two words: Barry Sanders. Your lions messed it up long before Millen. Not only did you guys have the perfect season but managed to botch 3 picks at wide receiver until Calvin Johnson fell on your lap. I am going to watch and laugh because Calvin Johnson is going to play for a team who has been rebuilding since Barry Sanders left. And nothing is going to change. Hopefully after 2 seasons he's gone from Detroit and you guys continue to stink up the league, barring a miracle.
No matt millen fucking thought it would be cool to get an overweight wide receiver whom he thought could be someone to match roy williams. Now both roy and mike are out of detroit (along with Charles rogers) and Megatron is the lone guy who looks to be the ONLY guy whose going to succeed out of the 4 picks at wideout.
truly epic. USC 02-05=one of the very best dynasty's in college football history. 06-08 have been solid, but nothing memorable. 11 wins ever year still puts USC as the #1 team of the decade. But, '09 is the start of another amazing streak by USC, guaranteed! USC over florida is the january 2010 rose bowl.
This is a great play even though it was agenst my favorite collage team:( Too bad Mike Williams sucked ass in the NFL and isn't even playing anymore after getting drafted 10th overall in 2005 draft by Detroit:P
Without Chow in 2005, USC averaged a school record 580 yds a game... Sark seems to look good when he has 2 Heisman winners, and 7 All-Americans on his offense.
Well Kiffin called some the plays but Sark is the one with the complex offensive system. He's the one who really did all the work with the quarterbacks and running backs. Kiffin was mainly a wide receiver and Tight end coach.
God isn't that the truth. Too bad Pete Carroll's massive ego couldn't allow for Chow to get credit for the offense and he ran him out of town. The he lets Kiffin and Sark, 2 inexperienced cordinators, run the offense along with Pete putting his own fingers into the mix. Now the offense looks like your typical boring predictable NFL offense. Thanks Pete for killing what could have been college football's greatest dynasty. Wake up and fire some of those yes men you have on staff now.

Roy Williams is overrated
At this stage of his career Calvin Johnson is already better than Roy Williams
Roy Williams only had 1 1,000 yd receving season in his whole time in Detroit. But that's also due to shitty QB play.
