I have it 1 to 1 (without Googling).

LSU: Keiland Williams. USC wanted him pretty bad

USC: Joe McKnight. LSU wanted him pretty bad too.

Others?

I know it's pretty meaningless, just one of those off-season things...

i mean, if you want to look at it from an overall perspective, you can say it's skewed in USC's corner. aside from mcknight, we'll win our home battles...out of state vs. USC is a totally different beast.

i don't even think LSU recruited him, and he didn't have a senior year

Jarvis Jones last year and the whole Byron Moore saga, who probably would have gone to LSU if he had an offer at the end. Ken Norton went after Charles Scott really hard.

Seems like this year there are only a couple. Seastrunk, and maybe Jeffcoat

Jarvis Jones (USC): Tigers were on his trail and really wanted him to be a stud LB for us.

ETA: Chris Davenport: ended it so early by committing to us... but Pete was on him hard very early in the game.

*Byron Moore doesn't count if he didn't have an offer from LSU.

I know USC was heavily involved in the Patrick Johnson sweepstakes (as were UF, FSU, and Miami).
