Title: USC player sues school, Kiffin
Post by: bama57 on September 23, 2014, 05:51:21 AM
LOS ANGELES (AP) -- Former Southern California cornerback Brian Baucham is suing the school and former coach Lane Kiffin, alleging he was forced to play in a game while ill.

A law firm representing Baucham, AgnewBrusavich, said the suit was filed Monday in Los Angeles County Superior Court.

Baucham claims he suffered ''cardiopulmonary damage'' and ''brain injury with neurocognitive deficits'' after he played against California at the Coliseum on Sept. 22, 2012. Baucham's lawsuit claims he was ill and dehydrated before the game, but was ''forced'' to play by Kiffin.

''USC and head coach Kiffin were clearly negligent and acted with conscious disregard for Brian's welfare and safety by forcing him to play ... despite his verified medical history and seriously ill condition,'' said Bruce M. Brusavich, Baucham's attorney.

Maybe his degree was in mental illness.   :dunno:

Sounds like a lawyer searching for a payday.

Kiff's past is going to dog him for a while; probably a few years.  That's why he needs to stay as OC at Bama to rehab his reputation.  In time he will be looked at more for what he accomplishes at Bama and less for what is in his past.

I agree. That's sound advice.

I can remember a time when this kind of news we would have been all over it making fun at CLK. Isn't it funny as time can change the way you think? I see a lot of warm hearted guys stepping up to the plate here to defend the same person. I love this game and you guys. rofl, RTR!

True, Preacher. I was one of the biggest skeptics about Kiffin coming aboard. He's kept himself humble and is working hard to make this the most prolific offense that Bama's ever had. He's won me over.

I think CLK is thinking the same thing.
