USC's Josh Shaw suspended indefinitely NCAA.com

CHAMPS

PRESENTED BY USC senior cornerback Josh Shaw came to USC athletic department officials Wednesday and admitted that he had lied about how he suffered his ankle injuries during the weekend. He said that the story he told of rescuing his nephew in a pool in Palmdale, California, was a complete fabrication. He apologized for misleading his coaches, teammates, athletic department officials and the public. "We are extremely disappointed in Josh," USC coach Steve Sarkisian said. "He let us all down. As I have said, nothing in his background led us to doubt him when he told us of his injuries, nor did anything after our initial vetting of his story. "I appreciate that Josh has now admitted that he lied and has apologized. Although this type of behavior is out of character for Josh, it is unacceptable. Honesty and integrity must be at the center of our program. I believe Josh will learn from this. I hope that he will not be defined by this incident, and that the Trojan Family will accept his apology and support him." Sarkisian said that Shaw has been suspended indefinitely from all team activities.
