Another interesting tidbit in this article... Matt Cassel was the back-up QB to Carson Palmer and Matt Leinart at USC... He completed a grand total of 20 passes in his NCAA career and never threw a touchdown pass in college.
With your nick and knowledge, I assume you're a fellow Trojan and already realize the following, which I state for others: the Patriots' drafting of Cassell, in light of his nearly nonexistent college experience, simply illustrates SC's incredible depth.
