USC RB Moody Transferring, How 'Bout Washington State?

USC is so loaded at RB that one of their studs, Emmanuel Moody, is transferring. Here is the story courtesy of Fox Sports. He was a 2005 Parade All-American out of Coppell High School in Texas.

If he wants to stay in the Pac-10 and have an opportunity to run against his former team then I say Bill Doba and Washington State need to get on the phone as soon as NCAA rules allow. He would have to sit out a year, but that's a good price for a running back of his caliber.

Moody is from Texas, where the Cougars do a decent amount of recruiting. The WSU roster is littered with other players from Texas so he would have many fellow Texans to hangout with. The Cougars need a RB next year, it seems like a perfect fit. I know that LA and Pullman are complete opposites, but the opportunity to score TD's against his former team has to be appealing.

Here is his high school bio from Scout.com

And here is his USC page from USC's offical athletic website.
