From the MSB.

quote:

On Saturday night, USC senior cornerback Josh Shaw was named a team captain at the annual Salute to Troy dinner. For Shaw, leadership is bigger than how he acts on a football field, and he put that to the ultimate test later that night.

While attending a family social function at his cousin's apartment in his hometown of Palmdale, Shaw looked on from a second floor balcony to the pool below and saw his 7-year-old nephew, who cannot swim, in distress without help nearby. Shaw instinctively leaped off the balcony, landing painfully on the concrete below.

He was able to crawl into the pool and ushered his nephew to safety. Despite the intense pain in his legs, he was then able to grab the ladder and lift himself out of the pool with his upper body.


Suffered 2 high ankle sprains.

Love to hear stuff like that. I mean obviously I hate that he got hurt and that it happened in the first place, but that's a man in full.

Looks like he lied. Really went the other direction on this

Hearing now that the story is false. Perhaps he jumped off the balcony to save Manti Teo's girlfriend?
