Looks like we are not the only school bit by the injury bug.
From CNNSI:
LOS ANGELES (AP) -- Southern California tailback Hershel Dennis, who entered spring practice No. 1 on the depth chart, has torn ligaments in his left knee and is expected to miss the 2006 season.
Dennis was injured in practice Tuesday, apparently trying to cut on the wet artificial turf at USC's Cromwell Field. An MRI taken Wednesday night revealed the damage.
The fifth-year senior tore ligaments in the same knee in December 2004, had surgery the following month, and sat out last season. USC coach Pete Carroll said after practice Thursday that the school would look into applying for a sixth year of eligibility for Dennis. A date wasn't immediately set for surgery.
Dennis started every game as a sophomore in 2003 -- ahead of then-freshmen Reggie Bush and LenDale White.
