Statement:
"This has obviously been a very busy, emotionally draining week for me and my family. As many of you know, playing football at Penn State has been a dream of mine since I was seven years old, and I will be forever grateful that this dream became a reality. This is the reason that the decision I have made is so difficult for me: I will transfer to USC to complete my education and my college football career, beginning in the 2012-2013 year. Penn State gave me a phenomenal opportunity to become part of a legendary football program. My teammates, my coaches – past and present – and the staff have provided me with a tremendous amount of guidance and support since I arrived on campus, and I can’t thank them enough for their time, their advice, and their friendship. They have given me such a strong foundation from which I can continue to grow.
The Penn State community – including the Nittany Lions’ unbelievable fan base – has also been a huge part of my incredible experience over the past two years. I have grown tremendously as a person and a player at Penn State, and the support of the community and our fans has been a big part of the reason why. I also want to extend my thanks to the media, who have embraced me and my family over my entire football career, even before I began at the college level. I think it is important to say that this situation is not something that I wished for myself, but it has happened, nonetheless. My family and I have spent many hours in recent days trying to decide what will be best for me as I look to the future – both personally and professionally.
We have weighed the pros and cons of staying at Penn State and leaving Penn State, attending USC and not attending USC, and I can honestly say that, ultimately, this decision is about so much more than football. I continue to have aspirations for my life, and as my family and I considered the bigger picture – both on and off the field – it became clearer to me that USC will be the best fit for my academic, athletic, and personal needs over the next two years. I look forward to future successes, and to the continued support of everyone around me.
Silas Redd Jr."
"this decision is about so much more than football."
Then why leave?

Not trying to pick a fight here as USC knows what it is like to get hosed by the NCAA but we had 6 guys transfer from USC when the NCAA lowered the boom on us. It is unfortunate that you guys are getting penalized for something that involved none of the current players or coaches. It's why the NCAA is dispised on many campuses throughout the US.
All that said, it doesn't make Silas Redd any less a Penn State player because he wants to showcase his talent on a big stage and wouldn't have that opportunity with you guys this year.
Penn State 7x National Champs, home of the winningest college football coach to ever grace a sideline.

this sucks but I will not wish any bad on the dude. He wants to try to compete for a NC and he'll get way more national and NFL exposure at USC than he will here. I'll wish him luck and move on. I'm looking forward to seeing Belton running the ball. Kid is a football player

SR said, "it became clearer to me that USC will be the best fit for my academic, athletic, and personal needs over the next two years." Do they have some kind of Comedy program he can major in at USC because that line about USC being a better fit for his academic future is too funny!!!!!
