Running back Raleek Brown made a big impression in his first game as a USC Trojan last fall. The true freshman scored the first touchdown of his college career and celebrated with a Heisman pose. He also finished the game with a long catch and run that showed his burst and elusiveness. Brown then finished the season with 152 total yards and a touchdown against Tulane in the Goodyear Cotton Bowl Classic. The bookends to the season were indeed impressive. But in between, there were some highs and lows.
