RipsIt reader Kevin Smith e-mailed in asking about the "I'm In" sign the Trojans use for road games: "The 'I'm In' sign that was pictured on the road at OSU and UW seems to be autographed. Who signed it and why?"
The sign, utilized only for away games since the "I'm In" sign at the Coliseum is part of the wallpaper, is actually the original one from Coach Carroll's first season in 2001. Two years ago, it was autographed by USC legend Ronnie Lott, who also signed "Bring the ass," which is a saying that teams from Lott's time used.
The "I'm In" sign used for road games features Ronnie Lott's signature and "Bring the ass," a saying Lott's Trojan teams repeated during his playing days.
