Update: Even if Everett Golson does decide to attend Riverside City College for the fall, he would not be playing football, according to head coach Tom Craft.

Earlier: Many Notre Dame fans have been in a state of panic for the past week. Just last Saturday, the university announced that last year’s starting quarterback, Everett Golson, was no longer enrolled in school, as he had been suspended for exhibiting “poor academic judgment.” Golson later stated that he does intend to return to the Fighting Irish after serving his suspension.

Since that point, Notre Dame fans have wondered where Golson will enroll in school for the fall, many hoping that the local Holy Cross College in South Bend would accept him, although the school seemed to indicate that he wouldn’t be joining the Saints any time soon. Then, yesterday, Brad Hoiseth of Rivals.com reported that Everett Golson visited Riverside City College in California this week:

Reliable sources are telling me former Notre Dame QB Everett Golston was on the campus of Riverside City College this week. — Brad Hoiseth (@BradHoiseth) May 31, 2013

It seems strange that Golson would move out to California in his time off — after all, he is from South Carolina, so most people would expect that he would either return home or stay in South Bend. However, it is important to note that his girlfriend actually goes to USC — yes, Notre Dame’s fiercest rival. Nobody but Golson knows for sure if that has anything to do with him exploring school options in California, but one thing is for sure: it has caused Notre Dame fans to fear that they may lose their signal-caller to the Trojans of Southern California.

Here are a few tweets that we found of fans predicting the move across rivalry lines:

So Everett Golson will be playing for USC next season? — Cody Lira (@clira65) May 26, 2013

I wouldn’t mind if Everett Golson enrolled in USC — Kennedy Lewis (@ken_lewis11) May 26, 2013

Everett Golson transferring to USC lol — . (@_ImMichael) May 26, 2013

It wouldn’t be the first time that the Fighting Irish and the USC Trojans have swapped players, however. Current Irish RB Amir Carlisle actually transferred from USC just over a year ago.

We’ll keep you updated as more information comes out.
