Last weekend, USC senior cornerback and team captain Josh Shaw injured his ankles then told the world an unbelievably heroic tale of how it happened. Shaw said he jumped from the second story of an apartment complex, then crawled to a nearby pool to save his 7-year-old nephew, which he did using solely upper body strength. Pretty amazing, right? Oh, except for the fact that it turns out the story was entirely fabricated.
We don’t know exactly what happened yet, but we thought we’d tweak our Excuse Creator, to help Josh Shaw come up with another story for when the times comes.
