I can not tell a lie, no pun intended, if I was Josh Shaw teammate I would have backed him up or at least pleaded ignorance.
I wouldn’t have done this.
Josh Shaw was aggressively confronted by a teammate in the USC locker Monday morning — with the player screaming at Shaw to “come clean” about the false hero story … TMZ Sports has learned.
We spoke with multiple sources in the USC athletic department who all say the same thing … the player who confronted Shaw — a respected member of the defense — was pissed off because he knew the story was bogus and got right in Shaw’s face about it.
During the confrontation — which occurred right after the initial story about Shaw saving his 7-year-old cousin from drowning was posted on a USC media outlet — the player yelled at Shaw, “Why you lying?”
I have no faith in USC this year, they can’t even help a teammate with an elaborate lie, how can I expect them to there for one another on the field?
