Sometimes a story is too good to be true. Could this be the latest example of that adage at work?
USC is opening an internal investigation into the story of senior cornerback
John Shaw saving his nephew from drowning. The story shared by USC's athletics website was inspirational and a touching one. Shaw reportedly suffered a pair of high ankle sprains while allegedly leaping from a second floor balcony into a pool below to save his nephew, who cannot swim.
A day later, USC head coach
Steve Sarkisian says there may be conflicting information regarding how the injury to Shaw's ankles were suffered.
Sark: 'Within the last few hours we've gotten a phone calls contradicting what Josh said occurred Saturday night and we're going to vet it.'

For now, USC is keeping Shaw from meeting with the media until the university can confirm the information regarding the injuries. Follow @KevinOnCFB
