Fink staying at USC

CHAMPAIGN — The hunt for a graduate transfer quarterback continues for Illinois. It just won't be Matt Fink, who announced after a back and forth month of changing narratives he would stay at Southern California.

Fink's father, Mike, told the Los Angeles Tribune early last month that his son had committed to Illinois after spending the past three seasons as a backup at USC. Later that same week, though, Matt Fink tweeted that he had not committed to any school.

The end of the saga came Thursday afternoon. Matt Fink announced in an Instagram post that he would stick with the Trojans.
