LA Daily News reports that former Nebraska kicker Jordan Congdon is considering walking on at USC.

“He’s deciding about transferring, and giving us strong consideration,” Carroll said.

“He’s trying to get into school as a walk-on.”

USC’s only kicker is junior David Buehler following the death of Mario Danelo and the academic ineligibility of Troy Van Blarcom. But Congdon would need to redshirt next season, having two years of eligibility remaining.

Two seasons ago, Congdon was a first-team freshman All-American after making 19 of 23 field goals, including a last-minute winning kick against Kansas State that clinched a bowl berth for the Cornhuskers. But he was only 5 of 7 in 2006, and he was denied the chance to save the Huskers butt in Dallas with a 47 yard kick to tie.

In related news, Marlon Lucky also considered leaving the team, but was apparently talked out of it by BC.
