Details are emerging that obliquely give an indication of who the Trojans bought. From Inside USC:
USC assistant coach Tony Bland was arresed late Monday night in an FBI case where he allegedly took $13,000 for agreeing to steer two players to an agent. Bland was also charged in connection with facilitating payments of $9,000 to the families two players, a “rising freshman” who recently committted to USC and a “rising sophomore.”

In the meantime the USC Athletic Department is "shocked" to learn about this. AD Lynn Swann released the following statement (try not to hurt yourself laughing when you read the part about USC maintaining the highest standards in athletic compliance).
