UPDATE (5:35 p.m.): Get well soon, Sark.


Things aren't going well for Steve Sarkisian this year. There was the reported alcohol-fueled rant at an annual booster event, and now USC — once a playoff contender — sits at 3-2 after a home loss to double-digit underdog Washington.

Sarkisian didn't attend Southern Cal's Sunday practice, leaving many to speculate he'd been sacked. That's not the case, however. 

According to LATimes.com's Lindsey Thiry, Pat Haden asked Sarkisian to take a leave of absence from the team.

At this time, it's not known how long this will last. Eleven Warriors will keep you posted.
