Saw this article this morning and it made the Hill info sound like new news. I coudln't remember if he'd left Zona for USC or USC for Zona.  They made it sound like he'd just left the way I read it.

Oak Hill Academy star Lamont "MoMo" Jones became the latest member of the Southern California basketball program to abandon the Trojans when he asked for and received a release from his letter of intent.

USC announced late Thursday that Jones had received a release, which came two days after coach Tim Floyd resigned his position. A native of New York, Jones is 6-0, 175 but is considered more of a scorer than a point guard. This is the third time he has vacated a commitment to a college; he committed to Louisville and Virginia Tech before signing with USC.

Jones is expected to consider Arizona, Memphis and Florida in searching for a new college home.

Jones joins forward recruits Solomon Hill and Noel Johnson in accepting releases from the Trojans as the result of turmoil in the program resulting from the investigation into former guard O.J. Mayo's amateur status. The team also lost forwards Marcus Johnson, DeMar DeRozan and Taj Gibson and guard Daniel Hackett to the NBA draft.
