USC Coach Lane Kiffin announced that two more junior college players and another early high school graduate would enroll in January and participate in spring practice.

Offensive lineman Jeremy Galten of San Mateo Junior College, linebacker Dallas Kelley of Chaffey College and long snapper Peter McBrideof Chaparral High in Paradise Valley, Ariz., will join six other early enrollees that Kiffin announced last week.

Offensive linemen and linebackers were regarded as two of the most important recruiting needs for a team that is coming off an 8-5 season.

USC can count the early enrollees against its 2010 recruiting class. USC is appealing NCAA sanctions that call for the reduction of 30 scholarships over the next three years.
