Based on the LA Times article linked from garvin's article, it seems this is not at all a new thing. Just before the the team Under Stanford Control-Stanford game, the backup kicker switched his number to that of the injured starting kicker.

None of this is suprising of course. Kiffin is a grade-A douche.

From the L.A. Times article:

"Wood, the freshman kicker, was listed as No. 39 to start the season. Then, in the week leading up to the Stanford game, USC's news release listed him as No. 6. But before the game, with kicker Andre Heidari absent after knee surgery, Wood said special teams coach John Baxter instructed him to switch to Heidari's No. 48.
Kessler said it was also Baxter who instructed him before last Saturday's game to don No. 35 for the first half.
"Coach Baxter told me to put it on, so I was like, 'All right. Yes sir,' " said Kessler, adding that he was "trying to look big" like the more burly Negrete. "[Tailback] D.J. Morgan came up to me and said, 'Yeah, you look like a running back.' "
USC makes Baxter available to the media only on Wednesdays. A USC spokesman said Baxter declined a request to be interviewed Tuesday."

So S.C. has a coach in charge of Deceptive Jersey Changes?  And he even has a specific day of the week on which he takes questions from the media??  That's impressive...

Come to think of it, our Deceptive Jersey Changes Coach this season [whoever he may be] has really been doing a terrible job...I can't remember being fooled once!  (Unless, of course, the starting QB for the past few games has ACTUALLY been Nottingham...)  ;D
