LOS ANGELES (AP) USC has sent linebacker Don Hill home from Dallas, where the No. 20 Trojans are set to open the season Saturday against No. 1 Alabama.

The team on Friday would say only that Hill had violated team rules, but a search warrant and affidavit from Los Angeles County Superior Court obtained by ESPN and TMZ say he is under investigation for sexual assault. The documents say it's the same investigation that is looking into USC linebacker Osa Masina, who did not make the trip with the team.

The court documents say Masina and Hill assaulted the woman at Hill's off-campus apartment after giving her drugs and alcohol.

The documents allege that Masina alone assaulted the same woman in Utah about two weeks later.

Neither player has been arrested or charged.
