I'll play devils advocate here...just my take.
-Malcolm Smith was a USC legacy. All you need is to look at how many legacy players we've lost (read: Crowder, Walker...I'm sure there are a few others) in order to see that the chances of Smith going anywhere other than USC were slim. Add in the in-state factor, and his brother having left USC just a year or two prior and having had an above-average experience/NFL path...
-Sean Parker had at one time said that ND was his top choice, someone correct me if I'm wrong here.
-USC posters think Parker is adamant about checking his OOS options, at the least (if not leaving the state - regardless of B. Moore).
-USC recruiting editor on WEARESC said he believes Sean will visit PSU based on some of the comments he has made.
