Getting to know our DC Gary Patterson. Looks like he developed a certain type hybrid 4-2-5 D. Sounds good. But dang, more importantly, C. Patterson needs to get his boys become Xlent tacklers, play physical FB & intimidating D. Be in tip top FB condition. I believe if C. Patterson can get USC into the top 14 D in nation USC will make the CFP… Cheers
Hi Bio is impressive. Looking forward seeing his D and if he fixed it.
PS. The last 3 years rankings for USC D. 2023 Grinch = #119 (dam FU), 2024 and 2025 D Aton Lynn = #45, #42. Good improvement but not good enough. DA Lynn D kept making the same mistakes (giving up big plays and TD’s, could not tackle for sheet, poor LB and DB play all season).
