It’s playing out like I said.
I said USC wanted instant success and went to the portal. Scored a million points. This makes the defensive woes and got instant talent
both of those put off the inevitable. Building with hs kids and addressing D issues.
result was year 1 became year 3. And the natives were already restless. They brought in Lynn. They brought in hs talent. They entered the B10.
they had some growing pains and bad luck and a 8-4 year became 6-6.
this year we are seeing young talent start to hit the field. OL development paying off. Recruited HS talent all over the O. RB wr TE and OL.
defense has improved. Not perfect but definitely improved. Enough to play w elite established programs like ND and Oregon? No. But good enough to beat quality teams like Michigan. Nebraska northwestern Iowa those are some physical teams
and oh. the nations top ranked class will come aboard next year. Hopefully a few of those will hit the field. I presume 5-10 of them will be in the two deep by this time next year. And in 2027 we will see that many starting and half the class in the two deep. You’ll really see a difference then imo.
9-3 was and is the prediction. Illinois could have been a win. Michigan and Iowa could have been losses. Neb too. 9-3 is a pretty good year for USC and if the future looks brighter then that’s a good building block season
