ParticipantSure has been quiet since we lost in our efforts to get Peyton Houston ( to LSU) months ago. It looks like we are passing on a big name ‘27 QB and are looking for a guy that won’t scare Jonas Williams away or just as likely someone cheaper than the $ a big name would require.
4 star Huntington Beach QB Edmunds will be parting ways with Ohio State soon but USC is not likely to pursue him. I haven’t heard any possible destinations for him yet. But I’m wondering if UCLA given their current hot streak, will give it a shot at flipping him.
Back to USC, they have invited a Southern California quarterback prospect back to campus, Dan Weber who is still trying to earn a USC offer. Weber wants to commit to someone soon. UCLA is in the mix.
USC has also invited a couple of other guys to come to campus and throw for the opportunity to earn an offer, but none are big names. No sense of urgency by the coaches to bring in a big name tells me they have someone in mind for the next recruiting cycle.

ParticipantIn all respects Bruddah Balls, Dane Weber and his parents should just eliminate USC and C.LR. C.LR slow play was all bad. There are 15 top FB schools after Dane like a hot potato and showing him da love. Weber has a top 8 and USC is not dat list.
I really do not know why C.LR is focking around with the 2027 QB class; there’s no ? USC needs to get a top QB. Anyway, dat’s my gripe for dis nice Sunday. Happy Mother’s Day… Cheers

KeymasterYeah, the idea that they don’t need a QB? Hello? 2028 QB in mind? Wonderful.
That means after this year they go into next year with Jonas Williams. Huard, their mulligan this year, is gone. Maiava is gone. And 3 isn’t a very deep QB room, and now becomes 1.
I don’t know what the (*&#$ they are thinking honestly.
The only thing I can figure is that they have back room assurances from kids at other programs that they’d love to come to USC if USC will let them portal next year. OR that kids committed to other schools for 2027 have told USC they will gladly flip if USC still has an opening come signing day.
Because otherwise, this make absolutely no sense and I have to believe Bowden is smarter than this. Crap, Riley is the QB guru, he has to have a guy or 3.

ParticipantBruddah Java, I mentioned your theory in another post. Yeah maybe C. LR is trying to flip a top QB already committed and feels confident. But, why dick around Dane Weber? I’m Dane’s dad, I would tell C.LR go fock off. Dane is one hell of a QB; he has all da tools and skills. Most of all he has Mojo and Moxie and da Eye of the Tiger. Kid is a winner and a great leader.
Shoot, if UCLA lands Weber, not looking forward playing against him… Cheers
PS. Kinda disappointed with GM Bowden as well. Why didn’t he just over ride C.LR and make Weber or Caden Jones an offer. Jones would be a nice fit as well.

ParticipantFrom what I heard regarding Weber is the price tag has gone up. Cal and UCLA in the mix but it’s going to take writing a big check.
UCLA definitely is trying to flip Brady Edmunds from the Buckeyes with Dean Kennedy recently making a in house visit. Both QB’s have made several unofficial visits to the campus. We will see but I’m starting to lose confidence regarding Weber coming. Hope he proves me wrong.

Keymasteras they apply to you and Butkus.
look around the country of the number of high school quarterbacks that came to a school took a check for $1 million backed up for a year and then screwed their school in the you know what
look at what longstreet did to USC he was one of many there have been articles written in the last year about how the class of 25 quarterbacks came to school for a year and then they all left.
why pay 1 million bucks for a back up who’s not gonna stick around? it’s worth it if they signed a three-year contract they can’t get out of. it’s not worth it. It’s the kid sits on the bench hands the ball off three times this year and then transfers after the year is over with 1 million bucks in the bank
I am guessing that if Williams sticks around for 2027 and Dunson turned into holding USC hostage for the position financially I’m guessing USC goes and gets like the starting quarterback at North Dakota or the third string guy at Michigan State and he backs up for a year either for the price of a scholarship or $100,000
and then USC recruits a high school guy. for the class of 2028 to come in and sit for a year or two behind this Williams dude who by that time is probably on his way out
still this sounds very thin at the quarterback position for me, especially since this is a position where guys often get hurt. UCLA has had several injuries at quarterback the last few years
and before Caleb Williams came, USC had a revolving door of injured quarterbacks from dart to Slovis to the kid who didn’t like to play quarterback very much but his dad wanted him to and he played it about six schools in five years or something JT something
