      I wonder if Husan will play at all in the Bowl game. I mean why showcase an unsigned player? Unless Riley wants to do him a solid. Also TE Olsen and Tabaracci are unsigned but Tupou and Matthews are, with Bowman and Jefferson coming in.

      QB Husan Longstreet
      TE Joey Olsen
      TE Carson Tabaracci
      OL Aaron Dunn
      OL Alex Payne
      OL Elijah Paige
      OL Alani Noa
      OL Elijah Vaikona
      DL Jide Abasiri
      LB Ta’Mere Robinson
      DB Alex Graham
      DB James Johnson
      K Caden Chittenden

      *Cash Jacobsen has re upped.

      Great to see Cash in the fold BB. I’m surprised to see so many OL unsigned, though you posted earlier of Noa possibly portaling. We have to sign Graham. Graham was enamored with Oregon when he arrived at SC, so a little worry there on my part. Thanks for the update.

      As a guess, I’m thinking the coaches are counting heavily on Pepe and Killogay(sp) as possibe starters. Surprising to see Payne and Dunn on the list, and I like Vaikona too, so hopefully this is temporary. Maybe some of this is due to what happens with Hanson.

      Money must be the issue?  Looks like USC is playing hardball with their asking prices.  Things have gotten ridiculous.  How can any HC & GM maintain a healthy roster.  Every year, players want more moola.  Players no longer think team first, it’s all about their bank account and check book.  It’s really sad…  Cheers

        Agree Butkus but there are quite a few other factors in play this year that we don’t get much input about.  I don’t like the new system at all, but it is what it is, and these kids no longer have a love for their school.

        Bruddah GTrojan, it’s tuff as fans to get excited with a top HS recruit because we know they could be only at USC for short stint.  The TP is one Mother F to deal with as a HC and GM.

        I think C. LR and GM Bowden should copy C. Kiffin TP model.  C. Kiffin has used the TP as a Art Form.  Heck, C. Kiffin is a Master at shopping the TP and managing his roster.  He plugs in holes, but many of his TP players after one year moves on to the next team.  Heck, C. Kiffin just regroups and shops the TP hard and plug in the holes again.  Seems like he does not lose sleep when his top players leave after a short stint at Ole Miss.  I’m sure he will continue this process at LSU…

      That is too many. Especially with the loss of Lyons. And a couple others I thought were worth keeping. Not sure what Bowden has in mind. It’s possible he’s planning on o buy a few guys he things are better and has analytics to back it up. Personally I think if you have kids on the roster and you didn’t ask them to leave then that means they can play and you should build them up. I don’t want to question the guy but I’m questioning this
