Here is USC’s depth chart. The most interesting decision for me is Chris Hawkins listed as the starting strong safety with Leon McQuay at free safety. Full chart after the jump:

I think Rush End will be a rotation of Felix, Ruffin, and Gustin. Felix has a lot to prove and will need to do it fast with those two right behind him.
Marshall will be on the field a lot.
I think we’ll see rotations at a few spots. The DL will have a 5-6 man rotation. We may see a group for certain situations. Faster against the spread and bigger against power. We have the personnel now. Porter Gustin will come in on 3rd and long with the nickel in passing situations. Biggie and Langley will see playing time early.
I agree. And many other websites seemed a little surprised to see Gustin at third string. But I still think that spot is not solid with Felix and will be rotated. The DLine is a good spot to get some inexperienced guys some good work in the first two games with them rotating. Biggie is ready for the College game. He and Gustin have work ethics that are unmatched at the moment by the other freshman and they’re hard work is gonna show up during the games. For the record I hope Felix proves me wrong.
Connelly should put himself in his Doghouse..Seriously! And I’m sure he will find some fall guy to blame his deficiencies on, because that’s what weak coaches do.And Zach Banner made strides under Tim Drevno, so it’s obviously not him, it’s the clown that has a LONG track record of being fired.
I hope you are right about Banner. A lot of people say he is a big mouth and it gets him into trouble. But I’m with you on Connelly. This sounded like a terrible hirer. I believe he gave up something like 45 sacks his last season at Oklahoma St. So he better bring his boots to work or he’ll be gone quicker then Sark. Stanford and ASU’s physicality will test our OLine and Connelly.
Tim Drevno had that offensive line running on all cylinders, but he couldn’t wait to jump ship , because he realized He could no longer coach under Sarkisian. And believe it or not, they grew up together in the Torrance area ..lol
someone needs to better format that list so it can be easily read. Take the email addresses and majors out for a start.
Sorry, too much work.
You can not format a copy and paste blog
He should have typed it in then.
Any mention of the Head Coach position on the depth chart?
LOL!
Plattenburg….fighting for the second string spot against the much feared ‘LOPES’ walk on….and 3rd teamer, Falah….were both UCLA commits before going to the dark side….
CONGRATS……to both of you and to all torgans…
Eddie Vanderdoes, Eldridge Massington, Kylie Fitts, Jordan Payton were all Trojans at one time in the same class. Thank your lucky stars that a bad season, 10 less scholarships and Fitts high school coach badmouthing the Trojans that helped UCLA land players we couldn’t take. Vanderdoes is probably the exception. You can thank Ellis Mccarthy’s dad also for forcing him to be a Bruin over the Trojans.
But you know they would’ve and should’ve been Trojans. So thank the good lord! Don’t act like you steal players from USC because you’re dreaming! LoL!
FIGHT ON!
Dodger’s no-hit a second time within 10 days by the same Cub’s pitcher.
Why does Mattingly still have a job. Compared to Mattingly, Sark is Knute Rockne.
Drinking again, Rents? The Astros no-hit the Dodgers earlier this month…have another, Rob
Gosh I guess your trivia changes the fact the Dodgers were no hit twice within 10 days.
Who might Rob be? Sounds like you’re the one in need of an eye opener.
What fantasy character are you impersonating tonight? – Charlie Chan’s #2 son.
Facts are facts – btw, pretty pathetic impersonating the lowest troll on here with your “fantasy” riff…better go have another, it’s early still
He knows you, I don’t, thankfully. The old adage – where there’s smoke there’s fire – applies in your case.
Personally, politics aside, I believe 22’s description of your life style is true. I rest my case #2.
That thing knows me like it knows intelligence. And yes, I agree, your case as laid out is equivalent to #2.
Yawn.
The Nerd is drinking after losing once again at the Ventura Fairgrounds Saturday night.
The Gee Nerd thinks only he is allowed to impersonate fanatsy characters.
If Matingly doesn’t get to the WS or a showing in the ALCS he’s gone. It looks like he should start trying to sell his house.
Donnie Dumbbell. i have even heard Vin Dawg criticize some of DonDum’s moves….THAT’S how bad it is…..Vinnie has NEVER criticized a coach in all the years i’ve listened to him and that means since he’s been in LA!!
#DumDonMustGo
This Dodger team is big time inconsistent. At the same time Mark McGwire can also be blamed for their hitting woes. Plus Two Starting pitchers go down for the whole season and Matingly has no bullpen. Matingly fu**s up a lot but this team has lots of holes.
Can’t blame Trojan alum McGwire for the Dodgers management letting good hitters leave.
woulda, coulda, shoulda…….needs to replace ‘fight on’… excuses, excuses and more excuses….fitts left south central because goat boy lied about scholarships…..vanderdoes NEVER really considered you boneheads…..jorday payton was interested in just about every major school….and finally came to his senses narrowing his choices to Stanford and UCLA…..and you tools backed off Massington and recruited over him…You can keep 3rd stringer Plattenburg and Nico Nada…..Here’s to 2-2 after the first four games….
fite ung
Somebody was angry in the middle of the NIGHT!
They aren’t Trojans until the sign a letter of intent. Kids make their decision for a number of reasons. Some get away, others are a blessing in disguise. Massington went to a camp the coaches ask him not to go to and injured himself. They told him he needed to find another school. EV was a domer, then he transferred to the ruins. That class fell apart. The biggest loss was Ramsey. You nailed Fitts, he’s off the team now isn’t he? Payton made his choice, meh.
Vanderdoes was turned off quickly by our horrible season. Ramsey was a Trojan for sure, but Kiffin fired our DB coach and that rubbed Ramsey the wrong way. And to be honest me and a lot of others didn’t want Massington.
Looks like a bunch of winners here!

Looks like a bona fide third place Pac-12 SOUTH FB team.
Your right, but only because of the head coach, because if Pat Haden would have hired a championship caliber guy, USC would have dominated the Pac12 with the talent they have.
You must realize if Nick Saben were coaching that troll would carry on with his drivel. Why do you pander them? Wolf feeds them plenty.
oh, wolfman, did you say “Wrong Way” McQuay was STARTING????
#(heh-heh-heh)
Yes, the dude that won the Holiday Bowl.
he’s the one who kept falling down against UCLA, right? We like him.
You won’t, troll.
