Big Visitor
Kevin Bryant, a 6-foot-6, 380-pound offensive guard from Lauderdale Lakes, Fla., hopes to make his official visit the weekend of the Arizona State game. He is ranked the eighth-best guard in the nation by Rivals.com.
Bryant could be the Trojans' second offensive line commitment from Florida, following guard James Wilson of St. Augustine, Fla.
Any truth to the rumor that Wilson was going to de-commit in favor of the Gators?
James Wilson, martin Coleman and Michael Reardon and with O'dowd considered a USC lean do we really need more OL?
A guard? Big Deal. This guy must not be very athletic or he would be playing tackle. Sounds like a project at best. Kinda hoping he stays close to home and we don't waste a scholarship.
It is the year 2023, and SC just had another offensive lineman commitment. He is 6 foot-9, weigs 515 pounds, and has body-fat of less than 6%. He will be the third largest lineman at SC.
Scott, speaking of our offensive line, what is the return status of Jeff Byers, apparently we're needing help in our running plays?
Actually, I would think the guards need to be more athletic since they do a lot of the pulling.
Left tackle for a rh QB is the most important OL to protect his blind-side. Also the second-most highly paid player in the NFL for this reason. Tackles need more speed/agility to fend off sack-happy DE's and OLB's.
Yes, we do need more OLs CaliFb. We can continue to load up on 5 star RBs and WRs but they are uselss unless our line is strong. Bryant is a good player, I like him more than ODowd. The defensive line could really be a strong point this year though, with Everson Griffen, Marvin Austin, DaJohn Harris and Brian Price all potentialy USC bound.
And no, James Wilson is not going anywhere else.
