Riley's Next QB For USC
ฝัง
- เผยแพร่เมื่อ 7 ก.พ. 2025
- Lincoln Riley has two quarterbacks for 2025: Jayden Maiava and true freshman Husan Longstreet, who is scheduled to arrive in January and is available for spring camp. However, USC still needs at least one more scholarship quarterback from the transfer portal. I discuss the type of quarterback Riley could be interested in.
The show's next segment looks at USC's most pressing portal needs, starting with the offensive line. Josh Henson is stacking young talent, while a few of his guys have developed into NFL prospects. I look at the possibilities and who is available and taking a visit to USC.

Marc- hope you are right about the reasoning behind the OL bailing for the portal. But last spring, when Isiah Rakes left, we all thought we had an elite DL coming to us thru the portal. That all blew up in our face.
Yea, we got Raked by he and Bear, defense paid the price. Boucard, Carlon, bigger Devan/Jide, plus a monster from the portal should solve our interior discomfort.
I can't see USC grabbing a 4-star QB from the portal. You'd have to overpay both that 4-star QB and Maiava just to hold onto both until the spring portal window opens, then watch the backup leave. Times have changed. General Booty's in the portal; he looks like he could be a backup like Jake Jensen. Javance Tupou'ata-Johnson from SDSU is in there and he was a dual-threat in HS. Maybe Malachi Nelson wants a second try at USC?
I bet there’s a qb diamond in the rough at The JUCO level.
We need to go back to filling holes with these players. Most of the transfer guys are ones that had minimum playing time, so it begs the question, are they really worth the time. No, player should be able to announce they are transfering untill after the National Championship game, and you can only move one time.
Juco players have difficulty getting into ‘SC.
Our new 5⭐️ QB IS Actually enrolling in classes this month December not January that’s how committed and excited he is 😂
Time to start biffing him up a little, Wylie just might have him college ready physically next year.
His dad is a big time USC fan too 😂
Yep, saw that this morning!
Longstreet couldn’t handle Mater Dei. He won’t make an impact in college either
Longstreet is a 3 star at best. Mater dei destroyed him
Master Ripely wants a badass GM to keep him on track. That would be me!
USC has over 485,000 alumni. If USC could get all Alumni to give just $ 20. This would give us $ 10 million in more money to compete with tthe Ohio States out there.
usc has billions in their endowment. spend some of it. one of the richest schools in the country.
If only each and every one of us alive donated $10 bucks to reverse the plight of the planet. There's an iceberg the size of England floating around. Adios Malibu?
My bad we're talking sports, REALITY!
@@louiscyfer6944you cant spend endowment on NIL- cmon- get real . We need to recruit locally and we need to win. That will require a new head coach.
Lol.. USC down bad
@@louiscyfer6944 I think we are way down the list not even in the top 20 in endowments. and that money is not for athletics
Washington has a big offensive tackle with alot of playing time in portal. We ahould def reach out
Dabo doesn't look so bad now. Keep my team in tact. The culture is better and you know everyone is gonna get a chance at playing.
The portal just kills culture.
It's a ME kinda thing !!!
Gping to be hard to get a qb. No one in portal has the intention to be a backup
From the Portal the gold standard would be Mateer from Washington State he is a game changer. Not sure who else
Air Noland.
I keep saying it over and over….go grab the IOL and OT from Liberty. They’re teammates that know how to play together and would be instant plug and play players.
I think the he's asking the genie for a starting center and a linebacker. The portal's tough cause the best QBs are going to expect to start so he will need a younger QB who will be willing to sit and learn. Josh Connerly started at Oregon? Tobias Raymond can very possibly play right tackle.
Riley is looking for a QB who can improvise and keep a pass play alive and well. Approximately 65% of his pass plays break down due to horrible route combinations (wait does the offense employ an actual route tree?)or a two level progression system. His go to? Back shoulder fade. Let’s be real. Riley is more suited to be an NFL QB coach with a staff that suppresses his ego and leaves him no choice but to be a student.
Master Riley! 💀
😂😂😂😂
Eugene brooks would be a great option for SC. I'm just wondering how long it will take to get a playoff birth with riley as coach? Surely in the next 5 seasons. ✌️
riley needs to give up play calling but he won't, so we'll probably be watching the festivities .
Its just so pitiful in college football these days. So you have to look for someone who isnt good enough to start but is good enough to be a backup in case of injury and also a placeholder until the 5 star is ready. If he's too good the incumbent starter who only started 3 games will leave because he wants the job guaranteed to him without competition. And everything has to be spaced out perfectly so no one leaves.. Wonderful.. What a joke!
Maybe try Albertsons produce section? See if you can find a Kurt Warner.
Marc
Any news on Gavriel Lightfoot ?
Has he been offered ? If so Is there a visit lined up ?
Also
What about LB Melvin Jordan from Oregon St. Is there any interest there with him ?
According to every Texas insider he’s made the decision to go pro. Quinn will be a career backup in the nfl.
Marc , I'm waiting . No solutions . I can't do a thing about something I can't control .
Good morning, MARC
I have a few thoughts after four seasons under coach Lincoln and Riley Usc Football is 29 wins and 22 losses compared to the other blue ship programs around the country. This is not acceptable. I’m not even sure why we’re not even having this conversation about our progress what do we need to do to catch up , RNIL deals that need to be better. Ohio State spent $20 million on last year‘s recruiting class. Only God knows how much money Oregon has spent last year let alone the last several years. We need to do better Mark in these areas, it’s really hard to get excited about quarterback and recruiting class when we don’t hold on to our blue chip playersand we don’t get enough of them to begin with. I’m just frustrated with this team with this coach, I want Usc Football to be better and it’s taking a long long long time.
Would you like to elaborate on that now since coach Henson and both the branch brothers have hit it out of town? 😮
@@LockedOnUSC The Branch brothers, our elite running back and receiver. USC has a problem holding on to elite talent. USC will never content for a BIG 10 championship until they figure out their NIL deal and Coach! 29-24 last 4 years under this coach is not worth the 10 million dollars SC is paying for.
I hope Mason Murphy finds success some place, it looked like he just didn’t gel with the rest of the line. Maybe merely playing out of position? He always seemed to be the weak link, and was lucky he wasn’t called for a lot more false starts than he was. Just my opinion from what I saw on TV.
I’ll have an update on the next show, but he signed with Auburn today 😎✌🏼
Oh my, Marc🤷🏿♂️
IDGAF about the portal at this point you want to be here or you don’t !
The Branch Brothers have entered the portal. Where's the smug commentary from Suburban Jethro Bodine aka Chris Arledge?
If you grab a QB out of the transfer portal, they are only transferring for playing time.
So, the minute you throw flowers at Henson, he goes to Purdue. 😕
USC can win 8 games in 2025. Seriously. Alert the fans and media. SC is back!
I said years ago NIL destroyed College Football. When you started paying players that was beginning of the end.
No. It just requires adaptation. You adapt. OREGON clearly has and theyre doing quite well. Cant blame USCs woes on NIL
Correct. Taking the “college” out of “college football” leaves many fans essentially rooting for a jersey - with the guys in the jerseys having little real connection to the school.
Look at Indiana. Almost none of the guys wearing those jerseys have any meaningful connection to the school. Almost all portal guys who arrived in summer, with many of them playing their last game in a few days.
The transfer rules need to change.
Qwinn would be a massive upgrade from jayden. Im so confused to what people have seen from him tonmake anyone think that be should be our starter and we don't need a top tier starter!?!?!?
All I know are the websites I read everyday show the top Portal athletes committing to all the top, excuse me, flagship programs but nothing happening at USC and Lincoln Riley. What is he waiting for? Waiting for the leftovers to choose from like previous Portals? The previous seasons are telling this genius what he is doing isn't working but he is Einstein's favorite dunce doing the same thing over and over and expecting difference results! Seems LR only knows one way to do something. Riley should know his magnificent offensive system doesn't work very well unless he has a do everything QB to make something happen.
You make up stuff and then blame COACH LR
Marc..this is what coaches get paid for. Why should the players stop doing what’s best for them. They’ve always had to accept what was given to them by people who weren’t even playing the by the same rules.
Why are there rules and guidelines in the NFL when it comes to free agency?
Why can't we retain anyone 18 lost on "O" and 11 on "D"
Hey which reporter gonna have the balls to ask LR or JC how it benefits the athletic program and football team going forward, what Brian Kelly and Mike Norvell just did with their salary. 🤔
If I was Coach Riley I would look for a position in the NFL as an offensive coordinator. This sports going to lose a lot of fans.
So many positions of need. Next season looks gloomy.
Ewers will not go to Miami. They don't want him.
Murphy isnt coming to SC
To much $$ and Jayden would transfer
Lincoln Riley couldn’t recruit a nun in a convent
Malik Murphy is a statue in the pocket. Doubt it.
Ty Thompson bust
Offer Mateer $4 million, otherwise USC goes 6-6 again. Maiva looks like an average college QB to me.
Strengthen OL and an average QB will perform outstanding, today, tomorrow and beyond.
Jayden Maiava going to win the Heisman next season. And he’s going to win the college national championship for USC. You heard it here first. Fight On✌️✌️✌️☝️💪😎
Maiava doesn’t have an average arm, average size, or average athleticism (he’s well above average in all 3)
He put up 35 on ND’s highly ranked D, even with 2 picks at the goal line (1st pick was on receiver as it was a perfect back shoulder throw)
@@SamoanStrongLBC-cx4ef BET, I'll personally bring you the pig for the celebration, hell, will bring two,,,.
I'll make sure Pierce College (my old stomping grounds) has 50/60-pound tender lings for the occasion.
Longstreet 3 star a best. Mater Dei destroyed him Wont be factor
All the talent in southern California and you're dependent on the transfer portal. 😂😂😂
Most programs use the transfer portal 🤡.
@@BangTheGavel1911Obviously you struggle with the difference between use and depend. 😂😂😂
@@BallisticBevo obviously just because you chose the word dependent, doesn’t make it correct 
@BallisticBevo you're a 🤡. USC doesn't depend on the portal anymore than other programs do. Kick rocks.
Haters gonna hate.
@LockedOnUSC Your coach is four years into his USC career. A coach with his offensive background should not be in the portal looking for a QB. He should already have one! I could run down your list of needs, but you know them better I do because the list is long.
I'd rather have Jayden Maiava over Quinn Ewers he's has more exper7nutnhis abilities aren't better than Jayden. Jayden is taller, bigger, faster , stronger arm why would we mortgage the house for a one year overrated QB over a guy with bigger upside and multiple years of eligibility
I be trying watch this channel he just talks so alone
Just admit it guys Riley is a bust
It’s simple Lincoln is a OC not a HC
Prove me wrong I’ll wait
