In this episode of Inside the Trojans’ Huddle, the WeAreSC panel discusses recruiting fallout from the big visit weekend for USC, potential leaders during PRPs, scheduling Notre Dame and LSU, and Arledge’s Ten Questions.

USC’s recruiting weekend

USC hosted 11 official visitors over the weekend. The panel talks about what stood out from a weekend with some big-time talent on hand that resulted in no public verbal commitments.

USC had five-star safeties Jonah Williams and Trey McNutt in attendance, along with four-star safety commit Hylton “Drake” Stubbs. The other top defensive target on campus was four-star linebacker Nathaniel Owusu-Boateng. Is it worrisome that USC didn’t land a commit?

USC’s PRP leaders

USC’s player run practices will take place throughout the summer. The panel discusses who might step up as a leader and which players need to do exactly that.

Scheduling

There have been some national scheduling conversations recently centered on USC. Namely, the report that the Trojans looked to get out of the upcoming neutral site game against LSU and some comments that USC should let go of the annual rivalry game against Notre Dame. What does the panel think about those ideas and how the Trojans should schedule moving forward?
