Lincoln Riley likes a lot of what he sees when he looks out at the USC practice field and takes in his Trojans working through spring ball. He spoke this week about the difference in the roster this spring compared to last. He sees improvement at the defensive line position and has raved about the steps taken by the defensive backs this offseason. One spot where things aren't exactly trending up this spring is tight end. But that has far more to do with a lack of available bodies than a lack of talent in those available bodies.
