The USC Trojans did not meet expectations last year, missing their first post-season appearance since the pre-Pete Carroll era. In addition, the Trojans’ offseason has been one filled with coaching changes, recruits transferring, and athletic director Lynn Swann in hot water. Nonetheless, the Trojans are looking ahead to the 2019 season with high expectations and hopes for a Pac-12 South title.
One positive for the Trojans is every non-graduated player is returning to the team. This is the first time since 2003 that an underclassman has not declared for the NFL draft. In addition, the Trojans bring in new offensive coordinator, Graham Harrell.
