USC Going With Two Freshmen Tackles

Redshirt freshmen Courtland Ford and Jonah Monheim are going to start at left tackle and right tackle, respectively, which they did at today’s scrimmage.

I’ve given my thoughts on that here. Would Alabama do it?

“We’ve kind of settled in on right and left,” Clay Helton said afterward.

To no one’s surprise, Jaxson Dart was the second-string QB. Memphis-transfer WR Tahj Washington also had a big day per Clay Helton.

“I thought Tahj really stepped forward and did that for us and really showed himself as a guy that can be an every-down guy,” Helton said.

      1. The Mujahideen were fighting the Soviets then, and drove them out of Afghanistan. The cost of the Afghanistan war to the USSR was consequential in the Soviet breakup. Somehow you think that Afghanistan in the 1980s, fighting the Soviets, is relevant for today? Put your tin foil hat back on, sonny boy.

      2. You Obviously don’t know much about history. Wow, don’t get on a soap box if you don’t know how things fit together in history. History did take a turn for the worse because we backed and supported the Mujahideen. It came back to bit us in the ass. We supplied them, trained them, backed them. Then down the road they turned on us because they became effectively al queda. But that was down the road. We were all glad they pushed the soviets out of Afghanistan. A whole different scenario T. Witness history, don’t ingest some pseudo intellectuals talking points. Understand how the world works on a cause and effect level. It will open your eyes, trust me.

      4. You republi-clowns were all for supporting the mujahadeen and now that they’ve played you fools you’re upset because they’ve kicked your pathetic ignorant asses out of their country.

        It was (R) John McCain who wanted to stay there for 100 years. What the fuck did you think was going to happen when it came time to leave? Of course those terrorist were going to fill the vacuum. President Obama wanted out after “he” took out Bin Laden.

        You fucking clowns had 8 years under bush and couldn’t catch shit, you imbecile’s created the mess in the first place, don’t play revisionist history with me you stupid fucktards.

      5. Tebow, JFC, you are a moron. On steroids. you make FU look like semi-literate. And FU is a guy with about a 40 word vocabulary. Go back to your original post, and try to connect some linear thought to that post, in which you tried to claim that 1987 Afghanistan is relevant for today. Or maybe we should go back in time when you argued that Cal State Long Beach is a better university than MIT or Cal Tech. My sides hurt I am laughing so much!

    4. To start off with I detest social media and don’t tweet or have instagram. I wouldn’t be negative anyway in a public forum. Not my style. That being said, If 18-22 year olds are adults enough to make hundreds of thousands to millions of dollars in NIL money just by having followers on social media, then I think they are adult enough to either deal with or ignore a little negativity about their bungling coach and offensive coordinator. And if the coaches can’t handle it then maybe they shouldn’t have signed multiple million dollar deals. If you want to wear the big boy pants, then WEAR the big boy pants. I volunteered 40+ hours a week for the university for over 5 years. For those of you who understand the constraints of olympic sports on a D1 level know that staffs are comprised of paid and volunteers because of the paid spot limits. I worked harder than most of my football contemporaries and did far more development too,(and that was during the Carrol era) with far less talent. It is self pride in doing the job correctly and understanding that there will be critics. But the better you do your job the less criticism you get. If you are good at what you do, people don’t want you to go away, they want you to stay. Not to be arrogant, but I’ve never had to leave a job not on my own volition. I left the university because I couldn’t afford to volunteer the amount of time i felt it took to do the job right. I had to feed my family and pay the mortgage. From walk-on to earning a scholarship as a Sr. From volunteer with no scholarships and no talented athletes to multiple walk-ons who earned all-American status and scored at nationals. Sorry if I don’t have a lot of patience for athletes who can make a bundle just by having a social media account and a scholarship and are too fragile to hear anything but glowing praise. Or multi million dollar coaches who weren’t qualified in the first place and didn’t produce with all the advantages in place. Kind of a sign of where this institution and department has fallen to.

    5. Yes, starting freshmen at both tackles demonstrates a huge past problem, but it is my guess that the offensive line under McGuire is a ton better than under Drevno and is on the right trajectory. The S&C program is also a ton better this year than in the past.

      Not making excuses for all the lack of development in the past and I’m not saying the o-line will be CFP level. But at least the players are now being developed a bit by the o-line coach.

  2. NEWS BREAK FROM TODAY’S SCRIMMAGE!
    * Kenan Christon had a really good day, catching a short pass and turning it into a touchdown and also creating a long run when he got through the line and made someone miss in the secondary. Eventually Prophet Brown brought him down

    I am pulling for Kenan to have the opportunity to carry and catch the ball this year. We need more speed on offense especially with a below average offense offensive line. Kenan, is explosive we need guys at running back who can take it to the house on a swing pass or student body right. Vavai, is a good 3 yard cloud of dust type back we need a big play back who can explode off the line of scrimmage with just a bit of daylight.

    My concern is Helton and Harrell ruin this guy too like he did with Stepp and Carr. He needs carries, and if he does not see the field this year he will transfer I guarantee it.

    JT Daniels looked like fool’s gold under harrell and helton. Now he is playing for a possible title birth. Coaching makes a difference.

    Dont give me that the system fits him better BS as the coaches dictate the system. Utilize the guys you recruited.

      Good luck to JT.

    1. As an impartial semi literate observer,
      I would posit that the WAR IN AFGANISTAN has been a complete success.

      $10,000 dumped into the DOW in Sept 2001 is now at about $67,000.
      $10,000 dumped into the BIG 5(Raytheon, General Dynamics, Boeing, etc) brings your return to over $90,000.
      Carry on boys, you’re doing a bang up job. And (as an added bonus) you’ve successfully handed trillions of mineral wealth to the CCP on a silver platter. Well done lads.
