Three-star cornerback Maliki Crawford from Oxnard Pacifica has committed to USC.
Crawford committed to UCLA last year but decommitted in January. He chose the Trojans over UCLA and Cal.
USC never has problems with commitments from cornerbacks. One intriguing thing about Crawford is his height (6-3). It’s also interesting he wasn’t recruited from the likes of Alabama, Ohio State, Georgia, etc.
Michigan did offer him but no SEC school offered him.
Well, maybe he is a 3-star for a reason, and the SEC boys decided he was not SEC material.
But I could be wrong; it’s happened before.

USC gets the players the top 5 schools don’t want, so of course he wasn’t recruited by the big boys. The chubby little offensive linemen that they got a commitment from last week, would be as depth, or a special teams in the SEC, and Big Ten.

Scooter,
At 6′ 3″, he will make a great safety. To play at corner at that level, you have to have great hips. At 6’3″, at safety, you mostly play centerfield and either go forward or back.
SC is not doing well with linemen. I have beaten this to death, so has everyone else, but where are the Munoz’s, Budde’s, Harlow’s, Jeter’s, Achica’s, Smith’s, Weaver’s, and Brown’s? I don’t see any. Back in the day with Houck and Goux, that was the brick and morter for SC football. It is a wait and see attitude here.

5-3, 6-3, 7-3, it doesn’t matter! If you can’t make one-on-one tackles in open space, look for a new position. My point is, he plays DB, a position where you’re most often being run out of the play by a receiver. So, his run support shills might be limited, hence the DB position

Good coaching and recruiting and development bring in linemen. My worst thoughts are that Riley is nothing but Helton 2.0 Can’t afford to get the new qb injured. He needs awesome protection.

Correction: KanSas (let’s move on)….anywho!
MG…Let me add some context to the election in Kansas. After the recent Roe decision, Kansas saw a 1000% increase in voter registration the next day(interesting). The state is extremely red, as only 30% are registered Dems.
The results coming out of Kansas broadcasts a clear message. The Republican-leaning SCOTUS is out of touch with the pulse of voters regarding women’s reproductive rights.
The Roe decision has consequences and Nov mid-terms will be the “great retaliation”
Advice to GOP…..Get a platform that moderate voters can support and vote for…OR…. you will continue to lose elections. Once you lose Texas, there is no path to an electoral college victory. Suppressing the vote can only last so long
