If Caleb can stay healthy and SC doesn’t lose a bunch of players on offense via injury, That offense will be #1 in the nation. They were #3 this last year. They’ll be better this year. If they can just get a few more players defensively for depth they will have a great team. Offensively they are loaded. Hopefully they can hold onto JoKobe Lane. That guy is comparable with Duce Robinson(whom I don’t think we will get). Robert Pleasant and Warren Robinson would be nice too.

I’d be surprised if he came to SC. Georgia had 3 great tight ends. One of them chose to go pro. Another one jumped into the transfer portal. That will open up things for him at Georgia

If the defense can get some 3 and outs, that will put the ball back into the hands of the offense, which could push the stats even higher. And the SC offense was off and on during parts of the first half of the season last year.
Maybe Riley wont waste Caleb’s last year. We probably wont know how good this team is until much later in the year.

They need to start working on O-Line play in the spring camp. Getting the O-Line to play as a unit takes time even if you do have stars playing on it. Having 2 cupcakes to start the season will help.

Nice, Charles. I hear John Milius also wrote this prayer for Lincoln Riley to say before the Notre Dame game: “Crom, I have never prayed to you before. I have no tongue for it. No one, not even you, will remember why we played this game. All that matters is that Caleb and I stood against many. Valor pleases you …so grant my request. Grant USC revenge.”

USC is adding experienced starters from competitive teams. Grinch needs to be more ruthless and realize there are no friendships when it comes to victory. Only believers. At least this group can get stronger in year 2 and will be dominant early in the season. Will they get stronger at the end of the season?
