USC Morning Buzz: Six Linemen For Five Spots

USC holds it own media day on Friday minus a couple people you might have heard of named Lincoln and Caleb.

I guess the idea is those two deal with the media enough so they don’t need to attend media day. OK.

These are the offensive linemen who will attend: Justin Dedich, Jarrett Kingston, Jonah Monheim, Emmanuel Pregnon, Gino Quinones and Michael Tarquin.

That’s six linemen for five spots. Three are transfers. Between injuries and game rotations, all six should get to play plenty.

Here’s who I expect to start:

  • LT              71               Michael Tarquin
  • LG             70              Emmanuel Pregnon
  • C               57               Justin Dedich 
  • RG            52               Jarrett Kingston
  • RT             79               Jonah Monheim

Right now, there are still questions regarding the line. But it has a huge advantage, which is the elusiveness of Caleb Williams.

      1. Gino is going to start, because he has a better knowledge of protections and works with Dedich better. The other guy is still raw and needs practice. He may end up at tackle if injuries take a toll. That (and Grinch) may be the only thing that prevents USC from going undefeated.

    3. elijah paige will be a great back-up for left tackle and could even push for playing time this year. he is a definite starter next year. usc has positional versatility with kingston, but not great depth of players that can compete for reps.

        Just to be clear, Fake Gabby needs treatment for her paranoid schizophrenia condition. It is a fairly common (and can be severe) mental illness: about 0.32% of the population suffers from it. [Let’s see. There were 331 million Americans in the 2020 Census. I don’t believe they diagnose it (for sure) until one’s late teenage years, so let’s apply it to those Americans and Traitors like Fake Gabby 18 and over. Google says that 258 million Americans are 18 years old & older: 258 million x 0.0032 = 825,600 people adults who suffer from paranoid schizophrenia, just like Fake Gabby.

      3. Well my nephew plays basketball professionally overseas and he had an enlarged heart which was caused some problems with his arteries in his heart and led to heart arrhythmia. He had a surgery to correct the issue and went back to playing. This was before the pandemic. Because of social media, we’re hearing about more athletes having this issue, but it’s been known in the sports medicine community for a while after the Hank Gathers situation. Hopefully, they can get to the bottom of this and Bronny can come back to playing again.

      5. The biggest change in the US with athletes and their hearts from 5 years ago is the amount of super-processed food and lectins. That’s why Tom Brady has been able to play in the NFL past the age of 43. He changed his diet and exercise routine to get more longevity and probably could have played until he was 50 if Gisele would have allowed it. And that other thing may be involved.

    LAS VEGAS (KTNV) — Shareef O’Neal never takes a day on the court for granted.

    “I want them to know me as a resilient person who is not gonna stop no matter what,” said O’Neal. Son of NBA legend, Shaquille O’Neal, the NBA G League Ignite forward naturally grew up around the game.

    In 2018, he received news that changed his life.

    Shareef was DIAGNOSED with a right anomalous coronary artery. A condition that can result in chest pain, heart failure and even sudden cardiac death.

    The 22-year-old underwent heart surgery on December 13, 2018.
    “It was something that I as born with and didn’t find out until I was at UCLA,” stated O’Neal. “Nothing I’ve gone through in life was worse than that surgery. I feel like my life flashed in front of my eyes that one time.”

    ~Excerpt, by Tina Nguyen
    11/22/2022

    Please note ‘oneway,’ the word DIAGNOSED. O’Neal did not, I repeat, did not ever have heart failure or an heart emergency on a UCLA BB Court.

    Please ‘oneway’ after the half hour it takes you to read the five (4) small, simple paragraphs on my post, shove it up your stupid, ignorant, bozo BB ASS.
