USC Notes: Defensive Contributor Missing First Two Games

USC defensive lineman Tyrone Taleni was an under-the-radar quality contributor last season but he has not played the first two games because of a lower leg injury.

Lincoln Riley has not said when Taleni will return.

  • Offensive lineman Cooper Lovelace did play against Nevada but is not on the depth chart. So far, he’s best known for doing the splits.
  • Freshman WR Zachariah Branch is one of six players to make the honor roll for the Hornung Award, which goes to the most versatile player in major college football.
  • The father of Caleb Williams said he could return next year if Caleb doesn’t like the NFL team with the No. 1 pick.

“The funky thing about the NFL draft process is, he’d almost be better off not being drafted than being drafted first,” Carl Williams told GQ. “The system is completely backwards. The way the system is constructed, you go to worst possible situation, worst possible team, worst organization in the league – because of their desire for parity – gets the first pick. So it’s the gift and the curse.”

  • I can’t believe I missed this last night. Presented by Clarke “I’m not crazy, I’m colorful” Stroud.

  1. Looks like Scott was thinking of slo pa-troll when he posted the link to “Football 101″… Perhaps the guy can get some help with his low football IQ.

    Instead of focusing on me 24/7, he can engage in football conversations.
