You know why it was a dumb idea for USC to announce every player who re-signed for next year?

Because it was meaningless.

USC AJ Tuitele was announced as re-signing on Christmas Eve. But he entered the transfer portal Friday night. Excuse me?

Should every signing that gets announced have a disclaimer: Doesn’t mean anything.

Yes, that is college football today. Oh, and USC deleted the tweet where it said Tuitele had re-signed.

This is my problem: When social media impressions are just as important to the program as going out and signing a top linebacker. By the way, how does USC look at linebacker? I don’t consider Washington linebacker Deven Bryant to be the answers to the position’s shortcomings.

There was some good news as USC did re-sign defensive back Alex Graham on Friday. Is it binding?
