Another Linebacker Enters Transfer Portal
With the recent additions from the transfer portal and Signing Day, it makes sense for another USC linebacker to enter the transfer portal. Tuasivi Nomura, who had 23 tackles in 11 games, is the latest to depart.

If It’s Friday, It’s Time For A USC Notes Column
Lincoln Riley said incoming freshman Tackett Curtis is the No. 1 linebacker recruit in the nation. Does that mean he’ll start? “The feeling is you feel awful and if you’re not careful you’re going to point fingers. Take ownership in it. We didn’t finish.
