Mo Hasan, who started one game at Vanderbilt last season, announced he is transferring to USC. Hasan completed 7 of 11 passes for 120 yards and a touchdown in Vanderbilt’s upset of then-No. 21-ranked Missouri last season.

But if he gets some offensive players to commit, what exactly have Graham Harrell, Mike Jinks, Tim Drevno and Keary Colbert been doing the past year?
