A nation-leading 20 kids have transferred to USC from other schools. At least that many have been forced out of the program. The money is flowing, the promises are soaring, the program has been turned on its helmet, and you know what that means. New coach Lincoln Riley MUST deliver at least a CFP team and he knows it. "We didn't come here to play for second, we are not wired that way," Riley said. "We came here competitively to win championships, win them now and to win them for a long time." Players who are the biggest targets of expectation are quarterback Caleb Williams, who arrived from Oklahoma with Riley, and wide receiver Jordan Addison, the Biletnikoff Award winner from Pittsburgh. Williams was asked what he would consider a successful season. "Win every game," he said. To do so, USC may need to score 50 points a game. Riley doesn't do defense. At Oklahoma, opponents scored 54, 45 and 63 points in three of their four bowl appearances. Que the scoreboard. - Los Angeles Times

08/01/22 - Kyon Barrs, rSr/2024, Southern California, 6-2, 301 (DS#71 DT) + More +

After being sidelined for spring ball and most of the offseason, Arizona Wildcats wide receiver Jamarye Joiner and defensive tackle Kyon Barrs, both of whom suffered foot injuries in the spring, will be available for the start of preseason training camp on Wednesday, according to head coach Jedd Fisch at Pac-12 Media Day on Friday. Both Barrs and Joiner underwent surgery in Los Angeles with specialists tied to the L.A. Rams, the NFL team Fisch was an assistant for in 2018. For Joiner, the 6-foot-1-inch, 209-pound Tucson native and Cienega High School product will return to a wide receiver corps that includes UTEP transfer preseason All-Pac-12 selection Jacob Cowing, star freshman Tetairoa McMillan, Dorian Singer, Kevin Green, Anthony Simpson and A.J. Jones, among others.

The fifth-year Joiner will attempt to work his way back into Arizona's offense after three foot operations over the last two years for the "Jones fracture" he initially suffered during spring 2020. After returning in 2021, Joiner swapped reps at wide receiver and quarterback, totaling 204 all-purpose yards and three touchdowns. Barrs, a 6-3, 297-pound All-Pac-12 selection, is expected to be among Arizona's top defensive players in 2022 after a 2021 campaign that included 33 tackles, eight stops for loss and a team-high five sacks in 10 games. - Arizona Star News

Jordan Addison's departure from Pitt to USC is almost old news at this point. It became obvious the Biletnikoff Award winner would leave for the Trojans in late April before officially doing so a few weeks later in May. But since then, Narduzzi hasn't been made available to local media to discuss the high-profile departure, which had NIL implications and alleged tampering attached to it. On Thursday, Narduzzi addressed Addison's transfer with a layered response. "I stayed quiet for a long time because it was a recruiting process. We were recruiting him," Narduzzi said. "But I'm focused on our guys who want to be here at Pitt. That's the key. "Jordan's a great kid, great player. We had fun with him for two years. I think we helped him get to where he is today. I think we helped him win a Biletnikoff and be the player that he is. Kenny Pickett was pretty good. He had one of the best quarterbacks in the country throwing him the ball every day. Some people forget how they got where they are. It was a special year. I've got a ton of respect for Jordan. Young men have to make decisions based on what they know or what they thought. And we kind of move on."

Later, Narduzzi told the Post-Gazette he "absolutely" believes USC tampered with Addison. Reports of the all-American leaving for USC surfaced before he formally entered the transfer portal, at which point teams would be able to contact him. "Transferring is one thing, but the NCAA has to do something about tampering," Narduzzi told the Post-Gazette, "because tampering is certainly happening in a big way. By players or coaches, it can't happen. It's happening a lot, and it's not good." Asked what can realistically be done to curb tampering, Narduzzi said: "I don't know. Not my job. But it's got to get straightened out." - Pittsburgh Post Gazette

2022 PRESEASON MAXWELL AWARD WATCH LIST: Caleb Williams, USC,...This is one of the well-known transfers, quarterback Caleb Williams moving from Oklahoma with coach Lincoln Riley to USC. Recently, college football insider Mike Farrell spread a disputed narrative on Twitter about Williams being driven away from Oklahoma and to USC because of OU fans. Williams' dad AND Williams himself never said this. Williams' dad, Carl, did mention that he himself was not thrilled with how Oklahoma fans reacted to his son entering the transfer portal, but it wasn't why he transferred at all. In fact, Caleb even addressed the fan reaction back when he made his decision to come to USC. Said Caleb: "They reacted kind of how I respected them to. I appreciate all the OU fans. I love all the OU fans. All the love and support they have given me throughout the season before I was playing, before I got there and while I was playing. They'll always be in my heart." How nice. Can't wait for football to start so there is something really happening. - ReignofTroy.com

2022 PRESEASON MAXWELL AWARD WATCH LIST: Jordan Addison, USC,...So we've heard a lot about this poster boy for NIL and transfers since he departed Pitt for USC. But a story in pittsburghnow.com only July 10 says: "Addison has reportedly been pissed in recent weeks because of unspecified broken promises not yet being followed through with, On3 national recruiting analyst Gerry Hamilton reported Friday on a Texas message board. The decision for Pitt's Biletnikoff Award-winner to transfer after two excellent seasons at Pitt was met with much discussion, especially since Addison was already being projected as a first round selection in the 2023 NFL Draft and had been building additional report with transfer quarterback Kedon Slovis over the winter, but the allure of NIL money in SoCal ultimately proved too much to pass up." Sour grapes? Who knows? That's why we have watch lists. So let's watch. - Pittsburghnow.com and online sources

The Tallahassee Quarterback Club (TQC) Foundation, Inc., the Florida-based creator and sponsor of the prestigious Biletnikoff Award, has released the 2022 Biletnikoff Award Preseason Watch List. The Biletnikoff Award annually recognizes the college football season's outstanding FBS receiver. Any player, regardless of position (wide receiver, tight end, slot back, and running back) who catches a pass is eligible for the award. As such, the Biletnikoff Award recognizes college football's outstanding receiver, not merely college football's outstanding wide receiver. Receivers are frequently added to the watch list as their season performances dictate. Actual, not potential, performance is the basis for inclusion on the Biletnikoff Award Watch List. - Biletnikoff Award
