A SPECIAL FRESHMEN CLASS: The Freshmen Will Play A Lot And Why Is King Miller Is Mad!

USC's 2026 freshman class is turning heads—are true freshmen about to reshape the 2026 season? Marc Kulkin spotlights breakout talents like Luke Wafle, Boobie Feaster, Trent Mosley, and Mark Bowman, each poised for immediate impact far beyond special teams. With speed, skill, and depth, these newcomers add a new spark to the Trojans’ roster and challenge upperclassmen for starting roles as USC preps for its opener against San Jose State. The running back room is heating up with King Miller’s “chip on the shoulder” mentality and Waymond Jordan’s dynamic return from injury. Marc Kulkin highlights inside sources, practice buzz, and what makes players like King Miller feel so disrespected. Plus, get insights into the closed-door scrimmage at the Coliseum, Gary Patterson’s sideline energy, and what’s next as the Trojans count down to game day. #USC #USCFootball #PennStateFootball #USCTrojans #oregonfootball, #JaydenMaiava #LincolnRiley #collegefootball #BigTenfootball #kingmiller #sec #ohiostatefootball  Support Us By Supporting Our Sponsors!
