What We Know: One Year Later The USC Roster Has A High Level Of Confidence

The Trojans’ backfield surges, raising expectations for the 2026 season—can King Miller and Waymond Jordan Jr.. become college football’s elite one-two punch under Anthony Jones Jr.? Marc Kulkin and Chris Trevino unpack USC’s roster evolution, from the meteoric rise of Miller to new questions at running back and the impact of injuries on both the offensive and defensive lines. Jayden Maiava's development and the growth of the D-line room also take center stage as the Trojans chase Big Ten dominance. Recruiting strategy gets a modern overhaul with Chad Bowden’s arrival as general manager, while support staff standouts like Weston Zernechel and Max Steinecker play pivotal roles behind the scenes. The hosts tackle USC’s push for another top-ranked class, mystery official visits, and the pursuit of coveted recruits like DJ Jacobs and Isaiah Bertola.
