D’Anton Lynn of USC sits down with Adam Breneman of Next Up

D’Anton Lynn goes in depth on his overall approach.

USC Trojans defensive coordinator D’Anton Lynn sat down with former Penn State and NFL tight end Adam Breneman to talk about the full revamping of USC’s defense and building a new culture as he takes over for Alex Grinch.

In this exclusive interview, D’Anton Lynn opens up about his plans to rewrite the narrative surrounding USC’s defense. Coach Lynn touches on his defensive scheme and approach to play-calling, the defensive culture he’s building with the Trojans, Lincoln Riley and much more.

Breneman has talked to Lincoln Riley, Miller Moss, and other prominent USC football figures in recent weeks. Now the USC series continues with Lynn, the man who is arguably the most important piece of the whole puzzle for the Trojans in 2024. Lynn’s ability to quickly remake the UCLA defense one year ago, when UCLA did not have elite talent in the eyes of most college football analysts, might be the best reason to think that Lynn can engineer a similarly successful one-year overhaul of the Trojans this fall.
