The USC Trojans always find a way to stay relevant. On Monday, the Trojans hired Kliff Kingsbury as an offensive analyst. The former NFL head coach landed at USC.
The hire of Kingsbury is a massive one after he was fired as head coach of the Arizona Cardinals. He will likely work closely with the quarterbacks. Caleb Williams and Malachi Nelson are going to get most of the attention. However, don’t forget about Miller Moss, the “other” quarterback in the room.
As it turns out, this could be a massive reward for Miller Moss, and it’s something we highlighted last offseason. Obviously, what applied to the 2022 season now applies even more to 2023, with Moss not (yet) transferring:
“Moss should receive great coaching. Even if he doesn’t play very much, he should leave 2022 with a far better understanding of how to perform. He could potentially transfer before the 2023 season and get the playing time he needs. This year, though, he gets to learn from Lincoln Riley. That alone should be a boost to his career and his future prospects, setting the table for the years to come.”
Caleb Williams is the Heisman Trophy favorite once again, but Kingsbury working closely could be a step in the right direction as far as Moss’s development is concerned. Let’s see if this decision pays off.
