Lincoln Riley, USC players take high road at Big Ten media days

Miller Moss and his teammates are a credit to USC.

USC head coach Lincoln Riley and his players at Big Ten media days — Jonah Monheim, Miller Moss, and Kamari Ramsay — represented the Trojans in their first Big Ten media event in Indianapolis. Unfortunately, many of the questions USC coaches and players received at the large-scale gathering were based on West Coast and Los Angeles stereotypes. One of the continuous lines of questioning thrown toward Riley was the tired line about $110 million dollar barbecue skills, stemming from pictures of a brisket which has gained entirely too much attention from national reporters.

Trojans Wire talked about how well the USC coaches and players carried themselves at Big Ten media days. Miller Moss at one point used the word “anomaly.” You don’t hear that word from most college athletes. Moss might have a future in college football commentary after his playing career ends. Regardless, Moss, Monheim and Ramsey showed themselves to be impressive young men who are a credit to USC regardless of what they do on the football field.
