On our most recent Friday call-in show at the USC Voice of College Football, one of our most regular and loyal callers, Adam, called in and asked us who we thought would be breakout players the USC Trojans in 2024. Matt called for the rushing game to be opened up for “one of the unheralded running backs” to step up after getting more reps. Woody Marks may get the lion’s share of carries, but we talked about all the younger Texas-based backs such as Quinten Joyner.
We know that the four second-year wide receivers would not be a surprise at this point with all the attention they have received in the Holiday bowl, spring ball, and early in fall practices.
Two potential standouts come from a couple Trojans who have been plagued by injury during their careers. We talked about the defensive line and the transformation that former St. John Bosco standout Kobe Pepe has made inside on the defensive line. The other player discussed was Solomon Tuliaupupu getting praise from the coaching staff.
