USC and offensive line coach Josh Henson need to make a bigger imprint in the world of offensive line recruiting. The Trojans need the high-end talent, but more than that, they need a high level of depth to give this team reinforcements in the case of injuries. USC’s offensive line took a noticeable dip in 2023 when Gino Quinones got hurt. Quinones is a good player, but an offensive line needs to be strong enough that one injury doesn’t create a drastic dip in form and quality. Depth solves that problem, and that’s why Henson and USC need to be able to raise their game on the trail, so that the Trojans will have fully-stocked offensive lines when they compete in the Big Ten Conference in coming years.
