Since 2006, USC has started 8, 6, 7, 5, 6, 6, 3, 5, 4, 6, 6, 5, 6, 3, 4, 4, 6, 8, and 3 white players. In 2025, they project to drop to an all time low of two starters.

After a one-year deviation from the norm with Miller Moss, Lincoln Riley is returning to his time-honored tradition of playing exclusively non-whites at QB. In a continuation from last season, this tradition takes on a new flavor as Poly Jayden Maiava will be the QB. Lake McRee is the only starter at TE and the TE position does not feature prominently in USC’s offense according to last year’s writeup. McRee only had about 245 receiving yards last year. Between Riley for football and Musselman on the hardwood USC athletics is not for the faint of heart. Let’s see how Riley underachieves this season.

Starter
RT Tobias Raymond
TE Lake McRee

Depth

OG Kilian O’Connor

TE Walker Lyons

Let’s not forget Riley did not even give Moss a full season before he benched him. Riley has an absolute fetish for non-White QBs and his track record speaks for itself. He has not lived up to the hype at USC and I hope he again fails in the big ten this season.
 
It is even weirder when you consider that Riley started out with Baker Mayfield as QB in his first years (as OC and as HC) at Oklahoma. Playing Mayfield was by far the most success he had (an overtime loss away from going to the CFP championship) yet he does not even attempt to recruit any QBs similar to Mayfield.
 
On top of his non white QB fetish, he routinely trots out absolute Swiss cheese defenses year after year.
 
WOW USC!! No White players on the 2 Deep on Defense??
Had high hopes for Hybrid LB Tackett Curtis ; but he transferred to Wisconsin last season

Starting RT Tobias Raymond is White; unless there is a different Depth Chart

Is LT Elijah Paige Indian?

Good catch - missed Raymond. It looked like Paige is Indian, but it is difficult to tell for sure.
