USC Trojans expert Marc Kulkin provides his take on USC either winning big in 2025 or else because of several ways the administration helped Riley, including luring Chad Bowden from Notre Dame. 1:48 Make no mistake, USC’s NIL is truly elite. Marc and I discuss key players and how the Trojans could be a much better team in 2025 than many believe. 6:45 Discussing how USC needs to be much better at recruiting Los Angeles, and some of the 2025 recruits like Jahkeem Stewart. 13:59 To help understand the key players, we debate USC’s roster and how it compares to years past and other top programs in the Big 10 and beyond. Marc also believed the Trojans needed one more player from the Transfer Portal at a specific position. 20:18 Apple: https://podcasts.apple.com/us/podcast/the-portal-daily-college-recruiting-and-nil-podcast/id1720975375 Spotify: https://open.spotify.com/show/2Wr77m5yVBgANHkDS7NxI5 YouTube: https://www.youtube.com/@LO-the-portal Follow me on X: https://x.com/fbscout_florida Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/fbscout_florida/ #recruiting #transferportal #nil #recruitingrankings #collegefootballplayoff #lincolnriley #usctrojans #uscrecruiting #jahkeemstewart Support Us By Supporting Our Sponsors!
