In this edition of the Peristyle Podcast hosts Ryan Abraham, Connor Morrissette (aka "Triple-Double") and intern India Otto are back in studio breaking down the massive USC assistant coach press conference, where 11 Lincoln Riley assistants each spoke to the media for approximately 15 minutes each. Starting with defensive coordinator Gary Patterson we heard from all of the defensive assistants including the new linebackers and special teams coach Mike Ekeler, new safeties coach Paul Gonzales and new defensive tackles coach Skyler Jones. On the offensive side the coaches were all familiar faces from running backs coach Anthony Jones to tight ends and inside receivers coach Chad Savage. The crew digs into some of the top storylines from all of the interviews, including player injury updates, hints into the depth chart, philosophies on the defensive side of the ball and what the goals are for the 15 spring football practices. Speaking of spring ball, we now know the Trojans will kick off their workouts on March 3, going four days a week with a pause in the middle of March for spring break. With practice just around the corner, our hosts discuss what they are looking to see when the guys hit Howard Jones Field next week. They also discuss the breaking news that USC will be playing San Jose State in week zero to kickoff the 2026 college football season.

Tuesday's A.M. Update tackles fresh media spin on the chairman of the Joint Chiefs supposedly wavering on potential Iran action—prompting President Trump to set the record straight—while the latest Mar-a-Lago security breach draws a characteristically candid response from the president. California Governor Gavin Newsom's attempts to connect with audiences fall flat in revealing ways, as he signals a Democratic shift toward seeming more "culturally normal" ahead of future elections. Amid boycotts of tonight's State of the Union, falling mortgage rates spark mixed economic signals, Chinese firms face accusations of stealing U.S. AI tech secrets, and Robert De Niro's sudden call for unity rings hollow given his past rhetoric. The episode closes with heartfelt gratitude for the administration's focus on angel families, including a new national day of recognition, powerful testimonies from victims' loved ones, and a reminder of the human stakes in securing the border and combating trafficking.

USC Trojans head coach Lincoln Riley is the best quarterback coach in college football. The proof is in the pudding. After Husan Longstreet hit the transfer portal, will Riley add to his QB room by taking a quarterback in the 2027 class? Will he skip a year and wait until 2028? Currently, he has only offered one QB in the 2027 class, Peyton Houston, who is committed to LSU. Could that change soon? Ryan has the latest on the QB recruitment.

The USC Trojans are sending a strong contingent of talent to the 2026 NFL Scouting Combine in Indianapolis (February 23–March 2), with 7 players receiving official invites! This is a huge showcase for Lincoln Riley's program, highlighting the depth and NFL-ready skill on both sides of the ball after a solid season. In this video, we break down each of the seven Trojans heading to Indy, draft projections, and what they need to do to boost their stock ahead of the 2026 NFL Draft (April 23-25 in Pittsburgh). The invited players are: Makai Lemon (WR) – Biletnikoff Award winner, consensus All-American, 79 catches for 1,156 yards & 11 TDs; first-round projection in many mocks! Ja'Kobi Lane (WR) – 49 receptions for 745 yards & 4 TDs; mid-round upside with strong Senior Bowl showing. Lake McRee (TE) – 30 catches for 450 yards & 4 TDs; ranked among top tight ends, athletic route-runner. Anthony Lucas (DE/EDGE) – 37 tackles & 3 sacks; physical traits stand out despite past injuries. Eric Gentry (LB) – Career-high 76 tackles, 5 forced fumbles & 3 sacks; 6'6" frame draws buzz. Kamari Ramsey (S) – 27 tackles in limited games; top-10 safety prospect potential, Day 2 pick upside. Bishop Fitzgerald (S) – 51 tackles & 5 INTs; consensus All-American, could rise with strong testing. From explosive playmakers like Lemon (a potential top receiver off the board) to versatile defenders, these Trojans have the chance to shine in drills, interviews, and medicals.

When Coach Eric Henderson announced that he would be leaving the USC Trojans and returning to the NFL, there were plenty of big names linked to USC for the open job. After a few days of speculation, Lincoln Riley and Gary Patterson ultimately decided to promote from within and move Skyler Jones from defensive analyst to essentially become the defensive tackles coach with Shaun Nua. We will see how the pair works together, but I would expect Nua to have a bit of a larger role moving forward. Comment your thoughts on the hire below.

His name came up as a potential candidate during the search, but as it became more likely that Patterson was the direction USC was going it seemed less and less likely that Belk would be sticking around. They finish up talking about the closing of the NCAA Transfer Portal, Mike Ekeler officially joining the staff as special teams coordinator plus what Indiana winning the national championship means for college football, the Big Ten and USC.

In this edition of the Peristyle Podcast hosts Ryan Abraham and Connor Morrissette (aka "Triple-Double") return to talk about the USC football team finishing off its 2026 Transfer Portal class with the addition of former Wisconsin tight end Tucker Ashcraft. The 6-foot-5, 257 pound tight end signed with USC Wednesday after playing 16 games for Wisconsin over the last two seasons with six starts. He has 22 career catches for 178 yards and two touchdowns. The portal window closes on Friday and there are no more additions expected by the Trojans for this cycle following the massive No. 1 ranked high school recruiting class that was brought in back in December. The guys also give their thoughts on the ongoing search for the next USC defensive coordinator, with the name of former TCU head coach Gary Patterson coming up in more conversations as of late. Head coach Lincoln Riley wasn't in a hurry to make the hire, and with only one day left for players to enter the portal it is looking more and more likely that the hire will come after that portal window closes. They finish up discussing what Ryan saw in Hawaii at the early Polynesian Bowl practices that unfortunately did not include the five Trojans signees that had accepted invitations to the game. Those players will show off their skills for the Poly Bowl game on Friday, but as new college students they just stuck around USC a little longer before making their way to Hawaii.

On this episode of the Peristyle Podcasts hosts Ryan Abraham and Coach Harvey Hyde are back together discussing a variety of topics concerning the USC football program, starting with an extremely disappointing loss to TCU in the Alamo Bowl. The Trojans fell 30-27 in overtime, blowing a 10-point fourth quarter lead and an opportunity to finish the 2025 college football season with double-digit wins. Coach gives his thoughts on the performance, all of the players that decided to opt-out of the game and what that means for the program going forward plus defensive coordinator D'Anton Lynn not calling plays at the very last minute. The guys also talk about Lincoln Riley's search to replace Lynn and potentially other defensive coaches on the staff. With the NCAA Transfer Portal window open, it would be behoove Riley to have the leader of his defense in place to try and keep players on the roster and add guys from other teams. Speaking of the portal, they also discuss some of the players that have entered and a couple of the new commits that have announced they are transferring to USC.

Shotgun Spratling and Chris Trevino return to the microphones for a news-heavy episode to discuss all the latest updates from USC football from transfers, NFL declarations to players returning. Chris opens up the 'Two-Minute Drill' that's actually a statement for the feedback he received from his Two-Minute Drill from last week. Shotgun uses his tine to discuss junior wide receiver Makai Lemon taking home the Biletnikoff Award over the weekend. Lemon caught 79 passes for 1,156 yards and 11 touchdowns in 12 games. Lemon also rushed for two touchdowns, and he threw a touchdown pass. Lemon's 90.4 overall offensive grade from Pro Football Focus led all FBS wide receivers this season, and his 1,156 receiving yards were the most among Power Four wideouts. Lemon's 20 forced missed tackles tied for sixth among all wide receivers nationally, and he caught 10 of his 15 contested targets. The Helium Boys then dive into the second half of the show to discuss USC's new front office venture of announcing re-signed players for the program and Lincoln Riley's announcement for players that will not play in the Alamo Bowl at the end of the month.

On this episode of the Peristyle Podcasts hosts Ryan Abraham and Coach Harvey Hyde are back together talking about the Trojans accepting a bid to play in the Valero Alamo Bowl in San Antonio on December 30, taking on the 8-4 TCU Horned Frogs from the Big 12 Conference. Coach Hyde discusses why playing in these bowl games is important for the development of the team, even though he wanted the Trojans to take on a higher ranked opponent following the 9-3 season. The guys also discuss how head coach Lincoln Riley was able to secure the No. 1 ranked recruiting class in the country, holding off a late push by Oregon, and why this was such an important development for this Trojan football program that is trying to get back to elite status. Coach feels USC should be in the upper echelon of high school recruiting each and every season, and this 2026 class is a great way to get the ball rolling in that direction again. They also take a look at some of the USC football players that declared they will be entering the NCAA Transfer Portal in January and what sort of impact those departures could have. They give their thoughts on the College Football Playoff field including rival Notre Dame being left out and coach talks about why he feels it was a bad move for the Irish to skip out on a bowl game.

On this latest edition of Tunnel Vision USCFootball.com's Ryan Abraham, Connor Morrissette (aka "Triple-Double") are back in studio recapping USC's 29-10 victory over UCLA, capping a 9-3 season for the Men of Troy and a likely trip to San Antonio for the Alamo Bowl and an opportunity to win 10 games. With star wide receivers Makai Lemon and Ja'Kobi Lane suspended for the first quarter for violating team rules, the offense struggled in the first half and only managed to put one touchdown on the board. Things picked up in the second half for USC, with the offense putting up points and the defense pitching another shutout, dashing UCLA's hopes of an upset bid in the Battle for Los Angeles. The guys breaks down the game, talking about how missing the top-2 receivers set the offense back in the first half and some of the defensive struggles that led to the Bruins taking the lead in a game for the first time in 40 days. After halftime quarterback Jayden Maiava settled in and found his two stars, Lemon for a 32-yard touchdown and Lane on a couple of crucial drive-extending catches. King Miller also ran well, finishing with 124 yards rushing, 42 receiving and two total touchdowns, earning him USC's player of the game. Finishing the regular season 9-3 is better than most expected, but in some ways it still feels like a disappointment with the opportunity to make the College Football Playoffs just a missed field goal at Illinois away. The guys take a look at the season as a whole and discuss why Lincoln Riley said this campaign was an important springboard towards the future success of this Trojan football team.
