Quote:Every Friday in June, USC has taken visiting recruits to dinner at SoFi Stadium. Then, every Sunday, they’re treated to a final brunch at a house on The Strand in Manhattan Beach.In between, there are photo shoots and campus tours, NIL presentations and even impromptu beach trips, all with the intent of selling recruits not only on USC, but all Los Angeles has to offer.
I’ll believe it is producing results when the Trojans start winning championships. Recruiting has never been SC’s problem; they are consistently a top-10 team on that front (with one big exception a couple years ago). It’s what they fail to do with that talent that stands out. Never has a team accomplished so little with so much.
