When former USC Trojans QB Husan Longstreet entered the transfer portal, it was under the understanding that he wanted the opportunity to start next year. With Jayden Maiava returning, that felt unlikely at USC.

Was there more to this?

The USC Trojans announced the re-signing of both Alani Noa and Ta'Mere Robinson. This means that USC has retained all five opening day starters on the offensive line.
