Last year on Feb. 7, Jordan Campbell and his family had a long-time dream come true when Campbell signed a letter-of-intent to attend and play football at USC.

He joins fullback Jordan Campbell from Norco who said after USC's Saturday opener against Idaho that he will take a medical redshirt... more »
Freshman center Kris O'Dowd deserves some credit for coming into camp and winning the backup spot behind Matt Spanos over Nick Howell. Same for walk-on fullback Adam Goodman, who is the backup over Jody Adewale and Jordan Campbell. And Everson Griffen, no surprise, is listed as an equal to Kyle Moore. If Moore sees that, we might have a... more »
Even before Jordan Campbell's shoulder became an issue, walk-on Adam Goodman was getting reps with the No. 2 offense for an extended look this week. Goodman is the biggest fullback on the team (6-2, 235) and he might be of some use as a blocker.... more »
Fullback Jordan Campbell's arm is in a sling and he did not practice with a sore shoulder. USC coach Pete Carroll said Campbell arrived at training camp with a sore shoulder.... more »
You know it's training camp when an elevator at Fluor Tour gets stuck with football players. Jody Adewale, Will Collins, Garrett Green, Scott Stephens, Jim Abbott, Mike McDonald and Jordan Campbell were in an elevator for about 20 minutes and nearly missed a team meeting. The players tried to exit through the ceiling, but it was locked. They also... more »

Joe McKnight (#4) and Marc Tyler (#26) will don the same numbers they ran wild with in high school.
Looks to be the year of the RB again. The rotation at that position for the Trojans is probably deeper than that of any school at any time, ever.
Pete Carroll signed more 5-star rated prospects than any other university in the nation this year; but with many returning starters and limited scholarships, lost the mythical recruiting title to Florida.
Something tells us that USC's two lone 3-stars may be overlooked though.
Rhett Ellison is the son of Riki Ellison, a member of USC's 1978 national championship team and 2-time Super Bowler with the San Francisco 49ers.
Trey Henderson is from Canada? When's the last time you heard of an American footballer coming from there? He was under the radar. And USC detected him.
