Summary
In this edition of the Peristyle Podcast hosts Ryan Abraham, Connor Morrissette (aka "Triple-Double") and intern India Otto are back in studio talking about all of the news and notes around this USC football program, starting with the ongoing search for a new defensive coordinator. With D'Anton Lynn departing Troy for his alma mater Penn State, head coach Lincoln Riley is on the prowl for a new DC. The crew talks about some of the names that have come up and when they feel this search will finally conclude.
The NCAA Transfer Portal has been open for five days and the action has been hot and heavy, including a high profile Big Ten quarterback that signed a deal to stay put and then entered the portal a few days later. The crew talks about which Trojan football players have decided to look elsewhere and which players are making Los Angeles their new home.
There has also been some recruiting news with Trojan targets taking part in the Navy All-American Bowl in San Antonio plus the upcoming Polynesian Bowl in Honolulu.
