USC Football News: Top Target Taylor Tatum Analyzes Lincoln Riley's Offensive Approach, Talks Future of The Program
The USC Trojans are making waves in college football with their impressive 2024 recruiting class, which currently ranks fifth in the nation. While they face tough competition from some Big 10 rivals, this is a significant achievement for a team and program that are striving to regain their elite status. The Trojans' class could reach even greater heights if they manage to secure the number one running back in the 2024 class from Texas, Taylor Tatum.
Tatum has narrowed down his options to USC and Oklahoma University, but all signs point to him choosing Los Angeles as his destination. The incoming senior recently expressed why USC stands out as his landing spot.
“What stood out to me the most is the coach Lincoln Riley’s offense,” Tatum said. “It’s hard to deny an offense like that. So many different schemes. Not just throwing to the wide receivers, throwing to the running back. People say what about the running back running the ball? If you watch a USC game, they run the ball, too.”
He specifically praised head coach Lincoln Riley's offense, which has consistently ranked among the best year after year. It's understandable why Tatum would be drawn to such an offensive powerhouse. In just his first year at USC, Riley has already made a significant impact, and Tatum wants to be a part of that success.
Moreover, Tatum spoke highly of the Trojans as a whole, expressing his enthusiasm for the program's direction and trajectory.
“I think, in my opinion, they’re going to be in the College Football Playoff the next two to three years, maybe next year,” Tatum said. “I think to be part of that is maybe a great thing.”
If Tatum ultimately joins the Trojans, it will be an exciting addition for USC and the West Coast football scene. His talent and skill will be showcased in California, and he will have the opportunity to excel within a team poised to compete for years to come.
The Trojans are steadily working their way back to the top, and Tatum's potential arrival could be a significant boost in that journey. USC fans eagerly await his decision, hoping to witness his exceptional abilities contribute to their team's success on the field.
