After seeing a couple of practices, with a really competitive and determined group, I'll bet that the first tier Chancey/Bradford/Johnson, with Tyler playing in special situations, and Gable and Green backing them up will work out.

If that happens, I wouldn't be surprised if he winds up transferring at some point--although he could be like Stafon and use a lack of playing time as motivation to improve even more. (I also like your idea about using him on defense... that could be his better position.)

He's a great Trojan. Huge work ethic. I just hope he moves to safety so that year after next he can be an All-American there. Don’t say that about CJ Gable. He’s a great Trojan. Huge work ethic.

Moody had talent, but it looks like the other guys have stepped it up a bit...can't wait to see Stafon Johnson, McKnight, and Bradford kick some butt this season! Great job T-Update. Keep the info coming! Unfortunate situation, but hopefully it can turn out well for both Moody and USC.
