The news isn’t surprising, as Williams has been one of the top college QBs. He leaves USC fifth in all-time passing yards and fourth in all-time touchdowns.
It clarifies what we expected: USC and HC Lincoln Riley will be moving forward without Williams.
Next in line is Miller Moss, who USC fans are excited to see after his incredible showing in the Holiday Bowl. Williams had opted out of the Holiday Bowl, presumably to prepare for the draft, and five-star freshman Malachi Nelson had entered the transfer portal.
Moss threw six touchdown passes as USC defeated Louisville 42-28 and put an end to speculation that USC could be looking to bring a QB in through the transfer portal.Moss is a different player to Williams, with the previous USC QB setting a high bar for those to follow.
