The telling sign of a good football program is how well it can develop players. NIL puts a wrinkle in that, as there isn't much of a priority for players to stay with the same team for their whole college tenure. Lincoln Riley and Gary Patterson will put their development skills to the test at USC with potential rising star RJ Sermons.
In a recent article, Kendell Hollowell highlights a player who is on the watch for a surprise breakout season. Here is what coaches are saying about RJ Sermons:
"It was huge. He turned from a boy to a man, not just in the way he looks, in the way he thinks, the way he act, the way he go about his business, the way he take notes," Reed said. "Everything about him has changed. The ceiling is through the roof for that guy. He will be one of those young men that when we look back on it, he gonna live up to that fifth star that he got."
Sermons was a standout in the spring and will continue to battle in a heated cornerback competition. However, Sermons could be a player who is very hard to keep off the field two years in a row."
Sermons was another young player with high hopes this season, but he benefited more from getting his development from behind the scenes. The Trojans lost two pivotal players in the secondary to the draft. All eyes will be on RJ Sermons to carry that legacy forward. He definitely has the traits and confidence to do so.
