Outlook: After a 6-5 season last year, Trojan coach CL Whittington has eleven starters back, mainly players in the trenches. At RB, Jessie Raglin, Ray Deblac and Raheem Oladimeji are all possibilities with QB a big question mark. Kerrick Christian will be the starting blocking back. The running game will work behind veteran linemen Demarkus Chambliss and Humberto Caceras. On defense, up front will again be a strength with Leroy Scott a talent at Corner. Linebackers are needed as well as a capable QB. A nice foundation to build from is present.
