USC football: Unofficial scholarship count ahead of 2023 season

Any time the Trojans make a new addition or someone leaves the program, this story will be updated

Bookmark this page. We’re keeping track of USC football’s unofficial list of scholarship players this offseason. Any time the Trojans make a new addition or someone leaves the program, this story will be updated. 

USC unofficially has 91 scholarship players either on campus or officially signed as of Feb. 1, which is six over the FBS limit of 85 scholarship players. Players will leave in the future and they may not make it public, which is why this is an unofficial count.

WHAT’S NEXT?

The Trojans may further add to their 2023 high school recruiting class if the program lands 5-star tight end Duce Robinson. Additionally, bringing in more players during the second transfer portal window in May is likely, so expect to see a few players on this list leave the program prior to the fall.
