Two Things USC's Lincoln Riley Looks for in a Quarterback
- Riley emphasizes evaluating a quarterback on both on‑tape performance and fit in conversations, aiming for a balance that excites both assessment and collaboration.
- Williams followed Riley from Oklahoma to USC, becoming a Heisman winner in 2022 and later No. 1 overall in the 2024 NFL Draft.
- Oklahoma’s Baker Mayfield and Kyler Murray, both coached by Riley, won Heismans under his leadership and went No. 1 in the NFL Draft.
- Jayden Maiava is USC’s quarterback for 2026, with Riley’s quarterback history giving confidence in his development.
- Riley’s quarterback development is framed as turning potential into high-level college and NFL results.
