College Note - Southern California Anthony Lucas

Los Angeles Times

USC no longer has the nation's sack leader to lean on, and for a defense that finished among the worst in the nation in spite of Tuli Tuipulotu's presence, that's a scary thought. How the Trojans rebuild that pass rush will be a pressing question this spring. Could Anthony Lucas be the answer? A former five-star prospect, Lucas definitely looks the part at 6-6, 270 pounds, but he barely got on the field as a freshman for Texas A&M. USC is hoping a change of scenery could unlock Lucas. If it doesn't, the options on the edge are awfully limited. Romello Height is returning from an injury. Korey Foreman has yet to figure it out. It gets thin in a hurry after that. - Los Angeles Times
