Brandon Carswell didn’t have too many opportunities to shine at USC, the Bearcats landed a solid set of hands.
Lane Kiffin’s depth chart continues to shrink as sources indicate USC’s wide receiver Brandon Carswell is transferring to Cincinnati to join former USC teammate Vidal Hazelton. The junior WR is free to transfer without sitting a season per USC’s NCAA sanctions. This is the fourth player in as many days to defect from USC because of the heavy sanctions levied against the team.
This isn’t a significant blow for the team as Carswell was very limited in production last season catching only 5 passes for 21 yards. The move should increase his playing time and numbers in the pass happy Cincinnati offense. If anything, Carswell’s departure has more of an emotional impact on the team with the constant chatter of players transferring in the aftermath of the Carroll debacle. The question remains, who’s next?
