USC’s football program has wrapped spring practice. Players will look to maintain compatibility and examine scenes before August preseason camp opens, leading up to the big season opener against LSU on Labor Day weekend in Las Vegas. Of all the Trojans he participated in spring practice, catcher Ja’Kobi Lane stood out in the eyes of many teammates and coaches. USC linebacker Easton Mascarenas-Arnold, who will likely start on the Trojans’ defense in 2024, knew Lane as the spring camp “MVP. “
Lane’s rise is due to a number of apparent reasons. The first is that Miller Moss wants all the help he can get this season. He’s not a Caleb Williams-style Superman-style quarterback who can make all kinds of improv plays. Moss has to play from the structure, with his teammates opening up for him.
Another central explanation for why Lane wants something for USC in 2024 is that in 2023, receivers Dorian Singer and Mario Williams haven’t been as good. The Trojans need four receivers who play well consistently. In the past year, only two: Brenden Rice and Tahj Washington have become reliable weekly targets. If Lane steps in and joins Makai Lemon, Zachariah Branch, Kyle Ford and hybrid catcher Duce Robinson as consistent producers, Moss deserves to have a wonderful year and USC will be able to thrive.
A third explanation for why Ja’Kobi Lane wants to be elite for USC: LSU, the opponent in Week 1, had a Swiss cheese secondary last year. USC will have to function as LSU’s secondary. The lane can simply be a central vehicle to achieve this goal.
