The Trojans head coach, seeking an elite interior defensive lineman like Rams star Aaron Donald, brought in the Georgia transfer for his size and burst
The bout was over before their hands even touched, because Nevada’s Josh Castro was simply in no position to mess with a Bear.
What’s excited USC coaches about Georgia transfer Bear Alexander, what’s stood out so plainly from his practice reps and lining up during drills, is not just his size but the burst. At his best, he’s out of his block a half-second quicker than anyone on the line, a 300-pound canary on his feet hurtling toward opposing centers like an asteroid entering orbit.
This, plain and simple, is who USC’s been waiting for, ever since head coach Lincoln Riley came back from watching Georgia’s defensive line at the CFP National Championship and that “our guys don’t look like that.” So they snagged Alexander in the transfer portal, quite literally a guy who did look like that his freshman year at Georgia but played inconsistently.
