After spending three seasons as a backup, Miller Moss' patience has officially paid off. In a move that was widely expected, USC head coach Lincoln Riley named Moss the Trojans' starting quarterback Monday ahead of the start of the 2024 season.

Moss, a junior, will step into the sizeable shoes left behind by Caleb Williams, who spent two seasons at USC, won a Heisman Trophy, and threw for over 8,000 yards and 72 touchdowns.
