USC football is set to lose yet another highly-touted player due to transfer, though the decision of linebacker Oluwole Betiku to play elsewhere comes after years of injury woes and limited playing time.
Betiku announced his transfer decision on Monday night, just before kickoff of the national title game.
“I would like to thank coach Helton and the USC football program for the opportunity over the past 3 seasons. As for my future plans, I look to pursue my masters degree and further my football career at another institution. To my teammates, family and friends, thank you for your love and support,” Betiku tweeted.
