Already poised to turn over most of its offensive line, USC now will have to replace its offensive coach as well.
Josh Henson, who spent the last three seasons leading USC’s offensive line, is leaving to become the offensive coordinator at Purdue, a person familiar with the decision told The Times. While he technically carried the same title at USC, at Purdue, he’ll step into a larger play-calling role for new Boilermakers coach Barry Odom, who previously coached alongside Henson at Missouri.
Henson’s three seasons make him the longest tenured offensive line coach at USC in a decade.
