USC standout Emmanuel Pregnon reverses course and enters transfer portal

Not long after his return was lauded as a major coup for Lincoln Riley and USC, the Trojans’ top returning lineman has decided instead to enter the transfer portal.

It was just a few weeks ago that new offensive line coach Zach Hanson proudly announced in his first meeting with reporters that Emmanuel Pregnon, the Trojans’ two-year starting left guard, was coming back to anchor a young USC offensive line. But after playing in the Trojans’ bowl win over Texas A&M, Pregnon decided to continue his college career elsewhere.
