Over the weekend we released a post-spring projected depth chart. We believe this best reflects how the coaches have it (in pencil) as they prepare for the beginning of training camp in August. There are a number of possibilities, of course, and USC will conduct nearly 30 practices before it plays Alabama in the season opener.
With that in mind, I want to present my ideal starting lineup and encourage you to do the same below. Feel free to change the personnel packages however you wish (e.g. put Adoree' Jackson on offense; add fullback, extra tight end, defensive lineman, defensive back, etc.). My lineup is predicated on what appears to be the base offense and defense. Also, I'm not listing return specialists because we didn't see any live returns in spring, but you are welcome to include them. Enjoy!

Again, this is my personal lineup coming out of spring practice. I'm sure it will change after fall practice. What's yours?
