USC football: Unofficial scholarship count ahead of 2023 season

Any time the Trojans make a new addition or someone leaves the program, this story will be updated

Bookmark this page. We're keeping track of USC football's unofficial list of scholarship players this offseason. Any time the Trojans make a new addition or someone leaves the program, this story will be updated. 

USC unofficially has 84 scholarship players either on campus or officially signed as of May 10, which is one under the FBS limit of 85. Players will leave in the future and they may not make it public, which is why this is an unofficial count. 

Broken down by position, here's the list of scholarship players currently expected to be with the team in 2023.
