For the second time in three days, USC football and Eric Henderson have landed a huge transfer portal addition along the defensive line. On Saturday morning, USC landed a commitment from transfer defensive lineman Jamaal Jarrett. Jarrett comes to USC from Georgia, where he spent the past two seasons. He will have two years of eligibility remaining.
Jarrett spent his two seasons with the Bulldogs primarily in a reserve role. At Georgia, he recorded just nine tackles, with no sacks or turnovers forced.
At 6’5” and 350 pounds, however, Jarrett’s potential is clearly there. Now, it will be up to USC defensive line coach Eric Henderson and company to realize it.
Jarrett is USC’s second defensive line addition from an SEC school in the past three days. On Thursday, the Trojans added Keeshawn Silver, formerly of Kentucky.
USC fans will certainly hope that Jarrett will pan out better than the last defensive lineman that the Trojans brought in from Georgia.
