USC needs to land Niklas.

Troy Niklas is a converted tight end, playing Offensive Tackle this year for Sevite High School in Anaheim, CA. With a 6'5 frame and weighing in at 265lbs, he has the potential to be even bigger, and USC is in desperate need for lineman as everyone knows. Troy was recently reported saying he is down to USC, Stanford, and Notre Dame and many Trojan fans would love to see him in Cardinal and Gold. The last tight end to be converted to an Offensive Lineman was Aaron Douglas who was at Tennessee with Lane Kiffin who became a Freshman All-American at Tennessee before deciding to transfer out to a JUCO due to Kiffin leaving. Douglas is also a possibility for the Trojans to land, and many think they hold the edge with him having played under most of the current staff. Hopefully the staff can pull in Niklas, and Douglas to boost the talent on the line for the upcoming seasons.
