USC’s running backs coach Kiel McDonald has become known as a an excellent talent evaluator and a top shelf recruiter. His biggest strength as it has been shown is his ability to create and maintain relationships. Every running back we talk with always has high praise of McDonald and the way he goes about developing connections and relating to prospects. In the 2024 class, McDonald has one running back committed in McKinney (Tex.) standout Bryan Jackson. Looking ahead to the 2025 class, there are already some prospects who seem to be a bit higher of a pedestal for McDonald. Taking visits, quotes, and social media interaction into effect, we can identify three names as of right now that are atop the board for USC. Overall, USC has offered 12 running backs.
