FYI, USC is his "dream" school but I dont see an offer coming with the amount of LB talent they have.
You must be looking at different eligibility chart than Scout's then.
It would seem to me there is plenty of room opening up after the 2008 season. (They took two LBs, WLB, in their 2008 class).

This isn't to mean that USC would offer him. A much likelier reason for the lack of an offer is that USC had higher-ranked prospects in their sights. Such as the #1 ranked national and #4 ranked national MLBs who have committed and the #2 ranked MLB who carries a Trojan offer.

Now if what you meant was "amount of talent USC will have" then let's just say this post underscores your argument. :wink2:

Not to say Darius won't get an offer, because he looks to have all the tools, but I see us taking 4 guys at LB this year and all should be shored up fairly quickly. We have Klein and Whiting in already, a VERY good chance to reel in Dorian Bell (possibly as early as a Spring Game commit) and then there is Quan Fletcher out of Dr. Krop. Moffett also looks to have the size to play the LEO/DE/LB position, but that is probably going to be taken by Jon Newsome sooner or later. With so much talent "in the fold" already or almost, Moffett is probably an Illini signee come NLOID.
