New USC head coach Lincoln Riley has landed his first transfer just a few days ahead of the start of the early signing period. The head coach has gone into Big 12 country and landed former TCU defensive tackle Earl Barquet on Monday night.

The former three-star prospect appeared in 10 games for TCU this past year, recording 12 tackles. In 2020, he had 2.5 sacks in six games for the Horned Frogs.
