The Blue Board

Its no lie USC QBs have struggled in the Nfl. Sanchez, Leinart, John David Booty, Palmer was good PreInjury, but u get the point. A big reason some have said they struggled in the nfl, was because it was just too easy for them, USC had crazy talent during the PC Era, all those QBs played with Elite skill players, great Olines, & good defenses. And the Pac was not as good as it is now. All those QBs rarely lost, Leinart had 2 losses, JDB 3, Sanchez 2.

Barkley on the other hand, not so much. He's been threw tough times at SC. His Frosh yearhe had decent talent around him, a horrible D, & 4 losses. Sanctions come next year, new coach, still a horrible D, his skill players are OK, lost 4 more games. Jr year, the emmergence of Lee/Woods, a great Oline, & a decent D, he goes 10-2. This year, he had Elite skill players, but a Crap D & Oline. I think the Oline had a lot to do with his struggles this year. & Kiffin being his head coach.

What kind of nfl player will Barkley become? Unlike the other SC qbs, hes dealt with hard times, losses. While he had good talent, not talent like the others had. If he slides in the draft and goes to a team like Dallas, or AZ, I could see him being a good QB in the nfl. Hes had a crappy senior year, so he may be getting underated a little. He may only measure in at 6'1. Theres no doubt he has talent, and is still the #1 QB in the draft.
