USC enters the 2023 season with hopes of making the playoffs.
The offense, led by Heisman-winning quarterback Caleb Williams, did enough to give the Trojans a chance.
But this does not happen with the defense.
According to ESPN, USC head coach Lincoln Riley announced the firing of defensive coordinator Alex Grich on Sunday.
The Grinch has been Riley’s defensive coordinator since the 2019 season, when they were with the Oklahoma Sooners.
The Grinch joins USC when Riley takes over as head coach in 2022.
