Minnesota grad transfer DE Gaelin Elmore had planned to announce his decision for his final college season Friday afternoon but he has delayed that until next week. Elmore visited USC, Houston, Arizona and East Carolina. He said Thursday night he will put out a final two Friday and USC will not make the cut.
USC quarterbacks coach Kurt Roper was in on Wednesday to visit QB Chase Wolf of Cincinnati. Duke also was in for a visit. He visited USC in March.
