Despite tight scholarship numbers thanks to lingering NCAA sanctions, it appears USC will be bringing in a transfer to its football program, although this one may not actually “count” toward its limit.
According to Scott Wolf of the Los Angeles Daily News, tight end J.T. Kerr has decided to leave Nebraska and transfer to USC. Not only that, but Wolf reports that Kerr will move from TE to fullback.
Neither school has confirmed the move, and the rumor is Kerr may be a non-scholarship-type player, at least initially.
After redshirting his true freshman season in 2009 and not playing in 2010 due to a variety of injuries, Kerr... well... didn’t play in 2011, either.
Kerr was a three-star member of the Cornhuskers’ 2009 recruiting class coming out of Scripps Ranch High School in San Diego.
