USC coach Clay Helton said on Monday that the redshirt freshman looks “extremely comfortable” and that he made “a major step forward” during the Trojans’ first live scrimmage action. But as McCoy makes that long-awaited leap, the question arises how quickly he might work into an especially deep USC rotation at receiver. AdvertisementLike last season, the Trojans have a cemented top-three at receiver, with Amon-ra St. Brown and Tyler Vaughns on the outside and Drake London in the slot. His trajectory could be a reasonable model for what to expect from McCoy this season. McCoy appears to be the furthest along of USC’s young receivers this season, though he’s hardly the only one earning early plaudits.
