Shamar Arnoux could be a reputation-changing commit for USC football

The USC football program is trying to change perception and reality under the new defensive coaching staff. One thing which will help is that Taylor Mays now gets a more hands-on role with the coaching staff. New recruits such as Shamar Arnoux stand to benefit from what Mays can provide. We wrote about Mays and the new landscape he faces several days ago:

The NCAA Division I Council just approved the removal of limits on coaching staffs, both in terms of the number of coaches who can provide on-field instruction and in terms of allowing analysts and lower-tier staffers to be able to provide direct coaching. At USC, this is a huge story for a number of reasons. One is that this unshackles Taylor Mays, who has been a defensive analyst but has not been a position coach except for his interim role with the secondary in the Holiday Bowl before Doug Belk took over. Taylor Mays now gets to coach the secondary much more directly under Belk. That’s a big boost for USC and should instantly upgrade the secondary.

We talked about the Shamar Arnoux commitment, the Julian Lewis angle to his recruitment, and how this can begin to change reality for USC in the secondary and on the defense as a whole. The discussion on Arnoux is at 4:40 in the video below on our recent USC show at The Voice of College Football:
