Two USC defensive targets wrap up visits

By Phil Kornblut

USC is hoping to add to the incoming 2016 class with one or two more defensive players and two targets, DE Josiah Coatney of Holmes JC, MS and DE Mykelle McDaniel of Loganville, GA made official visits over the weekend. Neither committed and both have other visits planned.

Coatney said they had the chance to see the campus and facilities and watch spring practice and everything checked out on the positive side with him.

"I got to see what they were looking like depthwise," Coatney said. "I got to talk with Coach Muschamp about what they are looking for and what they are looking for out of me. He said h needed me. He wants to win now Overall though, it was a great trip. I enjoyed myself a lot."

Coatney said he and McDaniel hung out together with other members of the defense and the two of them got to know one another knowing they could be teammates at USC one day. '

"He said he's looking at some other schools, too, but he said he enjoyed it a lot," Coatney said. "We had a good time hanging out with all the players."

Coatney doesn't plan to make a decision until the first week in April. This week he's planning to take an unofficial visit to Mississippi State. He is going to Ole Miss officially April 1st, Florida April 8th and Alabama April 15th. He's not claiming a favorite at this point.

McDaniel has been to Georgia unofficially and is going to visit Texas A&M next weekend. Alabama has also showed interest in him. He has had USC and Georgia as his top two.
