Who will step up at left tackle for USC?

LA Times  

When Alijah Vera-Tucker slid over to left tackle last season, stepping into a spot vacated by an NFL draft first-rounder, there was little doubt that USC’s top interior lineman was its best option on the blindside. Jalen McKenzie will enter this season as one of the Trojans’ most experienced linemen and will be “in the mix” to switch to left tackle, coach Clay Helton said. Since their arrivals, Helton said he’s been “pleasantly pleased” with wideout KD Nixon, running back Keaontay Ingram and safety Xavian Alford, all of whom will probably vie for major roles in the coming months. Notes Six months since he was first suspended amid an investigation into EDD fraud on campus, sophomore wideout Munir McClain is still on USC’s roster, but remains suspended, Helton said.
