After transforming USC's struggling defense in a single season, rising star defensive coordinator D'Anton Lynn has signed a contract extension to remain at USC, the university announced Thursday.
Lynn was believed to be a leading candidate for the open coordinator job at Penn State, where he once played cornerback, after the Nittany Lions' last defensive coordinator, Tom Allen, took the open job at Clemson.
USC allowed 10 fewer points per game under Lynn in 2024, leaping from 121st in the nation in points allowed last season (34.4 per game) to a respectable 56th (24.1).
