USC quarterback Husan Longstreet shows why he will be successful at BOSS Showcase

As things stand now, Jayden Maiava is USC's QB1. It is the junior's job to lose. That is not preventing many Trojan fans from expressing their desire to watch true freshman Husan Longstreet be handed the keys to the kingdom early.

Longstreet was a five-star recruit coming out of Centennial High School. He earned a number of accolades and had national interest from top programs around the country.

His playmaking ability is known and there for all to see. An aspect that would not be as readily noticeable is Longstreet's approach and mindset.

In a shared clip from Arrogant Nation on X, the current Trojan spoke at the 2025 BOSS Showcase on part of what drives him to be great. The quarterback shared an important message. While he is already accomplished in his own right, Longstreet also spoke on the need to remain diligent and not get caught up in the flair or antics that can often come with being a high-profile athlete. 

BOSS stands for Business of Student Success. Aiming to help youth in areas that nurture inspiration, aid, and growth, the programs that BOSS offers have helped to provide a direct positive difference for thousands of children.

Having Longstreet as a speaker, the quarterback showed a depth of wisdom beyond his years. In a message that could truly apply to anyone of all walks of life, the QB gave details of what his everyday day-to-day life is like and how he remains grounded in the process of daily development.

Bright future ahead for USC quarterback

Far from the glamorous, dreamlike scenario that can often be perceived when watching the top players on countless commercials and in the headlines, Longstreet included his early morning routine that involves a workout before the actual workout itself.

Regardless of what happens in 2025 or moving forward, it is this type of dedication that will enable Longstreet to find success in some form. USC is fortunate to have people like him on the roster.
