As the USC fan base went through the stages of reaction to starting quarterback JT Daniels' season-ending knee injury Saturday night, it didn't take long for the questions to turn toward the future and how this affects 2020 4-star QB commit Bryce Young.

Alabama has been aggressively pursuing Young for a while, trying to flip his commitment, and many wondered how this unexpected Trojans QB news affects his standing.
