Marqise Lee announces he is leaving USC for NFL Draft

Marqise Lee USC

USC wide receiver Marqise Lee announced on Twitter Friday that he would be foregoing his senior year to enter the NFL Draft.

Lee accumulated 248 receptions, 3,655 yards and 29 touchdowns in his three years at USC. Lane Kiffin made him the focal point of the offense in 2012, resulting in him putting up monstrous stats — 118 catches, 1,721 yards and 14 touchdowns. But after Matt Barkley complained that the offense focused too much on Lee, USC balanced things out more this season. That combined with Lee missing a few games with injuries resulted in a dropoff in his stats. Still, Lee will likely be a first-round pick.
