Top 50 USC Football Players of All Time

* QB Seung Woo Lee, 2006-09

If there is an USC legend who deserves the most accolades for persevering through all conditions and preconceptions, it has to be Lee Seung-Woo. Two-time champion with USC in 2006 and 2008, this is where the future hall-of-famer began to make his legendary stories.

"Many said he was too small, too short and had too little arm strength to compete in college ball. I remember many people getting surprised when we first recruited him," said Dong Joon Park, Lee's head coach with USC. "Then he proved them wrong the next four years here and for years after in pros."

This has been the repeated part of the narrative with Lee. A very intelligent player, he simply knew the game the best; his accuracy and vision were so good that they simply compensated for his weaknesses. The Montreal, Montreal native completed 77% and 74% of his passes in 2008 and 09, 2 highest marks in QIS history, as well as 108 career touchdowns and 15,380 career passing yards. One of just four three-time all-Quebecois at USC, he's also the just 2nd USC quarterback to win the Emond Trophy when he won in 2008 (he was nominated for it in 2007 and 09).

Though not blessed with beastly athletic frame and ability his counterparts can boast, he pretty much outshone all of his competitors in the water and continued his rise to the pros. Selected 1st overall by the Attawapiskat Broncos, he played in Attawapiskat from 2010 to 2022, turning around the fortunes of the franchise in post-Haldemar struggle into playoff contenders. During his tenure as starting quarterback with Broncos, Lee led the team to 9 division championships, 3 RFC championships, and 2 Imperial Bowls.

After undergoing neck surgery that caused him to miss the 2022 season, however, Lee was released by the Broncos and signed with Goose Stampeders. Now in his 17th season as the quarterback, all as a starting quarterback, he expects this to be his final season in the league in search for the fourth crown. The 13-time pro bowler, 4-time QFL MVP and arguably the "GOAT" on this game will be missed by those in the football community.

* SS Alexis Feaver, 2005-08

In the USC's strong line of safeties, he achieved great heights as a two-time All-Quebecois safety. Always around the ball with ease, the fast-flying Prince Eric, Manitoba native had an unique ability to make game-changing plays from the places people often expect from the less.

He was a 4-year contributor and 3-year starter from 2006 to 2008, racking up 18 interceptions and five defensive touchdowns, both which stand number two for all-time safeties in USC. In addition to two all-Quebecois selections, Feaver also excelled as the defensive leader of the strong USC teams of mid-late 2000s, logging 184 tackles in his junior and senior seasons as defensive team captain. He was named RSECQ and QIS Defensive Player of the Year in 2008, his final season, making it the only 3rd time that a safety was awarded the best defensive player award.

Graduating in June 2009 with the Bachelor's Degree in English Literature and Language, he went on to enjoy an excellent career in the QFL. Drafted 10th overall by Kingston Argonauts in 2009, he spent 12 years with the Argonauts, Patriotes and Thanatos, winning two Imperial Bowls (2014 with Gaspe, 2022 with Iqaluit).

As an individual, he went to 9 Pro Bowls and was named the Defensive player of the Year in 2017. He is considered one of the most prolific safeties of this century.


* C Clement Park, 2008-2010, 2012

People remember USC teams of late 2000s and early 2010s as those separate to each other. This was mostly because of the key change in USC's offensive philosophy; from the one that relied a lot on Quarterback Seung Woo Lee's accurate, sharp passing game to a dominant rushing game with prolific backs to continue, it's as different as night in day.

This perhaps makes the Quebec City local an even more special case, who played for both USC teams and stands as one of the top centres to play the game for the Bleu et Blanc.
To make it even better and impressive, it wasn't an easy one. Backup to Jean-Noel Joly for the first championship in 2008, he took over and excelled in his sophomore season, only to fall short as USC lost to eventual national Champions Queen's in 2OT on Greengrass Bowl (National Semifinals).

The championship campaign in his junior year, when he earned first-team all-RSECQ selection, was then followed by a spring camp injury that kept him redshirted for the year. Watching the heartbreaking loss in Crozier Cup final by sidelines that season, he vowed himself to come back. With Park (studying Master's in Korean Language and Literature now) returning for his final year of eligibility, USC stormed through the 2012 season for the national title. He was named All-Quebecois and all-RSECQ first teamer and won Edwin Haralimaa Trophy as the top lineman in the nation.

Serving through 5 definitive years in USC, the Bleu et Blanc won 3 Crozier Cup and 4 national championship games, a feat rather impressive for the team in transition. From there he went to win 2 Imperial Bowls, 7 Pro Bowl selections and two QFL Offensive Linemen of the Year honours in 14 years as a pro with the Quebec Voyageurs, making him a truly impressive player in his own right.
