The biggest commitment for USC this week was cornerback Dakoda Fields of Serra High School in Gardena. He’s an athletic 6-foot-2 cornerback, which USC can always use.

However, this is quite a discrepancy. I applaud Rivals to a certain … Continue reading USC Morning Buzz: Have Recruiting Rankings Jumped The Shark?
Kameryn Fountain, a 6-foot-6 defensive end from Atlanta, committed to USC this afternoon as the Trojans picked up their fourth commitment from the weekend recruiting visits.
