USC football gets a Texas-based recruitment and a depth piece on the defensive line
It did not take long for USC recruiting to start out the new week hot. On Monday, the Trojans made an early morning splash, going into the Lone Star State and landing a commitment from three-star defensive lineman Jake Johnson.
Johnson currently plays for Prosper High School in Prosper, Texas. On3 Consensus ranks him as the No. 674 overall player and the No. 61 defensive lineman in the class of 2026.
With the addition of Johnson, USC now holds 21 commits in the class of 2026. Of those 21, more than half are either four or five-stars and ranked among the top 230 players nationally in the class.
Under new general manager Chad Bowden, the Trojans have been extremely aggressive on the recruiting trail. Do not expect that to stop any time soon, as USC continues to add elite talent to its program.
In addition to recruiting the 2026 class, the spring transfer portal window will be huge for the Trojans. Expect Bowden to make some significant moves this spring as USC looks to improve its roster ahead of the 2025 season.
