Dartmouth transfer guard Ryan Cornish has committed to USC, he told On3.

The 6-foot-4 grad transfer and First Team All-Ivy selection averaged 17.1 points, 4.9 rebounds, and 3.3 assists per game this season. He shot 41.3% from the field and 37.2% from three.

Less than a week ago, Trojans head coach Eric Musselman landed a commitment from High Point transfer guard Kezza Giffa, who was only committed to the program for less than 48 hours. He later chose Ole Miss.

Cornish, who visited Tennessee earlier this week, is USC’s ninth addition via the tranfser portal this offseason. He joins UNC Acheville PG transfer Jordan Marsh, Auburn SF transfer Chad Baker-Mazara, Maryland SG transfer Rodney Rice, Utah PF transfer Ezra Ausar, Youngstown State transfer C Gabe Dynes, Samford transfer PF Jaden Brownell, Robert Morris transfer SF Amarion Dickerson, and Virginia transfer PF Jacob Cofie.

The Trojans will also bring in two freshmen — five-star SG Alijah Arenas and four-star CG Jerry Easter.

Eric Musselman’s squad ranks No. 5 overall in the On3 Industry Team Recruiting Rankings.

USC finished with an overall record of 17-18 this past season and 12th in the Big Ten in Musselman’s first year at the helm.
