USC ranks in top six in 2024 average prospect rating
USC is ramping up for a wildly busy month of June filled with official visits from some of the top prospects in the 2024 class. The Trojans have started out slower in this cycle than some other top programs with only three commits to date. That being said, despite the lack of booming numbers to this point, USC is acquiring some top notch talent.
With three commitments in the fold, USC is currently ranked No. 18 in the 2024 Team Recruiting Rankings. The current class is sitting at a score of 89.239.
However, USC ranks No. 6 in the 2024 class in average prospect rating. The Trojans have an average prospect rating of 90.56.
The only schools ahead of USC are Alabama (93.88), Florida (92.63), Ohio State (91.94), Georgia (91.74), and South Carolina (90.91).
More on the current class for USC
To date, the three commitments in the 2024 class are Los Angeles (Cal.) Sierra Canyon four-star Xavier Jordan, Lake Oswego (Ore.) Lakeridge four-star tight end Joey Olsen, and McKinney (Tex.) three-star running back Bryan Jackson.
Also, as of right now, there are 20 prospects in the class of 2024 who are currently favored in the On3 Recruiting Prediction Machine to land with USC. A good portion of them visited USC this spring and/or are planning official visits in the summer.
The Trojans are currently set to host 32 official visitors in the month of June, primarily scheduled for two major visit weekends. The staff will hope for similar success as last cycle when they landed more than 10 of their June official visitors.
USC finished the 2023 class ranked inside the top-10 and Lincoln Riley and staff have started off on the right foot with an opportunity to repeat that feat in the 2024 class.
2024 BIG 10 Rankings
