USC Football: Top National Signing Day targets
By Jordan Luth
2. Aubrey Solomon, 5-Star DT (Leesburg, GA)
USC made the cut on Aubrey Solomon’s final list of schools. While that may seem great, they are not at the top. It seems unlikely for USC to land the 5-Star stand out defensive tackle. If they are able to to pull it off, USC’s 2017 class would look even more impressive than it already is.
In USC’s way are the likes of Nick Saban and Jim Harbaugh. Solomon made visits to both Alabama and Michigan back in November and made his official visit to USC back on Jan. 13.
On Jan. 23, the top defensive tackle according to 247Sports, Marlon Tuipulotu, committed to USC. If USC could also bring in Aubrey Solomon, they could potentially bring in two of the top defensive tackles in the 2017 class. It would be a huge win for the Trojans. Of course this all depends on Solomon picking USC over Alabama or Michigan.
While the chances of him picking USC are slim, it is still a real possibility. As for Solomon, he stands at 6-foot-3, 288 pounds. He is a massive force on the football field. A potential game changer on the defensive side of the ball.
He is ranked No. 30 overall and as the 3rd best defensive tackle in his class. Both rankings are according to 247Sports.
