USC Football: Top National Signing Day targets
By Jordan Luth
1. Joseph Lewis, 5-Star WR (Los Angeles, CA)
Of all the players left, Joseph Lewis is at the top of USC’s recruiting board. He is right in their backyard and has USC as his top choice at the moment.
Nebraska seemed to have Lewis for a long time. He went on his official visit to Nebraska back on Oct. 1. He would also go and visit Oregon on Oct. 8. Lewis made his last visit of the recruitment process to USC on Jan.27.
As he showed in high school, Joseph Lewis has big play potential. Whether that be with his speed or catching the ball in crowded spaces and making something out of nothing.
Since his visit to USC, it appears that the Los Angeles native may be stay right at home. Lewis is right in USC’s back yard. Being able to pick up Lewis, a 5-star, U.S Army All-American, would be huge. With the loss of their top receiver, JuJu Smith-Schuster, to the NFL draft, getting Lewis would be a huge win.
It also appears the Lewis likes USC just as much as they like him. Lewis tweeted out about USC right before their Rose Bowl game.
This would be one of, if not the biggest pick up for the Trojans on National Signing Day. Lewis is ranked as the 31st best player overall and the 4th best player at his position, according to 247Sports composite.
