How could I not include the No. 1 ranked player in USC’s 2020 class who just so happens to be an early enrollee, too?

Gary Bryant Jr. has everything USC needs in a future No. 1 receiver outside of elite size. He stands just 5-foot-10.5 and weighs 165 pounds, but with some time on campus early, he should add some muscle so he doesn’t get dismantled by opposing defenses.

What Bryant Jr. does have, however, is speed and explosiveness. He runs a 4.46 40-yard dash and 4.13 shuttle while possessing a 34-inch vertical. He’s quite the athlete and he’s ranked as the No. 45 overall recruit in the class as well as the seventh-best receiver. Bryan Jr. has also drawn some intriguing comparisons, including one by 247Sports‘ Greg Biggins, stating he reminds him of Robert Woods.

Clay Helton should be able to utilize this talented pass-catcher right away and getting him acclimated to the offense and developing a rapport with Kedon Slovis this spring are key.

The Trojans will have no shortage of wide receiver talent heading into the 2020 season and the incoming class will help with that.
