Lewis is one of just two ranked 2026 quarterbacks in 247Sports’ database to issue a commitment.
It’s no surprise that Lincoln Riley has landed a top-flight quarterback recruit. He’s produced three Heisman Trophy winners in six years as a coach. The Trojans have been in a good position with Lewis for several months. It came down to USC and Alabama for Lewis, who’s an athletic QB who can hurt teams with his arm as well.
The major question is will Lewis reclassify to the 2025 recruiting class? The Trojans signed Nelson in the 2023 cycle but have no quarterback commits in the 2024 or 2025 classes.Hanging onto Lewis will be of the utmost importance for the Trojans, who know that signing day for the 2026 class is a long way away. Even if Lewis reclassifies to 2025, we’re still looking at a year-plus until the pen hits the paper.
That’s not to suggest that Lewis is a candidate to flip, it’s just worth noting that the earlier a prospect commits to a school, the harder it can be for the school to hang onto him. You can guarantee his other suitors aren’t done reaching out.
