2027 Oregon Commit’s Cryptic ‘Cannonball’ Shot Ignites USC Rivalry Firestorm
Oregon, USC battling for top recruiting class
The Ducks and Trojans have stretched their rivalry into the Big Ten. Both battled for Pac-12 supremacy before moving out of the conference for the 2024 season.
Now their bitterness has spilled over to the college football recruiting trail. USC has put together the nation’s top-ranked recruiting class for 2026. But that was a title Oregon held at the start of the year.
The Trojans and head coach Lincoln Riley began to siphon away Oregon commits. USC poached four-star quarterback Jonas Williams from the Ducks in February. But the Trojans weren’t through raiding the Ducks’ ’26 class. Prized offensive lineman Tomuhini Topui flipped to USC after originally choosing the Big Ten champs. Topui revealed his change of heart on April 1.
