Korey Foreman Picks USC over Clemson, LSU and Georgia
Korey Foreman, SI All American's No. 4 overall prospect, committed to the University of Southern California on Saturday. He chose USC over Georgia, LSU, Arizona State and Clemson.
He initially committed to Clemson last January, but decided to re-open his recruitment a mere three months later.
Foreman is considered a "can't-miss" recruit. He is a developed 6-foot-4, 240 pounds and is more athletic than a guy his size has any business being. His frame could support even more mass. Strength? He's got that too, regularly putting opposing offensive linemen on their backs.
There are plenty of other large freak athletes, but what separates Foreman from the rest is his football IQ. He could contribute immediately to a lot of D1 programs because he has the instincts and fundamentals to get the most out of his physical traits. Here's the bottom line on Foreman from SI All American:
"Foreman has the profile, athleticism and polish of a potential No. 1 NFL Draft pick along the defensive front. He is a three-down performer who fits multiple defensive schemes at multiple positions, with the chance to be elite at any one of them. His presence should command double teams for the rest of his football career."
Foreman staying home and committing to USC is by far their biggest recruiting win in recent memory. He's instantly a plug-and-play type of player for the Trojans and will provide some momentum with local California kids by selecting USC and continuing to have success leading up to his inevitable departure for the NFL.
