The No. 1 safety for the class of 2025 made his commitment decision today and he is going to be playing for the USC Trojans.

Anquon Fegans (Alabaster, AL) is a top-ten player in the class of 2025 and was a target for Georgia Tech. His brother, Alabama transfer Tre'Quon Fegans, was recently on a visit to Georgia Tech and the Yellow Jackets were hoping to land both players, but they are going to be playing for Lincoln Riley and USC.

Fegans is a player in the 2025 class so there is a long way to go and Georgia Tech could always make up ground, especially if they exceed expectations in 2023, but it will be hard to beat the Trojans here.

Here is the scouting report on Fegans from 247Sports director of scouting Andrew Ivins:

"A good-looking safety prospect that already has some valuable experience under his belt having gotten varsity snaps as a freshman for Alabama’s 7A state champs. Well-put together at 6-foot-1, 180 pounds, but nowhere close to being maxed out, and could eventually push 200 pounds or more once lifting college. Has been utilized mainly as a deep safety early on in the prep career, but has also doubled as a nickel defender in certain situations. Tends to hold his own in man-to-man coverage and has shown that he can jump routes during offseason 7-on-7 play. Rather serviceable as an open-field tackler and seems to understand that the lower man often wins more times than not. Competitive on special teams and should offer value in both kick and punt coverage at the college of his choice. Must keep learning and evolving as a player, but the ability to quickly read and diagnose and then put himself in position to make a play is very promising. Could eventually move closer to the line of scrimmage depending on how his body fills out, but has most of the skills required to emerge as a multi-year contributor in the back seven at a top 25 program."

The 2024 class for Georgia Tech is headlined by four-star quarterback Jakhari Williams (Macon, GA). Williams has been the building block for Key in this class and is going to be the quarterback of the future for the Yellow Jackets.
