After a somewhat slow start, the Trojans’ 2027 recruiting class is quickly heating up

After getting off to a somewhat slow start, USC’s 2027 recruiting class is beginning to heat up. Earlier this month, the Trojans landed five-star athlete Honor Fa’alave-Johnson , who is expected to play defensive back in college. Now, they have added another highly-touted DB to the class.

On Wednesday, USC picked up a commitment from four-star cornerback Danny Lang. Per Rivals’s industry ranking , Lang is the No. 75 overall player and the No.

10 cornerback in the class of 2027. He chose USC over Oregon and Ohio State. Lang comes to the Trojans from noted USC pipeline program Mater Dei High School in Santa Ana, California.

Other notable players to come to USC from Mater Dei include Matt Leinart, Matt Barkley, and Amon-Ra St. Brown. In addition, Aaryn Washington—another USC cornerback commit in the 2027 cycle—also played at Mater Dei (although he will be transferring to IMG Academy in Florida for his final season of high school football).
