We have a huge flip in the recruitment class of 2026. Jonas Williams fell Oregon has USC.
The four-star quarter of Frankfort (Ill.) Lincoln Way East joined Oregon last August LSU, Alabama and Ohio State. Trojan horses were not really in the photo at that time. But everything changed for Williams after visiting the USC for a Junior Day recently.
Williams is the tenth engagement of the 2026 class for the Trojan horses and the first quarter. It instantly becomes one of the jewelry of the renovated Trojan horses cycle.
What Williams means for USC
It is a huge affair that the USC succeeded in this reversal for several reasons. First of all, Williams is a fantastic perspective. He is one of the best players and quarters of the whole country. So landing a player of this caliber is always a big problem. But secondly, widing a player from a rival in your conference so much means.
Not only do Trojan horses get a great player, but they hold it far from Oregon. Ducks were a major problem for the USC on the recruitment path since coach Dan Lanning took over the program. This could be a signal that the USC returns the tide in the other direction in these battles with the ducks.
The last point to follow here is that the USC added another great Midwest player. If the Trojan horses will be elite in the big ten, they will have to obtain talents from the traditional imprint of Big Ten. Williams joins the four -star defensive ensemble Braeden Jones As a native of Chicagoland in the class. Trojan horses are also in the mixture for several other players in the region.
What Williams brings to Trojan horses
I have seen Williams playing several times in person in the past two years. The growth of his game was clear. He works well in the pocket and throws the ball with power but is also precise. Williams also launches the ball with good anticipation, which helps his receivers to go out.
But the thing that could make it special is an ability to improvise. Williams is a good athlete and launches the ball in the race well. It can also be used in the RPO match because it is more than capable of breaking the big points as we saw doing during its junior season. Williams has the ability to be a multi -year starter at the USC and Blossom under Lincoln Riley coaching.
