USC picked up another local prospect on Saturday when Loyola High School cornerback Ceyair Wright announced his commitment to the Trojans during the "All-American Bowl: Declaration Day” broadcast.
Wright chose USC over offers from Notre Dame, Michigan, and Oregon.
The 6-foot, 175-pound talent is the sixth-best cornerback and ninth-ranked prospect in the state of California, according to ESPN. The Los Angeles native is also noted for his speed in the 100-meter dash during his high school career.
The addition of Wright provides the Trojans with their second blue-chip defensive back signing along with safety/athlete Anthony Beavers. Head coach Clay Helton continues to make recruiting in the Golden State a priority, gaining his 11th commitment from the area.
USC now adds to its cornerback group that features standout Chris Steele.
The Trojans finished this past season with a 5-1 record before opting out of a prospective bowl game due to the coronavirus pandemic.
