Five-star linebacker Xavier Griffin has decommitted from Southern California's 2026 recruiting class.

The Gainesville, Ga., native committed to the Trojans' top-ranked class last July but reopened his recruiting on Wednesday ahead of the summer official visit window.

The 6-foot-4, 205-pound Griffin has upcoming visits scheduled to Ohio State, Alabama, Texas and Florida State.

Ranked as the No. 2 linebacker and No. 22 prospect overall by the 247Sports composite, Griffin recorded 21 sacks during his sophomore and junior seasons at Gainesville High School.
