In an apparent ripple effect in the college football recruiting cycle, quarterback Julian Lewis decommitted from Southern California, according to multiple reports, and fellow five-star Husan Longstreet announced he has flipped from Texas A&M to the Trojans on Sunday afternoon.

Lewis, who had verbally committed to USC in August 2023, is a senior at Carrollton (Ga.) High School after reclassifying from the Class of 2026. Lewis is ranked second in the ESPN 300 for the Class of 2025, while the No. 31 player in the country, No. 5 quarterback and No. 6 player in Georgia, according to the 247Sports composite rankings.

He took an unofficial visit to Georgia on Saturday, watching the Bulldogs beat Tennessee, and Lewis also visited Colorado on Oct. 26. Indiana also has gotten his interest.

Longstreet, who had committed to Texas A&M in April, announced on social media Sunday that he will play for in-state USC. The senior at Centennial High in Corona, is the No. 34 player, No. 6 QB and second-ranked player in California, according to the 247Sports Composite.

The No. 47 player in the 2025 ESPN Top 300, Longstreet and his team won a state playoff game on Friday night with Trojans quarterbacks coach Luke Huard in attendance. Longstreet then attended USC's home game in Los Angeles against Nebraska on Saturday.

The early signing period begins on Dec. 4.
