Foreman is a defensive end from Centennial High School in Corona, Ca. He chose the Trojans over the likes of Clemson, Georgia, Alabama, and LSU.

Getting the top-ranked recruit is a big win for USC coach Clay Helton. It’s even better that it’s a local star, as USC has had issues keeping California talent from leaving the state in recent years. Considering how awful recruiting was a year ago, this is a huge improvement and a big boost for the program.
