USC Signs Levi Jones

USC got a coveted linebacker when Levi Jones, from Westlake, Texas announced he would sign with the Trojans. Jones is a 6-3, 215 pound outside linebacker.  Jones took all five of his official visits in January and was thought to be a Florida lean after his trip to Gainesville ion the middle of the month. Early this morning he made his announcement by peeling off a Florida shirt and then a Florida State shirt until he got down to the USC shirt and proclaimed, “Fight On.”

USC Signs Levi Jones

Jones played at every linebacker position in high school but his videos show his strength at the outside spot with a great edge rush and an ability to get around blocks quickly. His high school was a busy place early in the morning, as a few moments earlier, his teammate, offensive lineman Stephane Zabie, committed to crosstown rival UCLA.
