USC Lands Top Running Back Recruit Justin Davis

LOS ANGELES  - Justin Davis, the top running back from the state of California, has verbally committed to USC.

The 6-foot-1, 195-pound Justin Davis stand out selected the Trojans over California and Washington.

Davis enjoyed a monstrous season as a junior year in helping to lead Lincoln to an 11-2 record. He carried the ball 274 times, amassing 2,380 yards and 36 touchdowns.

He earned All-Sac-Joaquin Section and All-state honors and will likely be a Top 100 recruit before long.

Davis joins a recruiting class that features Max Browne, Kenny Bigelow, and Ty Isaac, another star running back who committed to the Trojans this week.

Sanctions have not affected USC's recruiting in the slightest, as Lane Kiffin has been able to continue to attract elite recruits seemingly at will.
