Five-star defensive end Jahkeem Stewart, ranked No. 11 in the 2025 ESPN 300, has committed to USC, becoming the top recruit in Lincoln Riley's 2025 class. Stewart, originally from Louisiana, reclassified from the 2026 class and chose USC over Oregon, Ohio State, and LSU. Despite playing only 12 varsity games due to eligibility issues, Stewart is a highly regarded prospect known for his competitive mindset and versatility on the defensive line. His commitment is a significant boost for USC, which has faced recent decommitments from other top recruits.
