USC football was among the many teams who lined up and sent offers to Trinity Camp Hill (Pennsylvania) running back Messiah Mickens, but when it was time to decide, he opted to commit to the Penn State Nittany Lions. However, he will now be arriving in the college football scene until 2026, leaving the door technically open for the potential for him to change his heart.
Could USC football be a destination for Mickens? That’s unlikely to know at the moment, but anyone hoping for that to happen will have their spirits buoyed up a little bit by what Mickens said about a recent visit with the Trojans.
