Bradenton (Fla.) IMG Academy four-star linebacker Nathaniel Owusu-Boateng made his way out to Los Angeles this weekend to visit USC. He posted a photo with Trojans head coach Lincoln Riley on social media Saturday evening.

USC offered Owusu-Boateng back in May 2022.

“I am taking everything day by day,” Owusu-Boateng told On3’s Chad Simmons. “I am not planning to commit over the summer, so I am taking my time. Around December, when it gets close to Signing Day, I want to get my list down to five schools. Right now, it is really early for me. I am in no rush and I am taking my time with recruiting. I am still open to all schools.”

WeAreSC spoke with Owusu-Boateng back in March.

“I was actually talking to USC yesterday,” Owusu-Boateng told WeAreSC. “So, I do plan on getting out there for an OV (official visit) and maybe also a spring practice. Just knowing all of the stuff they have to offer outside of football. Football can only last you so long. So, Just knowing that they (USC) can provide for me on and off the field.”

Currently, Owusu-Boateng has official visits scheduled to South Carolina (May 31), Stanford (June 6), Georgia (June 14) and Michigan (June 21).

In late April, he cut his list to 13 schools: Ohio State, Florida, Florida State, Georgia, Louisville, Miami, Michigan, Notre Dame, Oregon, South Carolina, Stanford, Texas and USC.

Owusu-Boateng is the nation’s No. 62 overall prospect, No. 4 linebacker and No. 8 recruit from Florida in the 2025 cycle according to the On3 Industry Ranking — a weighted average that utilizes all four major recruiting media companies.
