“I like USC a lot,” Pierce told On3’s WeAreSC earlier this spring. “I really like the coaching staff, I had a really good visit the last time in January and I think I’m visiting again in March. I like the environment, the coaches are all really cool and it’s USC. It’s kind of the hometown team and they’re up there and I like USC a lot.”
Christian Pierce is the Trojans’ sixth commitment in the 2023 class, joining a group that currently ranks No. 2 nationally in the On3 Consensus Team Recruiting Rankings.
