UNC-Asheville transfer guard Jordan Marsh commits to USC

Former UNC-Asheville guard Jordan Marsh has committed to USC out of the NCAA transfer portal, per On3’s Joe Tipton. He began his career at Appalachian State, playing one season at each program.

Marsh is one of the top transfers in the portal this cycle, ranking as the No. 110 overall prospect in the On3 transfer portal rankings. He averaged 18.1 points per game, along with 4.2 rebounds and 3.7 assists during the 2024-25 season while arting 29 of the 32 games he appeared in, along with averaging 28.7 minutes per game.

During his lone season at Appalachian State, Marsh came off the bench in all but one of the 32 games he played for the Mountaineers. He averaged 6.2 points per game in a limited role for the program, but had a breakout season last year after his transfer.

At UNC-Asheville last season, Marsh went on to score in double figures in all but five games. He scored his career-high of 33 points in an overtime loss against High Point in February. Impressively, he only turned the ball over once during the contest despite handling the ball for the majority of the game. However, he did average 2.3 turnovers per game as his first full season as a starter.

He’s joining a USC team that has a top-15 transfer portal class as of his commitment. Marsh is officially the eighth player to announce his transfer to head coach Eric Musselman and the Trojans. He joins guard Rodney Rice (No. 40 overall transfer), and forwards Chad Baker-Mazara, Ezra Ausar, Gabe Dynes, Jaden Brownell, Amarion Dickerson and Jacob Cofie.

The Trojans are entering year two of having Musselman at the helm of the program. They finished the season 17-18 overall, including a 7-13 record against conference opponents. While they didn’t make the NCAA Tournament, USC’s season ended in the second round of the College Basketball Crown after losing to Villanova 60-59. The Trojans will look to improve on that finish this coming season.
