USC has offered Rancho Santa Margarita (Calif.) Santa Margarita Catholic linebacker LeVar Talley.

Talley now has three offers — all from college football blue bloods and all coming over the past few days.

Georgia offered Talley on Nov. 3, and then Florida State did the same thing on Nov. 7.

The Trojans have one commit in the 2024 cycle in Long Beach (Calif.) Long Beach Poly wide receiver Jason Robinson. USC also has a commit in the 2025 cycle in Orange (Calif.) athlete Arron White. Both players committed to USC on the same day in September.

LeVar Talley is teammates with elite 2022 lineman Hero Kanu

Four-star defensive lineman Hero Kanu and LeVar Talley have lined up on the same defense for Santa Margarita Catholic this fall.

Talley has 24 total tackles and is second on the team in sacks with 4.5 and quarterback hurries with 10. He trails only Kanu in both of those categories.

Kanu has nine sacks and 15 quarterback hurries on top of 51 total tackles and 18.0 tackles for loss.

The native of Germany is the No. 112 overall recruit in the 2022 class, according to the On3 Consensus, a complete and equally weighted industry-generated average that utilizes all four major recruiting media companies. He is choosing between Georgia, Notre Dame, Ohio State and Oklahoma. Kanu has said he will announce his decision in early January.

But first, Kanu and LeVar Talley will go up against one of the most potent offenses in California. Santa Margarita Catholic faces Anaheim Servite in the state playoffs Friday night.

Anaheim Servite is led by three-star quarterback Noah Fifita, four-star wide receiver Tetairoa McMillan and four-star tight end Keyan Burnett.

Fiftia and Burnett are both committed to Arizona, while McMillan — the highest rated of the three at No. 56 — is an Oregon verbal.
