USC Trojans wide receiver Charles Ross has entered the NCAA Transfer Portal, On3 has learned.

He only caught one pass for USC this past season, for 11 yards. Prior, he spent three seasons with the San Jose State Spartans, and one with the Nevada Wolfpack. Moving forward, he’ll be looking for his fourth program.

Ross played high school football at Culver City (Culver City, CA), where he was a three-star prospect. He was the No. 2229 overall recruit in the 2019 cycle, according to the On3 Industry Ranking, a weighted average that utilizes all four major recruiting media companies.

In other USC news related to the transfer portal, former UCF cornerback Chasen Johnson has committed to the Trojans as well, he announced earlier this month.

Johnson logged 14 tackles during his true freshman season with the Knights. He entered the portal after head coach Gus Malzahn left to take Florida State‘s offensive coordinator job. The Trojans beat out the likes of Auburn and SMU for his services. 

He logged statistics in seven games for the Knights in 2024 and was particularly active during the latter half of the regular season. He’ll now look to make a splash in the Trojans secondary in 2025.

Johnson was a three-star recruit in the 2023 recruiting class, according to the On3 Industry Rankings, which is a proprietary algorithm that compiles ratings and rankings from all four primary recruiting media services. He was the No. 1,103 overall player in his class, the No. 118 cornerback, and the No. 147 player in the state of Florida.
