One of the many recent offers sent out by USC was to class of 2025 defensive lineman Jyon Simon out of Jacksonville (Fla.) Raines.

Simon is a prospect who is beginning to pick up a fair amount of buzz on the recruiting trail. To this time, he holds offers from USC, Texas, Arkansas, Maryland, Auburn, Georgia Tech, Western Kentucky, Florida A&M.

USC, along with Texas, are the two biggest brands to offer Simon to this point.

“It was such a surprise,” says Simon.

In my conversation with him about the offer, Simon explained how the offer came to be.

“I started getting a lot of followers by the USC staff early in the week and I actually got a text from USC defensive line coach, Coach Nua, asking how I was doing. He also asked me if California was too far and I replied saying “no sir definitely not.”

“As the week went along I kept getting cool USC graphics. Then I talked to Coach BAW (Bryson-Allen Williams) and Coach Nua and he told me and my family the amazing news that I would be blessed to receive an offer from University of Southern California.”

Being from Florida and still early in the recruiting process, Simon does not have a ton of knowledge on USC, but he has watched them as a kid and has always liked what he’s seen.
