Bear Alexander's USC Official Visit Photo Shoot
The much anticipated Bear Alexander USC Official Visit began Friday night after arriving in the afternoon. On Saturday he spent some time at Lincoln Riley’s home in Palos Verdes Estates and then made his way to the Los Angeles Memorial Coliseum. That’s where the official visit photo shoots for the Trojans take place.
One thing we can say with absolute certainty is, USC fans interested in the recruiting process have been following Alexander’s every move the past 24 hours. Below are group of photos Alexander shared on Instagram this evening. They were obviously from the Coliseum.
For those who pay attention to every detail, Alexander has swapped his old Instagram profile photo with one from his USC visit.
BEAR’S USC OFFICIAL VISIT PHOTO SHOOT
2023 USC Defensive Line Makeover
USC is hosting a major visitor this weekend in former Georgia defensive lineman Bear Alexander. Alexander arrived on Friday for a April 21-23 official visit with Lincoln Riley and the Trojans.
The 6-foot-3, 305-pound defensive lineman is a huge target for USC and the top uncommitted player available in the transfer portal. Per On3 Alexander’s the No. 17 overall player and No. 1 defensive lineman to go into the portal this offseason.
Alexander finished his true freshman season as a role player along the Georgia defensive line. He made an impact in the national championship game, finishing with two tackles for loss, including a sack.
Last season Alexander saw action in 12 games. He had nine total tackles, including two sacks. He signed with Georgia as the nation’s No. 43 overall prospect and No. 7 defensive lineman in the 2022 recruiting class.

USC is moving quickly here. Alexander told On3 this past Saturday that he planned to enter the transfer portal. His name officially appeared early this week. From the time news broke that he would go into the portal, USC emerged as a potential landing spot, alongside Texas. The Longhorns recently landed a commitment from Minnesota defensive tackle transfer Trill Carter.
Based on what we’re hearing, USC will be hard to beat with signing Alexander. Typically commitments come fairly quickly. Most recruiting processes for transfers last less than two weeks.
Later today we hope to have more details on where things stand with USC and Alexander. So, stay tuned at WeAreSC. But we’ll provide a brief breakdown of what USC’s defensive line makeover looks like. USC added Jack Sullivan, Anthony Lucas, Kyon Barrs and we’ll include true freshman Sam Greene in this article. Greene will get significant reps this season.
USC’s front seven will be vastly improved regardless of who’s added, but a player of Alexander’s potential would make the offseason retooling of the USC defense appear to be a roaring success. Only time will tell, but check back later for THE LATEST on Bear Alexander.
