Former USC, Ole Miss TE Michael Trigg commits to Baylor

Former USC and Ole Miss tight end Michael Trigg has committed to Baylor, he announced Friday.

The former top-150 recruit spent the 2021 season at USC, before spending the past two years at Ole Miss. After playing in the Pac-12 and SEC, Trigg is now headed to the Big 12.

Michael Trigg was ranked as a four-star recruit and the No. 4 tight end in the country in the class of 2021, according to the On3 Industry rankings.

The Tampa, Florida native appeared in six games as a true freshman, catching seven passes for 109 yards and a touchdown.

As a sophomore in 2022, Trigg appeared in seven games and made six starts, missing part of the season due to injury. He caught 17 passes for 156 yards and three scores in 2022.

Michael Trigg was named preseason All-SEC in 2023 but ended up only playing in three games. He caught four passes for 65 yards and a touchdown.

He will look to take his game to another level next season at Baylor with a program that is coming off of a 3-9 season.
