Southern Cal sent an offer to Tua\u2019one back in March. Then the four-star recruit made his first unofficial visit on June 11. Tua\u2019one\u2019s relationship with inside receivers\/tight ends coach Chad Savage and USC\u2019s history of developing and sending wideouts to the NFL are key factors in his decision.<\/p>\n
\u201cUSC is a national brand with a huge history, especially at my position,\u201d Tua\u2019one told Kendell Hollowell of USC Trojans On SI<\/a>. \u201cThe combination of academics, player development, and the opportunities that come with being in LA is intriguing. The way they use versatile athletes stands out to me.\u201d<\/p>\n Although USC\u2019s history is strong, Tua\u2019one\u2019s ties to Florida might be stronger.<\/p>\n Miami\u2019s Recruiting History With Tua\u2019one Jan 19, 2026; Miami Gardens, FL, USA; Miami Hurricanes head coach Mario Cristobal with linebacker Wesley Bissainthe (31) against the Indiana Hoosiers during the College Football Playoff National Championship game at Hard Rock Stadium.

The Hurricane\u2019s 2025 season and the amount of alumni that made an appearance during a camp also impressed Tua\u2019one.<\/p>\n \u201cI feel like it\u2019s getting there for sure,\u201d Tua\u2019one told Gorney about Miami becoming the frontrunner. \u201cIf everybody trusts in the coaches and trusts in what [Mario Cristobal] can do then he can bring it back to what it used to be. Last season they showed a little bit of what they can do.\u201d\u00a0<\/p>\n This wouldn\u2019t be the first time the Hurricanes pried away a receiver from the Trojans this year<\/a>. Four-star receiver Eli Woodard (class of 2027) originally committed to USC back in February. Then on May 19, Woodward announced his decommitment from Southern Cal.<\/p>\n On June 30, the four-star wideout announced his commitment to Miami.\u00a0<\/p>\n Tua\u2019one\u2019s Possible Impact on the Trojans\u2019 Receiver Room\u00a0\u00a0 Oct 11, 2025; Los Angeles, California, USA; USC Trojans wide receiver Ja’Kobi Lane (8) is congratulated by wide receiver Makai Lemon (6) after catching a touchdown pass in the first half at United Airlines Field at the Los Angeles Memorial Coliseum.

He currently has national rankings of No. 79 (247Sports) and No. 76 (On3\/Rivals), position ranking at No. 11 and is currently the No. 3 player in the state of Utah.<\/p>\n In the 2024-2025 season, the 6-1, 185 pound receiver split time on both sides of the ball per MaxPreps. Tua\u2019one threw for 76 yards and a touchdown on four attempts and rushed for 31 yards on two carries. As a wideout, Tua\u2019one brought in 24 receptions for 371 yards and four touchdowns.\u00a0<\/p>\n On special teams, Tua\u2019one served as a punter and returner. He finished the year with 94 yards on kickoff and 168 yards off of punt-returns. The four-star recruit also got reps at cornerback. <\/p>\n His tape shows that he could be a speedster at the next level. Taking screens to the house, beating a corner on a fade or go-routes and explosive first step are impressive tools Tua\u2019one has. His yards-after-catch might be his greatest strength as he can out run defenders or pick up crucial yards on third-down situations. His hands are reliable and can get up for 50-50 balls too. <\/p>\n Sign up to our free newsletter <\/a>and follow us on Facebook<\/a>, and X<\/a> for the latest news. <\/p>\n![\"USC](\"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/us-fl\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/07\/01kwhz2x2fkhb8vr55s4.jpg\" "\\"USC")
