Five-star QB recruit Julian Lewis schedules another visit with UGA

Can Georgia football get Julian Lewis to flip from USC

The Georgia Bulldogs continue to heavily pursue five-star quarterback Julian Lewis, who is committed to the USC Trojans.

Lewis attended a Georgia spring practice and has upcoming visits with Colorado (March 22) and USC (March 30). Lewis’ next trip to Georgia is set on May 31, and it will be an official visit.

The five-star prospect recently reclassified from the class of 2026 to the class of 2025. Lewis plays high school football for Carrollton High School in Carrollton, Georgia. Lewis is rated the No. 2 quarterback and the No. 9 recruit in the country, per the 247Sports composite. The 6-foot-1, 185-pound quarterback is the third-ranked recruit in Georgia.

Last season, Lewis passed for 3,094 passing yards, 48 touchdowns and only two interceptions. Lewis was named as the MaxPreps National Sophomore of the Year for his efforts in 2023, leading Carrollton to a 11-2 season and 7A quarterfinals appearance.

The five-star will not technically have a junior season. Lewis caught the eyes of college football recruiters with his amazing freshman season at Carrollton. Lewis helped Carrollton reach the 7A state final and set a state final record with 531 passing yards in a loss.

Georgia football has a strong pitch for recruiting quarterbacks. The Bulldogs have 15 first-round picks the past two years.

Top QB recruit Julian Lewis schedules Georgia football visit

Five-star QB Julian Lewis schedules another visit to Georgia

The 2025 cycle is beginning to take shape after Georgia reeled in the No. 1 recruiting class of 2024. One of the biggest priorities for the Bulldogs is five-star quarterback Julian Lewis, who is currently committed to USC.

The five-star prospect recently reclassified from the class of 2026 to the class of 2025. The Carrollton High School (Carrollton, Georgia) standout is rated as the No. 2 quarterback and the No. 8 recruit in the country, per 247Sports Composite.

Lewis has scheduled another visit to the Bulldogs for March 14 after most recently visiting Athens on Feb. 3. He will also visit Alabama (March 8), Auburn (March 16), Colorado (March 22) and USC (March 30).

After an outstanding freshman season for Carrollton High School in 2022, the 6-foot-1, 185-pound quarterback continued to impress with a special season as a sophomore. Lewis passed for 3,094 passing yards, 48 touchdowns and only two interceptions. Lewis was named as the MaxPreps National Sophomore of the Year for his efforts in 2023, leading Carrollton to a 11-2 season and 7A quarterfinals appearance.

The Bulldogs were included in Lewis’ top eight schools before he committed to the Trojans on August 22. It’s clear that he is still considering his options with the number of visits he plans to take this spring.

USC quarterback commit Julian Lewis visits Georgia and Kirby Smart, but nothing happens

It seems Julian Lewis is taking the opportunity to visit other schools, but he isn’t rethinking his choice to attend USC.

USC quarterback commit Julian Lewis goes to high school in Carrollton, Georgia. Therefore, the fact that Lewis recently paid a visit to Kirby Smart and the University of Georgia football program will certainly receive some attention. Lewis tweeted out a photo of his visit with Georgia’s coaching staff. People will wonder just how significant this visit is.

Colorado and Deion Sanders have expressed interest in Lewis. This Georgia-based product is visiting an in-state school which won back-to-back national championships this decade. Is this a reflection of real intrigue in the world of recruiting? Is Lewis having genuine second thoughts about USC? Or is Lewis merely going on a sightseeing tour and taking visits just to get a taste of what’s out there, and nothing more?

A survey of the landscape would suggest — if not outright indicate — that Lewis is indeed taking in the sights but is not seriously rethinking USC as his destination. He is looking at the storefronts but is not doing any actual shopping.

USC QB commit Julian Lewis signs NIL deal

Julian Lewis is getting deals done.

2025 USC commit and five-star quarterback Julian “Juju” Lewis has signed an NIL partnership deal with Alo Yoga, per On.3.com.

Alo Yoga also has deals with Caleb Williams and J.J. McCarthy, among other athletes.

USC commit Julian Lewis announces he will be a spring enrollee in 2025

USC could have a spring QB battle in 2024. It will have one in 2025.

Julian Lewis, previously the top-ranked quarterback prospect in the 2026 class, made a significant announcement earlier this week. He revealed that he would reclassify to the 2025 class. Lewis confirmed speculation when he more recently announced that he would not only sign a year earlier but also become an early enrollee. This move has set the stage for a captivating quarterback battle at USC.

Entering the 2024 spring season, USC is placing its bets on redshirt junior Miller Moss as the presumed frontrunner to lead the Trojans as the starting quarterback in 2024. The general consensus is that Moss solidified his position as QB1 for the fall after delivering a masterful performance in the Holiday Bowl. He completed 23 out of 33 passes for an impressive 372 yards and six touchdowns against a formidable Louisville defense. Lincoln Riley’s postgame statement further solidified Moss’s standing, hinting that his skills may have dissuaded potential transfers from coming to Los Angeles.

Despite Riley’s assertion, Jayden Maiava, the celebrated Mountain West Freshman of the Year, decided to commit to the Trojans. Maiava’s heroics began when he came off the bench early in the season, leading the UNLV Rebels on a remarkable comeback against the Vanderbilt Commodores, overcoming a 17-point deficit in Week 3. From then on, there was no looking back for Maiava. With him as the starting quarterback, UNLV achieved a 7-2 record, earning him Second Team All-Mountain West honors. At 6-4 and 220 pounds, he stands tall in the pocket with a big arm. He’s also athletic. He shows the ability to keep the ball and run with power and speed.

While Moss is technically eligible in 2025, he will probably move on to the NFL following the 2024 season. This creates an opportunity for a traditional quarterback competition between Maiava and Lewis in the spring of 2025.

2025 QB and USC commit Julian Lewis set to visit Colorado and Deion Sanders

USC fans shouldn’t be worried about this.

Five-star quarterback Julian Lewis plans on visiting Colorado next weekend January 27 and 28.

Buffaloes Wire has more on this story:

“Lewis, who committed to USC in August, also plans on visiting Auburn this upcoming weekend and Georgia in early February, the report stated. While Lewis remains a Lincoln Riley pledge, he should be on flip watch moving forward.

“After reclassifying from the 2026 class earlier this week, the 6-foot-1, 185-pound Lewis is now the second-ranked 2025 QB, per the 247Sports Composite.

Colorado football currently has the No. 106 recruiting class in college for the 2024 cycle, according to 247Sports, and has only signed six commits through the high school ranks in that class. Deion Sanders and the Buffs are in the top 20 in the transfer portal rankings, but they clearly need to beef up their recruiting for the 2024 and 2025 class through the prep ranks.

Should USC fans be worried about this development? Probably not. Colorado took such a big hit late last season that the Buffaloes’ reputation is at low ebb right now. This seems like a curiosity visit by Lewis more than anything else, not a serious reconsideration of his plans.

Georgia football set to host five-star USC commit, nation’s No. 2 QB Julian Lewis

Georgia football is pushing hard for in-state quarterback recruit Julian Lewis, who recently reclassified from the 2026 class to the 2025 cycle.

Lewis committed to USC in August, but he is still scheduling visits, including ones to Georgia, Colorado and Auburn, per On3’s Chad Simmons. The five-star quarterback is saving his last visit for the Georgia Bulldogs on Feb. 3. Lewis has a Jan. 20 visit with Auburn and a Jan. 27 visit with Deion Sanders and Colorado.

Lewis (6 feet, 1 inch, 185 pounds) plays for Carrollton High School (Georgia). He was named Georgia’s Gatorade Player of the Year in 2023 after helping Carrollton to a 11-2 record and a 7A quarterfinals appearance. Lewis completed 186-of-280 passes (66.4%) for 3,094 yards with 48 touchdowns and two interceptions.

The Bulldogs are in play for Lewis considering his ties to the state and the impending changes to the USC Trojan’s staff. USC quarterbacks coach Kliff Kingsbury is reportedly interviewing for the Chicago Bears’ offensive coordinator role.

Here’s a look at Lewis’ record-breaking playoff performance in 2023:
