USC Trojans land four-star safety from Georgia, Kendarius Reddick

Doug Belk flips a UCF commit from the state of Georgia.

Four-star safety Kendarius Reddick has given a verbal commitment to join the USC Trojans’ 2025 recruiting class.  Reddick is proof of how hard defensive backs coach Doug Belk and the rest of the USC coaching staff are hitting SEC country in this year’s high school recruiting class.  Reddick hails from Thomasville, Georgia, a state that USC has had mixed success in over the past few years.

Here’s what Trojans Wire’s Donovan James had to say back in June when Reddick visited the Trojans:

“Reddick was committed to UCF since February, when he flipped his commitment from Auburn, who he’d previously been committed to since October 2023.”

“Listed at 5-foot-11 and 170 pounds, the industry-generated 247Sports Composite has Reddick as the No. 108 player, No. 7 safety and No. 12 player from the state of Georgia in 2025.”

“In his first three seasons of football, Reddick had 157 tackles, five interceptions, five tackles for a loss and two sacks at Thomas County Central High School in Georgia.”

USC continues to flip commitments from the South, and this flip has both Georgia and Florida connections.

The Trojans now hold four commitments from the state of Georgia in the current class, and all of them are four-star prospects according the the 247Composite Rankings. Three are on the defensive side of the ball. USC currently has 17 verbal commits from the Class of 2025. Reddick joins Carde Smith, Shamar Arnoux, Matai Tagoa’i, Jadon Perlotte, Romero Ison, Harry Dalton III, Hayden Lowe, Trestin Castro, Gus Cordova, Willi Wascher, Riley Wormley, Hayden Lowe, Elijah Vaikona, Corey Simms, Daune Morris, Tanook Hines, and Julian Lewis
