During his bye week press conference, Washington Huskies coach Jedd Fisch said that his coaching staff would begin to hit the road on Thursday to do some in-person recruiting. Defensive backs coach John Richardson was prepared, extending an offer to three-star cornerback Madden Riordan on Thursday morning.
Riordan, a 5-foot-11, 150-pound prospect who attends Sierra Canyon High School in Chatsworth, California, is committed to coach Lincoln Riley and the USC Trojans and has been since November of 2023. He holds 14 offers, including Miami, Oklahoma, Tennessee, and Texas A&M, and took unofficial visits to both Georgia and UCLA in the spring, but has shown no signs of wavering on his commitment.
“I know it’s early in the process with me being just a sophomore, but there is no other school I want to be at other than USC,” Riordan told 247Sports’ Brandon Huffman when he committed. “This is my dream school from when I was young, and I’ve always wanted to be a Trojan.”
247Sports has Riordan ranked as the nation’s No. 28 cornerback in the 2026 class and could be rising quickly, as he’s tallied 7 interceptions so far this season.
Blessed to say I have received an offer from the University of Washington!! 💜💛#GoHuskies @GregBiggins @BrandonHuffman @adamgorney @ChadSimmons_ @bruce_bible @CoachJRich @SierraCanyonFB pic.twitter.com/R4iNSSI8oW
