Lewis, the Carrollton High School player who is the No. 6 QB (32 overall) in the 2025 class, has been committed to USC for over a year. However, is it a sure thing? Well, Lewis’ actions created doubts among college football fans when he arrived in Indiana for an official visit in May this year.

Currently sitting at an 8-0 start, Lewis has impressed everyone with his performances. Numbers are staggering. 1,843 yards and 28 touchdowns. Above all, his completion rate is 77% so far this year.
